    I was a little surprised but not jumping out of my seat with shock. I wanted Manny to win but wanted Ricky to last a few more rounds to make my PPV worth it.

        i knew pac would win it convincingly. tko stoppage by ref or the corner. I knew ricky's perceived size difference was a myth due to the fact that ive seen video of pac sparring with junior middleweights specifically vanes martirosyan......


        & this was when pac was still at 126.



        as for the ko, i couldnt even celebrate as i feared for hatton's life.

          I was mostly leaning towards Pacquiao leading up to the fight. Then I saw the weigh in and Pacquiao looked absolutely shredded and un****withable. That convinced me he was knocking Hatton out. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly, though.

            I predicted PAC dishing out a long one-sided beatdown and slaughter Flattened somewhere between the 9-12th round or maybe win via wide UD

            I thought the first four rounds was gonna be fun, and then PAC was gonna kick it up a notch and shut Hatton down, but, I thought Flattened was tough and sturdy enough to survive the early onslaught only to get sent to the slaughterhouse in the championship rounds.

            I was at the MGM Grand Arena and I was kind of p*ssed, I wanted PAC to torture Flattened, not just massacre him(and I lost my bet too). It was fun seeing all the Brits all around me, some of 'em literally had tears running down their cheeks.

            What y'all saw in the news of how the British crowd were, it didn't tell the whole story. They were startin' **** all over the place, it wasn't just their chants of Ricky anymore, they were just flatout taunting everyone(men, women and children).

            But, as soon as the KO happened, not only did they shut the hell up, some of 'em were walking up to PAC fans and congratulating them. I was like WTF.

              I think a lot things played into Hatton's quick KO by Pacquiao 1.) Losing 40lbs+ to make 140 and weakening his chin 2.) New trainer in Mayweather Sr. 3.) Not listening to Mayweather and using head movement....this all adds up to Hatton rushing-in and doubling Pacquiao's power.

                .

                He looked drained to me as well. I was actually thinkin' of changing my bet to an early ko inside of 6 rounds, but, the Tszyu and ***** fights were messin' with me, he took some clean hard punches from both those guys and he just kept comin'.

                I ran into one of the members from PAC's entourage after the fight(a former boxer). He was walkin' towards the MGM sportsbooks to collect his $$$. I asked him why he thought it was gonna end early, he said, 'Cause Hatton looked drained at the weigh-in. And the difference between PAC and the Tszyu/***** fights is that, PAC is a combo puncher whereas those two were looking to land one punch at a time.

                In the end though, whether it was an in-shape Flattened or not, PAC is simply levels above him.

                  Thought Hatton had no business @ 140 and would lose easily. Still was amazed how physically strong Pac looked.

                    for me as expected. i predicted rd 5 or less. And this was when Pac was still campaigning at 130. I said it will be so easy for Pac. Check this post I have in 2007 at esb.

                    And, yes, I speak English
                    I bet my House, My soul, My name, Pac KAYOs Hatton. I just watch PBF_Hatton in Slowmo. Hatton will turn into English Pinata. That will be Pac's Pinata for his 30th bday next year. Mark my words on This. This fight could happen end of next year or early 2009. Pac will retire Hatton. Is there any Bigger fight for hatton other than Pac 140 & Below???? This will happen... I can't wait.

                    After Pac retires Hatton, Floyd will come out of retirement just to fight Pac. Floyd got old & rusty, Pac got Bigger Physically, Pac will have a better chance, I give him 50-50 chance.

                    DLH-Pac only if DLH can make 147.

                      ODH would kill Pac. If Hatton fights him, it would be a mauling. Hatton is way to strong for Manny. I know you don't see it but Manny is a really little guy. A good big guy beats the **** out of a good little guy 9 times out of 10. That is a fact.

                      If you actually liked Manny, you would not wish for him to jump up in weight anymore than he is already doing.



                      I'm following Manny coz I believe he will be one the Greatest. I have no control over him. I'm just predicting who he will be fighting in the future. I based it on what I saw in Pacquiao and his potential opponents in the Ring. Even with his Draw with JMM and his loss to Morales, I never Doubted him. MAB, Ledwaba, Sasakul, Julio etc those Fights make me a Believer.

                      But when he KOed Morales that's the time I predicted that he will go for Hatton and PBF. I also thought that he will go for Chico or castillo First but Chico Died and Hatton eliminates Castillo. Pac already Cleaned up all the Legends from 112- 130.

                      At 135 there's no Legend there. Casa is the closest but JMM will eliminate him.(we will see Pac-JMM 3 soon) At 140 there's only Hatton and he's ready to be taken out by Pac. Maybe DLH and PBF in the future too.

                      I want to see Pac's full potential. That means taking risk and taking Big fights. You Probably think PBF retirement is Great coz he avoids Margarito and Cotto so he won't get hurt because you like him too much. But can you call PBF Great if he never fight these bigger guys???

                      Pac is Great coz he keeps Challenging himself. And he still wins not like Hatton who tries but loses and doesn't look good when he moves up in weight.
