At 140 does Malginaggi have a better chin then Pacquiao?...Think about it...

[J.B.moneY.]

This thread is a joke, using Pacquiao's losses when he was 16 years old as a reason why Hatton will stop him. Pacquiao hasn't hit the canvas in ages, the Barrera fight was a slip.

One of the so called knock outs was from a low blow, and not a body shot..even Mayweather sr. doesn't know this.

It's so funny the reasons Hatton is using. They must be watching tapes from 1995.

hey weetard....can you read or what?...i never brought pacs body shots.....freddie roach is the one bring that up saying hes taking to many body shots in sparring against antillion....pac thinks hes some heavy weight....reality sets in after a couple of hatton body shots...pac for your own good stay at the little leagues of jr, feather and fetherweight...or you can always fight washed up guys again like de la hoya or zab judah could be a good one too

Hatton didn't knock Malignaggi out, his corner threw in the Towel.

exactly.. paulie was never out of his feet on that fight...

can you see reality though, he would have been down several times if he wasnt holding himself up against hatton...please paulie could have gone down at least 3 or 4 times in that fight if it wasnt for holding

classic... a hatton fan accusing another boxer of too much holding.

he was holding to prevent further damage... but never was out of his feet.. everytime hatton lands a perfect punch.. he hold for his dear life.. you can see his dismay when his corner stops the fight.. he wants to finish the 12 even when he have no chance of winning at all..

well its really a myth that hatton holds all the time...he gets the rep cuz of the tzyu fight....all his other fights the opponents were holding

[Orgasmatron]

True that Manny hasn't really been hit above 130. But he's taken some really good shots from JMM , got wobbled and recovered pretty quickly.

Try to make a poll. I want to see what teh neutral fans have to say.

What were Paulie's options except to hold on? He had a ****ed up hand, so even if he'd thrown punches to keep Hatton away the punches wouldn't have hurt. Holding was the only option he had.

Agree with this.


Paulie was holding on from early rounds, but it wasn't for dear life, it was because he had virtually no offense and no confidence in his hands to put out the combinations he needed to outscore Hatton - the only work he could do was limit the damage coming at him. Paulie can be cheeky with the holding and inside fuckery when he needs, I think he would have used some of that against Hatton anyway, but with 2 functioning hands he would have been able to mix it up with some notable offense, featherfisted or not, it would've made a significant difference to how the fight looked. Even the light work he did on Hatton in the first couple had him moused up under one eye and a little puffy.







Paulie's proven he can take flush, hard shots and keep his feet (most times) and his awareness (all times). We haven't seen Pac have to take a really good one above 130 yet, but I think his chin can stand up to a solid shot from Hatton. Hatton's got to land one, anayway, and I don't really see clean punching as his route to winning the fight. I see inside attrition, suicide bombing into Pac's chest, grabbing and hitting, holding Pac's head down to get uppercuts off, nasty **** like that. But Ricky says he's going to set traps and out-time him, which means he's pretty much dead if true. Maybe he'll be able to de-program in time enough to revert, then pray the official is permissive enough (because if he isn't, Ricky's up **** creek).

lets turn the tables a bit now JB...

u still remember lazcano wobbling ur man towards the latter stages of their fight? it happened twice... now, imagine if it was pacquiao doing that?

hatton's defense is as weak as canada's ozone layer now man, while pacquiao's has been improving quite steadily...

this would be a great fight no matter what...

... and oh yeah, why are u comparing malignaggis chin @ 140 to something non existent? pacquiao has not fought @ 140 man... try harder next time...

[PrettyBoyRoy 88]

Pacquiao's chin has not been tested above 130. Diaz is a decent Light hitting Lightweight that was cherry picked by Pacquiao. What's Diaz' record 34 wins and like 16 or 17 KOs? Diaz has also been KOd by another light-hitter in Kendall Holt(only has like 12 KOs) I think in the 7th or 8th round, earlier round than Pac. Then DLH didn't even touch Pacman at all. So last time Pacmans' chin was tested was at 130 and JMM did wobble him.
