    i doubt hatton will get off first. pac has the clear edge in handspeed. it all depends if the ref will let hatton rough pac up.

      That's one factor it depends on. Some others I can think of are:

      How much has Hatton's jab improved under Floyd Snr? Will he be able to jab his way in rather than rushing in face first as he did against Floyd Jnr?

      How much has Hatton's head movement improved? Will he be able to evade most of Pac's punches on his way in or will he have to take a pasting in order to get inside?

      Once he gets inside, will Pac be able to tie him up effectively and prevent him mauling? Or will he be able to turn him and get away from him that way?

      Will Hatton show more angles than he has up to now? If so, he has a much better chance of landing hard body shots once he does get inside.

      When Hatton does land solid punches, which he will at some pointl, how well will Pac take them?

        pac will box circles around hatton, pac has more speed and is the more versitle boxer, only thing hatton has is perhaps a slight advantage in power.

          pac's southpaw angles are gonna make it hard for hatton to connect, hatton will HAVE TO hold in hit to get any work done.

            If paulie can last 11 rounds against hatton, i think pacquiao will give hatton a long night... This fight would be great and i think Pacquiao have the slight advantage here...

            The only thing that hatton fought was bigger guys but we cannot compare their power to pacquiao... I cannot also say that pacquiao is more powerful than them... Since its hard to predict who is more powerful than who...

              Roach was just pissed at the trash talkin of Hatton and Mayweather Sr. I see Hatton starting out fairly well splitting the first 4 rounds with Pac but then Pac will start landing with regularity as Hatton wears down from all the shots that Pac lands on hatton as he tries to get inside. Pac TKO 10 he's just too fast he will land a lot of vicious combinations. If Hatton tries to box then he will get KO'd earlier!

                power isnt going to matter, what matters is speed and strength. pac has speed and hatton has strength.

                hatton is in trouble if pac is as strong as hatton though.

                  Pacman vs. Hitman

                  For me, this fight will just last within 3 to 5 rounds and the PACMAN will come-out victorious by TKO ... I said this because the HITMAN really
                  had a hard time fighting Southpaws and PACMAN is not just a lefthanded
                  fighter, He has more SPEED & POWER than the southpaws previously decisioned by HITMAN. And I think this will be same result happen when Erik "El Terrible" Morales decided to go early toe to toe with the PACMAN
                  and knocked him out in the 3rd round (PACQUIAO-MORALES III) . . .
                  the HITMAN just need to run to survive the early rounds . . .
