Manny Pacquaio wins the mental game at weigh in!!!

[Benny Leonard]

I think Hatton was more worried about getting rehydrated because he looked a bit tipsy.


For Pac: I actually don't think he smiled/laughed out of nerves but because he was actually relaxed and was enjoying himself. People need to stop looking at what "Science" always likes to tell us because that **** doesn't work for everybody.

I was watching videos from soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan laughing as they were shooting and being shot at. Afghan soldiers by the way were having a good time and showed no fear. "Studies" would probably say that isn't "normal" but what is "normal" for one person may not be for another.

There is also another video from Philly with kids getting shot at and they are laughing their ass off and joking that the shooters suck because they are missing.
They weren't even running away; they walked away.

He wasn't his normal self.

that dont mean ****, its a provin fact that when someobdy laughs like manny did its a sign of nerves.....hatton looked focused to me....while manny and roach were giggling like a little school girl

let them count out hatton...see what happens

Manny was laughing cause nobody told him that hattons pale ass skin was going to be brighter than all the lights shining on them......ha ha ha

I think you're right. I came to the conclusion that Hatton is nervous, he was stuttering his words, looking moody, and his body language was leaning away from Pacquiao at the face off.

Not that it's a bad thing -- he's human. You'd expect there to be some nerves.

But Pacquiao looked calm and collected. I don't get the feeling Manny is scared of Hatton. Sure, laughing can be a sign of nervousness. It can also be a sign that you're having fun or you think something is funny. Hatton was trying to intimidate Manny and the best thing he could have done was exactly what he did -- laugh about it.

Thanks. I was beginning to think I was the only intelligent person on here.

If staredowns and pre-fight bs won fights, Miranda would be undefeated.

Instead he got his ass KTFO more than once...

What about the guys that don't even look at their opponenets and then knock them the **** out in the ring?

Guess that **** doesn't even count to the poseurs.

You need to watch the weigh in before you comment. I am sorry.

I have bolded the irrelevant parts. To make it easier for people to skim over.

explain to me why the dwarf manny was wearing shoes and hatton wasnt?

[Benny Leonard]

if you never heard of nervous laughter then you're truly a moron. seems to me your idol pacman was ****ting brix and was nervous as hell.

There is such a thing but it isn't FACT for everyone in every situation. It's more likely with people that are unprepared and unfamiliar with what they are involved in.

I did. and it didn't seem unusual.

Some nerves before doesn't mean nerves during.

A lot of times once you get hit, it gets you in your groove.
