    once again, if hatton is 170lbs, pacquaio will still beat him because this isn't a wrestling match. its boxing.

      but hatton will make it a wrestling match. pac is screwed.

      Like I stated in my other thread, theres a boxer(Julius Long) who is 7'1 and 290lbs which means that he is "bigger" than almost every boxer in the world except for Valuev, yet his record is 15-12. size isn't as important in boxing as most ppl make it out to be.
      that must be why Pwill is getting offered fights left and right.

        Pacquiao has longer arms, but otherwise there is no significant size difference. They are both little guys...

        They'll weigh about the same on fight night.

            Hatton is thicker and a naturally stronger man. But Manny is faster.

              Hatton isn't thicker Manny is bigger in all measurements apart from height and fists.

                    Length matters to outside fighters.You're telling me reach and length matter on the inside?

                      Hatton is the bigger guy, he walks around at a FAR higher weight.
