Maywether couldn't so Pac Wont.

Really wanna see Ricky Bully him VIOLENTLY from the off after reading that

Also i think Hatton being the "underdog" in a lot of peoples eyes will make him fight like a maniac ala Kostya and i really am leaning towards the Hitman now and agree with Memphis that a trademark Body Shot will fold pac in half!

Gwan Ricky!!!
Roach was talking some shite when he mentions stopping Hatton in three. He's admitted since that it could be a long hard fight.

Im in the saem boat, I want Ricky to really put the pain on Manny and simply not give him room to breathe.

He needs to be a bit more careful than against Kostya but fight with that same intensity. Ricky needs to be relentless and wear Manny down through constantly having to think. Manny throws a lot of punches but he also likes space and room to breathe inbetween throwing punches. Hatton needs to choke out that space and keep giving Manny lots to think about.

Hoping that Hatton can cut him down late. C'mon Hatton!!!!!
Ricky will wear himself down trying be relentless and all. If he fails to hurt Pac in less than 4 rounds, then goodnight Ricky. The Hatton that we know now is not the same guy who beat Kostya Tszyu. That's the ONLY decent fighter that Ricky has beaten..Ricky beating a washed up Castillo, a feather fisted Malinaggi, his gifted decision with Collazo, didn't look impressive in beating Urango, OR Lazcano..and he got KO'ed when he took on the OTHER P4P fighter at the time, Floyd Jr. I don't think even having Floyd Sr. in his corner will be enough..Ricky's ONLY chance is to Knock Manny out..don't see that happening though. Ricky's NOT gonna out-point, or out-work Manny for 12 full rounds that's for sure. He's got a punchers chance at best, but only around 1-6 rounds. I have been watching all 3 24/7 and he said all these same things right before his fight with Floyd Jr., and he Lost. It'll be a fight worth watching though. Just hope Ricky doesn't get his ass-whooped TOO bad like Diaz and DLH did.
Hatton seems in great shape. If he's in great shape then he can fight hard for 12 rounds. No chest infections here like before Urango and Lazcano. Hatton can be as good as he was against Tszyu, and if he is able to pressure Manny for a full 36 minutes Manny will have his hands full.

Manny hasn't faced a Hatton type fighter before and certainly not at these higher weights. Manny is great offensively but lacking going back and he will be going back a lot. Now ay he just stands there with Hatton or he gets bombed out.

And Manny is NO PBF, they are worlds apart and Hatton is the man used to the higher weight here.

Hatton will rock Manny early and suddenly Manny won't be looking quite so cute. He is there and he can be caught, and he WILL be caught.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Manny stopped how Oscar was against Hopkins.
