    Determining that against Hatton is a dubious since he is suscepitble to getting hit, the only way to really determine it is if pac was fighting someone like a mayweather. The way pac sets up, and the way he has looked lately is very much credited to the fact that his last 2 fights were against stationary targets, but someone like hatton isnt a good barometer because like i said, he can be hit and is often times there to be hit. That wouldnt impress me that much at this stage since juan lazcano was able to land big on him also. When mayweather was going to fight Hatton many of us made these claims, either way, Mayweather scored a knockout over hatton, even if Pacman did the same, it wouldnt make a difference, the result would be the same and nobody would be having anything over anyone.
    Come on now my friend, what better barometer can be used to measure such a thing than a common opponent in his prime?

      umm hatton outweighed him on fight night...considerably too (7-8 lbs i believe)


      and if you look at their builds you can see hatton is bigger

      Light welter has been hattons fighting weight since he was 17

      at 17 floyd was only a bantamweight, and floyd turned pro at 130

        Man, this is why Ricky Hatton will lose to Pacquaio, one because Pacquiao is super fast, and just how Floyd was killing him with his speed, Pacquaio will also. Number two, look at how Ricky's head was flying back and forth, when I was watching that fight it was so obvious to me that Ricky couldn't handle Mayweather's power and he felt he was going to get KO'd. Manny Pacquiao hits harder than Floyd and throws alot more so Ricky will hit the floor again.
        It was actually much more because Hatton was simply walking straight in with using a jab and without moving his head. Go watch again. He literally walks straight at Mayweather without doing anything. Really terrible strategy.

        If Mayweather Snr has done his part you will not see that happen against Pac. We'll see though. Great stuff by Mayweather, top performance.

              so would u agree IF MP wins against hatton, it will be much more impressive than floyd has done because hatton will come in as a better version of himself than the 1 who faced floyd?

I ain't his business adviser, I'm a fan of the sport, so I don't give a **** about how much he gets paid. I wanna see him beat the toughest comp. Like I said I don't like him anymore cuz he talked without follow thru.
                He broke promises to you. I understand your heartache.

                  Yeah.. Just like Norton and Frazier were common opponents for Ali and Foreman.

                  Mosley was a common opponent for Mayorga and Forrest

                      Mayweather's ability has nothing to do with the reason why ppl dislike him, he quit been a fighter and turned into a businessman, that's why. Wasted talent.
