      Here is a poll to start:

      Who has a better chance to win:

      Hatton (on the night he fought Tszyu) vs. Oscar (on the night he fought Pac)

      VS

      Pac (on the night he met Oscar) vs. Tszyu (on the night he met Hatton)?

        Same results IMO.

        Both faster.

          different preparations.............I go with an unproven PAC at 140 rather than a "mediocre" Hatton at 147. ... After May 2 i guess we can answer your question with a better perspective.

            which is the more impressive victory in the ole' resume?
            That should not effect anyone's opinion on which was a better win, rankings and odds are just perception and have nothing at all to do with what really matters which is a fighters abilities at a particular moment.

              in the hatton vs tszyu fight,tszyu was landing the cleaner punches so he was ahead on the scorecards supposedly IMO.the only reason why tzsyu quit his stool that i could think of is because he thought he coul'nt win a decision whatsoever and was wronged by the ref allowing hatton's excessive holding,etc.iwas not impressed with that but the castillo k.o was beautiful!
              i was'nt expecting manny to beat dlh at all!

                you also got to put in consideration as well tzyu was a legit fighter.....not taking anything away from manny he looked impressive.....but he fought a shot fighter that night compared to hatton.....people are so up on pacs win is because he beat a guy thats a legend....but at the time they fought pac beat a b or c level fighter in oscar.

                  dude hatton was ahead on all 3 judges scorecards...it was close but hatton was a head....and if tzyu had won the 12th all he could have hoped for was split loss at best

                    I had that fight 94-94 Through 10.

                    It was a very close fight., unlike Pac vs DLH, that was a shut out

                      i guessed it is fair to say a win is a win in this case!
