Pacquiao needs to step it up

[Markusdarkus]

it's Mayweather's natural weight to fight at too 140. He is quicker slicker and hits harder and is faster

Yes but physically and stylistically 147lbs is far more suited to Mayweather than Hatton. Not taking anything away from Mayweather he did his job but again at 140lbs with a fair but firm referee it would have been a decent scrap. Would Hatton have won probably not would it have been intresting definatly and woulds Floyd have TKO`d Hatton HELL NO.

Why wouldn't Mayweather have tko'd hatton? Wouldn't hatton still be as open for that check left hook as he was at 147?

Some how i dont think Hatton would be 8pts down having completely lost it come the 10th rd.

Hatton was open for that check left hook that fight.

Watching the fight earlier you can see that Mayweather is hitting him with it whenever Hatton was rushing in like he does and Stewart even talked about it saying Mayweather was setting up Hatton with that shot the whole night.

So its not really that Hatton was down in points as he rushed in, its just how Hatton fights imo.

But this is getting off topic

This is about Pacquiao.


Now if He fights a Guzman or Casamayor next, then there will be no question. imo he should go for Casa since he is the legitimate Lightweight champ, he is a little past his best but he is the guy at lightweight besides campbell. At lightweight is where these fights will really define pacquiao's career and add to his legend.

Pacquiao has it all in front of him, if he plays his cards right he'll be on the all time p4p lists above even Marquez and Morales and I'm not afraid to say that because that's his potential.

At this point id say him and Mayweather are about even with Mayweather holding a little of an edge over it. But like I said at lightweight fights can be made that can really make Pacquiao's career.

If Pacquaio beats Campbell or Casa then beats Hatton he will have out achieved anyone in the last 15yrs.

He'll be the number one p4p without question. I really don't know if he needs Hatton to do that, it all depends who is the champ at the time it happens but if Pacquiao can handle 140 well then I'd love to see him fight Hatton but I'd like to see him more at 135 first. And yeah fights against Guzman and Casa would make his career.

But even if he lost no one could take away from what he's already done and 2nd p4p is the lowest he can possibly go unless Pavlik ko'd calzaghe or something.
