Pacquiao vs. Hatton - Manny Says "I am Hungry To Win"

[GRUSTLER]

agreed hatton wouldnt dominate them in the same fashion because hatton is a different style of fighter...just like you said styles make fights and hatton and pac have two very different styles so theres no way he would have dominated them in the same fashion but he would have dominated them non-the-less

Manny Pacquiao said on 24/7 that him and Hatton share a similiar
style and that's why the fight is going to be explosive. Both are
very offensive and their coming to fight. Won't be too much defense
going on between the two. It's just going to boil down to who
can take the most punishment.

spoken like a true boxing fan and i am going to agree completely with you on this one if manny wins then he truely deserves to be p4p and i will give him his props as well...great post

Appreicate the words. I'm just not about excuses when it comes to
boxing or anything else in that matter. Everytime I went against my
gut I came up short. I called the Paul Williams/Winky Wright fight dead
on accurate so will see come May 2nd if my gut and research prevails.

come may 2nd, pacquiao will be in for a big surprise. he'll be amazed on how easy he'll take hatton apart. then, most hatonites will cry-out and look for excuses as usual.

I don't consider myslef a Hattonite but I do say that Hatton has a
chance to pull a big upset. Either way, I am not trying to make any
excuses for neither fighter because both should be well prepared to
enter the ring on May 2nd. I just don't want to read any excuses
posted by any of you guys when it's all said and done.

true and there's only one hitman......thomas hearns

Hahahaha! Thats whats up!

[Xcusemymood]

manny can not use the same excuse people gave oscar/erik. that manny was weight drained when he was knocked out by shots in the body. hence he moved 2 divisions up after that fyt...hear that people?? 2 divisions up!

u can't win any argument with these kind of people...what's gud/bad for one can't be applied to others.... what/ how do u call these kind of people?? and plenty of them here.....

wow really?

[K U Y I P]

ya a joke...HAHA...you dont know anything man while i agree with you that pac is an amazing fighter hes only had two fights above 130 and one was against not that heavy of a puncher in Diaz and then the next was against a weight drained de la hoya and if hatton is a joke then how come he only has 1 loss and that was when he moved out of his natural weight to challenege the p4p champ at the time...im not trying to down play the skill that pac has but i still dont think that he will be able to handle pac at this weight. and if you relaly think hatton is a joke then youre a moron and you dont know boxing

the answer to your question is also in your post mate.hatton never really gets out of his shell so to speak. most of his fights were at 140lbs and he never trully tests his skills against bigger elite fighters. ok, he fought twice at 147lbs but after absorbing a beating from pbf, he swore that he will never fight at that weight again.
