Pac is not getting past Hatton, guaranteed.

i defo wouldnt put money on either man winning a real 50/50 fight for me

[leftylee]

Pac is getting smashed by Hatton. His groupies can forget a Mayweather match.

[Mark TKO]

this is what I expected

Pac's style is perfect for Hatton in a surefire mouth=watering classic that Hatton will win around 9-11. Body shot

Unfortunately I see the same outcome for Hatton v PBF as last time.


Pac would have a better chance against Floyd though IMO and I could see him outpointing him.


Bring it on - Wembley please

Pac may loose to Hatton,but I seriously doubt that Hatton will "smash" Pac...Like Drago said its probably 50/50...

I don't doubt it

It sounded presumptuous of Freddie at first glance, but then reading through, you'd realize it was prefaced with; In a perfect world...

So nothing there to paint Roach a dickhead or anything.

[KananKrus]

It is also interesting what he mentioned about the future plans of his MMA fighter, Arlovski. Possibly a shift to boxing? Roach wants him to fight Valuev, if he hurdles his next MMA bout. That is quite interesting...

It's boxing, there are no guarantees. Unlike death and taxes, which definitely is... guaranteed.

What are your reasons for saying that?

Style wise Pac will come at Hatton, he is not a slick southpaw and will fight with Hatton. Hatton will love that and it will be as good as a performance as his victory over Tszyu because he will be extra motivated. At 140lb no body beats him. Only Maweather stands a 50% chance with him at 140lbs.

Hatton is being overrated here I expect him to lose.

I think Pac might be a little too fast on his toes for Hatton to nail enough to do damage. I can see Manny being the one counterpunching and Hatton going forward

I have it about 60-40 for Pac.

[ross]

Hmm, I used to dislike Hatton but he has done the biz against some very strong light welter fighters, Pac isnt genuinly that big or strong and De La Hoya trying to show off how much weight he could lose gave Pac a standing target with no energy for offence.

When you see beyond the De La Hoya match then I do think that Ricky SHOULD be too strong for Pac and Ricky isnt exactly slow either and Pac isnt too hard to nail.

Its a very intruiging match who if I had to bet my house id go with Hatton but I wouldnt be too sure either way as Pacs southpaw quick hands may bust Rickys face up, I dont know.
