Re: Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Hatton?
Time for a bit of peacemaking......
Forget about Roach's predictions and Mayweather Snr's mouth, listen to 2 genuinely nice guys talk about the fight, could learn a thing or two chaps ;)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcA7xJG1rLU

As what I've said, it remains to be seen...
PAC fans tho already rehearsing their racket...

Re: Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Hatton?
Statement: Hatton is obviously irked that people keep asking him whether he can handle Pacquiao’s power after the manner in which the Filipino took apart David Diaz in June and De La Hoya. Pacquiao, he said, should be wary of his power because he’s the natural 140 pounder while Pacquiao started as a flyweight. He was asked whether he believes Pacquiao has lightweight (135 pounds) power. “I don’t want to say too much because I don’t want it to come back and bite me in the ass but, I mean, I would say so.”
Where he went wrong: De La Hoya said flat out that Pacquaio didn’t have much power at 147 pounds; if he had, De La Hoya feels he would’ve been knocked out cold. However, Pacquiao did hurt De La Hoya enough that the Golden Boy had to hold the top rope to remain upright in the seventh round. And, at 135 pounds, Pacquiao pounded Diaz – who is very durable, if little else – into submission. That’s only one weight class below 140. Pacquiao probably doesn’t have one-punch knockout power at junior welterweight, particularly against a sturdy opponent like Hatton. The Filipino does have the power to hurt Hatton if he puts his punches together, though. Don’t be surprised if Hatton ends up flat on his back with the referee waving his arms overhead.
Statement: Ricky Hatton was asked repeatedly how he could expect to cope with Pacquiao’s now-legendary speed and each time he had the same answer: “They said the same thing about Paulie Malignaggi, how he was too quick for me and how he was going to outbox me. And look what happened in that fight.”
Where he went wrong: Many experts did favor Malignaggi in their November fight, in which Hatton won by 11th-round TKO. Hatton’s mistake is equating Malignaggi in any way to Pacquiao. Malignaggi is a fairly quick-handed, capable fighter. However, one thing opponents often say after fighting Pacquiao for the first time is they underestimated his amazing hand speed, not to mention his foot speed. And Pacquaio’s not just a capable fighter; he’s a great fighter, perhaps one of the best ever. Like so many before him, Hatton might be very surprised on May 2.
;D

The difference between both sets of fans (in my opinion) is that Hatton's fans are genuine boxing fans and are DEDICATED to following the hitman where as alot of the pac fans (seemingly 95% of the Fillipines...) come across as casual fans who are more interested in the man himself than the sport he's competing in.. riding the bandwagon I guess you could call it.
It's gonna be crazy. I would say crowd will be split 50/50. But Hatton fans will be louder because they're more organized. :)
Re: Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Hatton?
Why Ricky is so pale?? Is he scared, frightened to realized that he does not really possess an advantage over PAC in terms of size?? ... ;)

From the picture above, I say they're of more or less the same size... But if you want some real facts, below is the tale of the tape then tell me who's the bigger man...;)

Re: Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Hatton?
You blind? Pac may have the longer reach but..Did you see the what those stats indicate at the bottom? 152 to 145. Now come May 2 and Pac weighs a couple of pounds near Hatton's weight I will believe you. and look at it again, Ricky is fighting at 140. the fact that Pac can make 129..that alone should convince you that he is the smaller man.

PAC make 129 because he's fighting a 130 division fight... PAC make 142 on his 147 division fight... On this 140 division fight, I'm guessing PAC will be 149 lbs. on fight night while Hatton will be 150/151 lbs. on fight night...

.
What a great analogy. at 142 he added 5 pounds. then at 140 and he adds 9 pounds? and Pac makes 129 cuz he fought at 130. Makes sense..So that makes him as big as Ricky right? He had the pleasure to weigh a pound less than the limit, 2 notches below his current division where you said he's almost of the same size as a big 140 pounder. Great. Tell me the wonderful formula you used, I wanna learn how you came up with these things.

Well that was PAC 1st fight at 147 and he jumped 2 divisions (from 135) to do that... PAC didn't fully developed his muscle mass yet for higher division fights...
For this fight, PAC is going down to 140 from 147 and been in higher division (140 and up) for almost a year now...

OK then... Goodbye...
PAC's recent fight night weights were in 148/149 lbs. range while that of Hatton at 150 to 152 lbs... Not much difference...
