Thread: HATTON v PACQUIAO

Matchup of the year with the two most supported fighters on the planet going toe to toe in Las Vegas.

No way this can be anything but an absolute belter.


Obviously i want the Hitman to win being a Brit but Pac is one of my favourite fighters and always exites and gives his all and has the speed and skill to equalize Hattons size and strength advantage, having said that if Ricky is allowed to fight his type of fight by the referee then he'll bulldoze his way to victory and as far as i'm concerned forget Mr Mayweather training him because when under pressure from a man like Pacquiao your gonna resort to your basic instinct at some point during the fight and especially if things are not going to plan.

Ricky will try and box but he won't for a second out box Pac and Pac's footwork alone will be too much for him as he flies in and out of range whipping in super fast cutting combos which is the last thing a face with a history of bleeding like Rickys needs.

Only way i see the Hitman winning this is if the ref allows him to fight like he did against Kostya and he bullies and brawls his way to victory, grabs, holds etc.
It may not be what the purists want but it is effective and the only way i see Hatton winning this one.
