Pac vs Cassamyora
I don't see why not. Floyd jumped to super middle. Mosley jumped from lightweight to welterweight. If you're p4p then it shouldn't matter. It would be a challenge.

Agreed, it shouldn't matter. I would just be rooting for Pac, and that might to too much, besides, I still think JMM deserves the first shot at Pac, in which I will be rooting for JMM. :D
Re: Wait a minute...hmmm...Pacquiao vs Hatton @ 140...who ya got?
Pac is a great fighter, but he should be worried about fighters like JMM and maybe even Casamoyer, don't care how much you want to hype him not 140. Besides just because Floyd did it does not mean everybody will do it.
Re: Wait a minute...hmmm...Pacquiao vs Hatton @ 140...who ya got?
Hatton fans should feel awefully embarrassed that their hero, who recently captured a belt at welterweight, would be expected to be knocked unconcious by a super featherweight. I mean that's just downright embarrassing.

shite topic. hatton is to big and he is the big dog at 140, even the pac man couldnt beat him there.
Re: Wait a minute...hmmm...Pacquiao vs Hatton @ 140...who ya got?
Hatton would work him. By round 8 Manny's corner would be throwing the towel. He's too small to take rounds of body shots from Hatton. He'd walk out looking like Gatti.
Re: Wait a minute...hmmm...Pacquiao vs Hatton @ 140...who ya got?
as much as i like pac, his advantage for this fight; speed, workrate, stamina and power will be more than offset by hatton's size. i don't discount an upset but two weight class jump is too fast/risky.
imo, pac vs diaz at 135 is a good match-up.

LOL I know, never knew Pac hit harder than people like Vince Phillips, Kostya Tszyu and John Thaxton. He is one tough guy!

the third pac-em fight, pac weighed at 144.. close to 147... and everytime he hits morales who is taller and has a longer reach morales would wobble like a jelly.. come on man.. it would be a good fight but dont count pac out... hes been counted out a lot of time against much bigger names... look where he is now

I think Pac was only 140 in the ring against Solis, even though he's probably about as tall as Hatton his frame is wirey, he probably wouldn't gain any weight overnight against Hatton, which would mean he'd be perfectly hydrated and his stamina would be as good as it could be, Hatton would come in at 152-154 on the night, and he's always in terrific shape and able to go 12 (other than against Urango but apparently he was ill :-\) so I'd have to give Hatton the edge because of the vast strength advantage, when fighters make it as physical as Hatton does, when your significantly weaker strength wise it breaks you, Hatton would get more off and smother Pacquiao to a UD IMO. Would be a very intresting fight though, and maybe not as clear cut as I described.

Hatton is not only too big, he is also far too strong. He hasn't impressed americans because on his 2 showcase fights he has fought two big southpaws who were quite a lot stronger than him. Hell he rarely impressed us English fans when he fought southpaws at domestic level. However he still gets the job done and that's what is important. You will see come the Castillo fight anyway....
Hatton stops Pac by the way, who also has his hands full if he fights Valero or Guzman. I think they are more realistic targets for him.
Re: Wait a minute...hmmm...Pacquiao vs Hatton @ 140...who ya got?
Paquiao would beat hatton, simple.
two things
Pac is in good shape
Pac is a southpaw with power

Of course Pac is in good shape he is a top p4p pro boxer! But if your saying Pac hits harder than Kostya Tszyu you need to have a word with yourself!

This posting is a prime example of some of the nonsense I have read on this thread. ::**
Hatton has been comfortable at a higher weight for an eternity and would be too powerful, and dare I say it, skilled for Pac...
Pac would lose some of his speed going up and his body would not be as strong as it is against his current opponents in his lower weight class...
Hatton would bruise up his ribs and probably stop him...Of course Pac would hit Hatton but would he carry that power and speed up? No some of it would get lost on the way.
Remember where Pac started his career folks...he could never go to junior welterweight!!
