Can someone explain to me how Hatton is "bigger" than Pacman?

[Benny Leonard]

Every Category is in Place, nd please dont star some Floyd Bull **** again.

Ths is about hatton and Pacquiao

Just saying...you get my point now though?

Same thing I mentioned about Cotto vs. Clottey which is coming up soon. If Cotto loses, I want him to lose because Clottey was the better fighter and not becausee Clottey is a SMW by fight-time. I like Clottey and I've said that in the past, but I disagree with his weight increase tactics just like I was with Gatti (who was also one of my favorite fighters to watch). I want to see how good these guys really are when they fight people closer to their actual weight. .

It's the same thing with Pac vs. Hatton; I think their should be a "cap" on how much weight they can gain. I know my suggestions will probably never happen line by line but, what about a cap of no more than 5-9 pounds Max?
If Pac is 147, and Hatton is 149, that's very close.

And for Floyd, I said the same thing: If he starts showing up and rehydrating like the rest of the WW, say, 157+, he should have no excuse not to fight the WW fighters that do the same.

he is, just a small tank is all.

still a ****ing tank, lolz

Using this logic Diego "Chico" Corrales could have fought Tito and Roy Jones Jr and Mike Tyson. They're all 5'11. Can someone explain to me how Tito, Roy and Tyson are "bigger" than Chico?

They're all the same height and the difference in reach is negligible between them. They should all fight each other as long as they weigh in at the same weight. It'll be an even match size wise. Right?

Nobody has said anything about not giving Clottey credit becuse of weight!!!!!!!!

[$partacus]

NO, he's bigger because he will most likely rehydrate to 155+ on fight night.
Pacquiao only weighs 147 on fight night.

yes he do, he always weight fight night, 153-158

He was 152 on fight night against Malignaggi, I think the only fight he weighed over 154 was for the Collazo fight at WW.

Simple, pacquiaos Fight Night weight 148 hattons 158, and hatton is a thicker guy.

He is a half a inch taller than pacquiao.

The only phiscicall category that Pacquiao is bigger is reach!!!!!!!

by structure maybe.

Hatton has smaller biceps, chest, neck, wrists, calves, thighs are the same.

the only thing Hatton has on Pacquiao is larger fists. He's not bigger, Pacquiao is stocky to but comes in with less fat.

Hatton isn't taller either, we have seen them side by side and Hatton never has a hieght advantage, he actually looks shorter. I've seen both 5'6 and 5'7 listed for him, considering he's shorter than Mayweather who is 5'7 or 5'8..he's probably 5'6, which is a half inch shorter than Pacquiao.

Hatton doesnt come in at 158 , he is at his best around 152-154 they are the weights he came in with Floyd and Castillo , Hattons about 4 pd bigger than Manny at fight time , that could be bone density or muscle or a number of things from fluid to a thick scull , there aint much between them a little to Hatton side .

[them_apples]

Hatton started at 140, Pacquiao started at 106.

yea but he was bloody 16 years old when he fought at 106. I was only 110 lbs when I was 16.

People grow, since when does a grown man weigh as much as a puny 16 year old?

Pacquiao even at 130 came to fight at 145, he's been growing ever since. Considering the guys bones are not small, I can't see why people think he's
"blown up". Pacquiao has thick wrists and ankles, a sign of a larger frame.

Some people grow quicker than others. Mike Tyson was over 200 lbs when he was 14.

Or fat, Pacquiao is at like 4% body fat.
