Pacman is done...He cant fight going backwards Sr. nailed it.

who did hatton fight with the strenght/power of pac?plus the speed and southpaw stance?

Collazo is alot stronger and bigger than Pac. Plus he was a southpaw. He probably has more impact in his shots than Pac. Hatton struggled against Collazo, due to the inablilty to bully around his opponent. Hatton's power shots also had a reduced effect against the bigger man - something Manny will find on May 2nd.

Mayweather has a limited punch output too so Hatton looked better than he was in that fight due to being more active and forcing the fight.

This is just plain dumb. Most of his wins lately are stoppages except for marquez (KD 4x) and barerra (who ran the entire fight). Pacquiao packs a punch thats for sure. Anyone who says he doesnt is just hating.

He packs a punch against smaller guys at 130 and below.

He couldn't KO a dead Oscar. Oscar quit because he nothing left to give and was waaayyy behind on points.

It took him 9 rounds of constantly battering David Diaz to put him down at 135.

If his power was so great above 130 he would have put them both to sleep within 4 rounds.

"What Ive noticed throughout his fights is that Manny can't fight going backwards, he has to be coming foward"

"Manny also backs up into the ropes in a straight line"

i've been saying this way before this fight... right after the first morales fight.

sounds like mayweather fans HOPING this fight atleast lasts the distance. God forbid Pacquiao puts Hatton away faster than God (aka Mayweather Jr.)

Besides the southpaw stance........i dont think they fight the same?....yes Pac will be force to back down on occasion.i doubt ricky avoiding all the punches when he rushes in though...and hattons chin aint really on JCC/Margarito/penalosa level............got a question though...if ricky starts to backdown, do you think its the begginning of the end for the hitman?

If you look at the tale of the tape Pacquiao is bigger than Hatton in most areas apart from height where Hatton has a measly 1 inch height advantage.

which mayweather fans are you referring to? I'm a big mayweather fan and I would be fine with pacquiao winning with a ko in the 1st round. generalizing on mayweather fans (considering that each pbf fan is distinctly different), is unfair.

You're right i haven't seen him throw a punch at 140, but i've seen him throw punches at 147 (the weight class above 140) and they destroyed De La Hoya and made him quit. So clearly he carries his power with him.
Secondly, Mayweather chose to fight that way, to draw Hatton in so he could land his hooks.

He never hurt Oscar once...and Oscar was weight drained..what dont you understand about that?
