Diaz has always been known as a slow starter so Pac needs to jump on him right away and not let the fight hit the later rounds.
Him wanting to fight Hatton is blowing my mind! Maybe after seeing Hatton's last fight, Pacquiao thinks he can knock him out seeing how Ricky gets hit with a lot of left hands.
Like I always say, I'm already skeptical about him fighting at 135 but that weight is looking like it will be STACKED soon enough. It already has Casamayor, Diaz (David, Juan, and Julio), Campbell, Katsidis, and Santa Cruz, with Marquez, Guzman, and Valero all willing to follow Pacquiao to 135 as well. THOSE ARE A LOT OF NAMES!!! Pacquiao needs to leave Hatton alone, and conquer 135. If he's looking for a payday, then Hatton is the man, but the risk at fighting someone who is proven to be at his best weight let alone having it be Pacs first fight at 140 would be catastrophic!
Yep, the Hatton fight is a very high risk with an equally very high reward (both money and legacy) for PAC... PAC already called out Hatton... The only thing he need is to stop David Diaz or win it impressively and
the Hatton fight will be around the corner...
.
Assuming Hatton doesn't get beat by Malignaggi.
If Fatton gets beat by Paulie, PAC-Hatton will become a lesser fight legacy-wise for PAC... PAC will be aiming for a belt in 5 weight divisions... (assuming PAC gets Diaz' belt first as his 4th ;) ).

My major take on this thing is,..
If you'd take a look at
David Diaz early career record, I can safely say that he is a NATURAL jr welter. If Pac KO's Diaz, then I would difinitely give Pac the puncher's chance against Hatton.
I can't wait to find it out on June 28. :)
I never realized Diaz had been
TKO'd by Kendall Holt of all people. Maybe Pac has a chance to stop him after all.
Nearly knocked out afew times aswel . He is really awful but this fight is set up so Pac looks good and they can say he moved up in weight and beat the WBC champ in style . Overlooking the fact that Diaz is the worst guy ever to hold a WBC strap and he never won it in the 1st place
A quick win over Diaz will give Pac that false hope he needs to go for a Hatton fight . Since Hatton got badly knocked out by Floyd then looked vunerable against a washed up Lazcano , Pac has shown an increasing interest but even though Rickys in decline he is still far too good for the Filipino .

I don't think he's too good, skill-wise Pac is better than Hatton. Hatton is probably too big though, and that kind of size advantage plays right into his game.

I think Ricky is too big. Not far too good
Re: pacman wants hatton next
PAC-Hatton fight might be held in England...
"Should he beat Diaz, Pacquiao has been linked to another move up to face highly regarded Englishman Ricky Hatton at 140 pounds. Pacquiao stopped short of confirming those plans but showed willingness to compete before a large crowd anticipated in Hatton's homeland.
“If that fight will be,” Pacquiao said, “it will be in England.”

pac thrives on being the underdog and he hasn't been one for the longest time. this fight would get his fire back.

being underdog... fighting in his opponent's backyard infront of thousands of his opponent's fans... that's what PAC likes ...

It's hard for him to shock the world with that kind of intensity though.
Re: pacman wants hatton next
I want to see how Manny does at lightweight before I go predicting who would win.
