That's funny because I have heard Hatton numerous times state that he will be on the front foot constantly, bullying Pac all night but with better defence and more thought. That's all Mayweather Snr is helping him to do and it will win him the fight..Comment

It surprises me how people can't see with their eyes and realise that there is a BIT more to Hatton than just someone who rushes in and hits and holds. Sure, that might be 70% of his gameplan at times (or 90% in some recent fights) but there is a BIT more method to his madness than that.
Take the first round of the Floyd fight (yeah, I know, he got KTFO, lamo, pwn, pwn - immaterial to my point, so don't mention it) he held back to avoid getting into Floyd's traps, used a feint, speed and underrated footwork to land a flush jab on Floyd's chin.
Even lesser performances like the Maussa fight saw him get the KO off the back of a feint.
Obviously I realise that there's only two forms of boxers out there - ATGs and bums - but Hatton's a bit better than given credit for.Comment

So is every other boxer out there. Just look at Klitschko for instance and the unfair labels he receives.It surprises me how people can't see with their eyes and realise that there is a BIT more to Hatton than just someone who rushes in and hits and holds.

Agree: the object is to get inside and Sr. knows if the Old Hatton shows up, which is to charge forward with one shot and clinch, he'll get busted up.
I doubt Hatton is going to try to be JMM. The game-plan might be what I said in another post.
Basically, unless you look up my post or I go find it....Hatton will be fighting or try to fight like Pre-Tszyu with additions from Sr....except, if he does get inside, he can bully Pac around to throw him off mentally.Last edited by Benny Leonard; 04-25-2009, 05:52 AM.Comment

Very true. Pac can throw rapid punches in a straight-line. That's where angles and sweeping to the side for Hatton come in handy along with the jab he used last time out. Use your own combos. Once your in, **** to the body and wear Pac out.
For Pac: move, and keep putting punches together. A good weapon from Pac now is the right-hook.Comment
