Hatton Learned From De La Hoya's Mistake With Pacquiao

[JSS]

And what if RH does come in at 150lbs and MP comes in at 148lbs (b/c that's what MP usually comes in at come fightnight) - so much for your size advantage - or what if they both weigh exactly the same come the evening of May 2? Riddle me that?

This is going to be a great fight! The more I think about it, the more a salivate. There is plenty for fans of each man to say..... "is yet to be proven above 135", "Ricky just gets hit to often", "Manny is not big enough", "Hatton doesn't have the head of foot movement to keep Manny out of distance", "Hatton applies never before seen preassure"..... hell I find myself playing a couple of scenerios in my head and I'm yet to see a true favorite in my eyes..... therefore I will be glue on May 2 and may the best man win......!

I like your word salivate men... I think this fight will be very explosive on the first three rounds but after that whoever adjusted well after that will surely win...

If hatton will bulk himself up to 154 as what he is saying, then he will be very slow for pacquiao.. The only chance he would have in order to win is to push pacquiao, hold him then hit him... That style of hatton is his best weapon because if not, then he will find it difficult to find his target...

And he's gonna learn his own mistakes against Paco. LoL. *****, i can't even wait for this fight. This is gonna be a pretty good one. Hatton ain't no punk, and always comes to fight. Paco is just a fcukin ball of fury ready to explode on someone.

I'm sure Pacquiao has hit people going backwards in his previous fights, except the opponent didn't have shot legs so it had no effect like it did on Morales in the 3rd fight. Pacquiao gets his power from forward momentum only. He's very weak on the back-foot, unlike someone such as Mayweather who is actually stronger going backwards.

Pacquiao is not really improved. He simply learned how to run better. He looked like **** against Marquez years ago, and he looked just as ****ty in the rematch except he was on his bike more. In round 12 against Marquez II, he was doing that same ol' jab jab left punch as he did 10 years ago. He thought he lost the fight (according to Pacquiao) and needed a knockdown in the 12th to win. He was desperate, and he went back to his old ways! He is not confident in his "new found" boxing ability at all. You'll see on May 2nd

Marquez always brings out the worst in Pacquiao and vice-versa, they're that evenly matched. That's why they're 1 and 2 on the P4P list. It's like Superman against a Kryptonite, for both ways. or whichever side you are on. JMM's power on both hands are so underrated because Pacquiao never went down. The Baby Bull and El Cepillo now knows better, they've never been stopped or KOed throughout their boxing career, until they met Dinamita...

... and Hatton ain't too shabby either, I just finished watching his highlights on HBO on Demand. They showed snippets of his fights against Collazo, Urango, Castillo, Floyd and Malignaggi in 6 minutes...

Start,

Hatton is 154 for EVERY fight at JWW.

There is no "bulk up". That is his natural weight.

I weigh around 150/160 and look nowhere near as ripped as RH or MP. If I got in the ring with either of those guys and had boxing ability any where near them I would have to order a new bumhole in advance. So it's not the weight, it's the power my friend and Hatton's got it in abundance!! Hatton KO 11
