Manny is indeed fast......
But his lack of defense will get him in all sorts of trouble because Hatton knows how to close in on a fighter. Manny has the speed advantage over Hatton & that's pretty much it, but Hatton is fast too, not as fast as Manny but he's NO Diaz or Oscar. It takes Manny an accumulation of punches to do damage & I'm sure that Hatton will not let Manny beat up on him like Diaz & Oscar did. Manny's going to be in an action packed fight like the one he was in with Marquez. I like Manny & think he is a very good fighter but not that convinced that he is going to come into Hatton's domain at 140 & make a fool out of him and knock him out when no one else could.
Manny takes a punch to give a punch. Marquez was countering him all day & all Manny could do was wait for an opening to get off. Not comparing Hatton/Marquez but if Hatton can get Manny into a brawl out, then the advantage could be in Ricky's favor. Manny has yet to be tested by an elite challenge above 130 (Diaz/De La Hoya don't count) so we really don't know how Manny will do against someone as aggressive and strong as Hatton, so all these Manny's gonna kill Hatton posts? Not buying it.
