You think Hatton improved under FMS?

If Pac gets hit with the shot that hatton landed on Paulie in round two he goes down. there is nothing wrong with paulies chin and he was in ***** street from that shot.

pac hasn't been hit by a Superfeatherweight or higher so I rate paulies chin way higher than pac's.

not P4P obviously but in case you hadn't noticed this fight isn't P4P, it's in the real world where bigger fighters are capable of landing and taking harder shots than smaller fighters.

yep, you pretty much said it

paullies chin is better than pacs, he withstood cottos and hatton best shots

i know pac can hurt hatton, but hatton can definently hurt him back

the referee will be the deciding factor i feel

All that will go out the window when they meet.....

His speed and head movement look better when he's hitting the bag and working the pads, but will it translate into the ring on fight night? He looked like a new fighter before the Malignaggi fight, but aside from a slightly increased focus on the jab, he ultimately reverted back to his old ways.

Hatton is looking better with Sr. in training and will probably look better come fight night... the Mallignagie fight was after only being with him for 7 weeks so it is hard to see a complete change that's why he went back to his old ways.

The importance of Floyd Sr. is not only to rejuvenate Hatton or to improve him, but to come up with a strategy on how to defeat Pacquiao.

Oscar lost to Mosley by a very close decision. In the rematch, Oscar fought with an entire different gameplan and defeated Mosley, well, he didn't get the nod but most felt he won. Regardless, he performed much better under the guidance of Mayweather Sr. in his corner in the rematch.

In the fight against Malignaggi, Floyd Sr. instructed Hatton to throw his right hand over the top. The very next round, Hatton landed a huge right hand over Paulie's own punch which almost ended the fight right there. Floyd Sr. told him what to do, and more importantly, Hatton did what he was told to do.

Floyd Sr. is helping Hatton in so many ways. Hatton can go back to his old ways all he wants, but as long as Floyd Sr is telling him what to do, it will never be the same as what Hatton would have done with Graham.

That's exactly what Hatton does - he keeps coming forward no matter what. He is known for this. Against Mayweather he took some hard shots flush but just kept charging at him all night up till he got KO'd. Hatton respects no-ones power and will charge at Pacquiao for 3 minutes of every round, and that's why he will pose problems for Pac. Manny needs time and space to get in and out quickly, and he won't be able to do this against Hatton. He will have to dance circles around the ring and pot shot to keep Hatton off him, but he's no PBF and won't be comfortable doing this.

good post, that's how I see it going too. Ref will play a big part though. If Pac hangs/hugs on to Hatton the ref will split them and Pac will hit first.

I reckon Floyd snr is good for him , will definitely help with his mindset and will be better in the corner when the going gets rough , he is still hopping in and I think he will still hop onto punches , Mannys movement and accuracy will cause a lot of problems for Hatton .
