His main concentration will be the fight and his dominating this division, not sure the same can be said of Pac.
Thoughts ?
I think both of them has equal pressure. Both of them have huge fan base andthere's lots national pride going around along with the pre-fight. Manny is the current #1 p4p fighter on the planet and that itself will give him pressure, but he's invading hostile territory which is 140... Hatton's strong hold. Hatton is the belt holder and the smaller man trying to take it away from him. So that also build pressure on Hatton.

I'd say there both equally carrying the same kind of pressure.
