Comments Thread For: Hatton: Pacquiao Looking Better Than Ever Since KO Loss

[Webber676]

Some observations:

1. The best thing that could happen to Pacquiao has been that knockout loss to Marquez because as a result he has refined his style to one that give him a better chance against Mayweather and if he reach that feat, he will further become an instant global phenomenon that will send him cracking top fighter of all time list.

2. Mayweather is hands down the best defensive and smarter figher today however I doubt his toughness and durability can surpass that of Bradley at this point in his career. Pacquiao overcoming those strengths of Bradley the way he did just shows that he can give a world of trouble to Mayweather and that if Mayweather doesnt come in bether shape than he did in the Maidana's fights he will get himself in trouble.

In all honesty, outside of Bradley Pacquiao's competition since being KO has been sub par. Floyd is a different animal and we'll see how Manny deals with that.

Bradley is a better fighter than Floyd has fought in years. And Manny beat him twice.

Bradley is not better @ ww than jmm, mosley, and maidana....at jww Bradley was better... He hasn't faced many top welterweights... Only Manny n jmm...jmm is 40...idk if he can beat a top welter not named PAC...Bradley gotta get in their with porter, brook, Thurman or khan before we act like he is an accomplished welter

At face value, Bradley can compete with any WW. But you don't see that do you.

Its not like he has been fighting the murderer's row since he got ktfo...Bradley is a solid top ten ww contender with no power and Rios and Algeiri were confidence builders. I wouldn't say better than ever considering both featherfisted guys hit him with clean rights several times and Bradley even rocked him. not a good sign IMO

Bradley's punch barely did anything. It sure didn't change the outcome of the fight. Manny took that shot well and dominated the rest of the fight like it never happened. I don't know why people keep bringing that up.

Don't try to use Marquez's age to take credit away from Bradley's win. He beat an ATG fair and square and you gotta give him props for that.

Pacquiao himself suffered a vicious sixth round knockout loss to Juan Manuel Marquez in 2012. Since that loss, he's beaten Brandon Rios, Timothy Bradley and Chris Algieri - and Hatton says the Filipino superstar has looked better and better. On the other end, Hatton has noticed a physical decline in Mayweather based on his performances against Marcos Maidana in 2014.
