I think it's totally wrong and narrowminded not just in this contest which most people see going either way, but in any boxing match to totally rule out an opponent. Everyone has their day, and I'm not saying it will take a miracle for Hatton to beat Pacquiao cos' it won't.

Pacquiao is the clear fave at this stage, but I think maybe it's a bit too much hype. Not taking anything away from Manny, he's an incredible boxer but Hatton is not an easy win for anyone.

I'm sure plenty more criticisms would be made of Ricky's style than of Manny's though, lot's of people consider him a wrestler/brawler etc., who likes to get hit in the face as long as he can get on the inside.

But the fact that these 2 guys possess such different styles is what makes this such a mouth watering prospect, both known for gettin' us our money's worth.
