Ricky Hatton-Manny Pacquiao: Pre-SuperFight Report Card

[Alibata]

Hatton will win this fight fairly easy Imo.

Ill bet you lifetime ban on this website Manny wins.

[STEELHEAD]

intangebles- hatton A, pacquiao B

pacs a lefty. their styles clash
outcome altering headbutts could come into play here
more so than in most other fights!

[wengz2002]

This is a very tough fight for both fighters!
But I think PacMan will Win by a Late Round K.O. or a Wide Decision (116-112)...



The only way Hatton could win this fight is if he can hurt Pacquiao!

[FLY TY]

still not sure how manny has more power than hatton,the fight is at 140

The write ups on the fight seem to be very pro Pac which i disagree too, I also don't belive Pac has greater power than Hatton full stop never mind what weight there at.

He gives Hatton a B- for power but then goes on to say Hattons is the stronger guy. He seems a be confused does Cliff.

Anyways it going to be a classic match up which imo Hatton will come up trumps.. Well he best do anyway ive got fifty quid on him to win...

exactly the same ish i was thinking.....

You will see evidence tomorrow when Hatton is battered, cut up, and tentative to attack after tasting Pacs power. I promise you.

you may be right, hatton probably will be bruised and bloody, but I PROMISE YOU, he will be the one standing at the end of the fight....

[FLY TY]

maybe its just me...

even though i pick hatton to win, i can honestly say i'm not a fan of either fight...

BUT i find myself more pumped up and excited for this fight, than any fight i can remember, and that includes mosley-margarito and cotto-margarito...

****in' crazy....

I keep hearing everyone talk about Manny's blazing speed and power. Hi is not at 130 anymore and he hit Dela Hoya several times before he eventually hurt him-Dela Hoya was a dead man walking in the ring. Pacman is overrated when he throws combinations he is wild and doesn't protect himself. I agree with Mayweather Sr, when he says he looks like a novice.

I kinda laugh when Floys Sr said PacMan fighting style is like Amatuer!!!
If you think Pacquiao style is amateur, how much more can be said on Hatton?

If Pacquiao and Hatton have the same Speed & Power, I think PacMan fighting will beat Hatton fighting style~~~
If they fight 10 times, it will be 10-0 win for the PacMan~

The only thing why this fight has become very interesting it's because it didn't happen yet!

The only way Hatton can win this fight is by K.O.
He needs to hurt Manny!
He cannot out punch Pacquiao for sure~

its because he knows that once he throws punches his opponnt will surely eat those combos..its his style thats makes him # p4p boxer..

As for cliff, you like him because he is practically sucking pac off in every artical he writes.

I think you must be mixing him up with Ronnie. Cliff predicted Pac would only win by a narrow UD, which is how I see it, and how you've said in the past that you see it. OTOH most boxing experts are predicting Pac will win by KO (e.g. see here). So Cliff sees Hatton being a lot more competitive than the majority of boxing experts do. And if you look at the betting odds, Pac is the massive betting favourite.

And whatever you think of him the fact that he's on The Ring's ratings panel shows that he's generally considered to be one of boxing's most respected experts.

I wrestled with the pick here. Ricky is going to be in this fight big time. as to the attention to pac in recent weeks, if it were someone else attempting history in a way never seen before, I'd be all over explaining how that guy got there.
