    You're joking right? Pac is 10 times more elusive than Mayweather?? Mayweather's style is to fight on the back foot and move around the ring counter punching. Pacquiao can never claim to be good at fighting on the back foot, and likes to come forward alot more than Mayweather. Mayweather is defensively much better than Pac and just as quick. If Hatton was able to catch Floyd a few times early on, he is sure as hell gonna catch Pac.

    All Hatton needs to do against Pac is constantly move to his left, away from Pacquiao's left hand, and jab, jab, jab. If he does this, then Pac will need to over assert his left which will leave him open to the big shots from Hatton. Hatton can also come in and force Pacquiao backwards, take him to the ropes and fight on the inside. ODLH was able to take Pac to the ropes on a few occasions in their fight, and when he did he was able to hurt Pac with the few shots he landed. Imagine what a fit, prime Hatton will be able to do to him.

    Pacquiao's chin and body are more suspect than Hattons, especially at 140 against a stronger, bigger opponent and so I can see Pac getting knocked down a few times in this fight. No way is this gonna be easy for Pac...
    Yes your boy mayweather is elusive in a sense that he runs back= boring fighter to watch! If thats what you call elusive Hatton is in for a surprise.. When i mean elusive Pac will only use quick footwork to get out of harms way and just circle around his opponents. Thats a non-stop action exciting fighter!
