Is Hatton-Malignaggi fight already signed?

[XaduBoxer]

As I mentioned in an earlier posting,
greatness or indeed the mantle of pound for pound no.1 fighter in the world does not make size irrelevant.

When Pacquiao gets in the ring with Ricky, he will be a much smaller man.
If his skills are sufficient to compensate for the size disadvantage then he truely deserves his moniker.

But in saying that if Ricky loses then it is a great shame on him.

As I've said earlier, losing to the no. 1 P4P boxer in the world is no shame at all. It will be shameful if the one knocking you down is the ring post.

Right I'm going to simplify this as your not getting my point.

Pac = Natural superfeatherweight.
Ricky= Natural Light Welter

With Ricky's size advantage he should be more than capable of beating the best Superfeatherweight in the world.

Beacuse you are good pound for pound DOES NOT MEAN THAT SIZE DOES NOT MATTER.

Of course size (or weight) does matters, that's why boxing has weight classes. No one will support or sanctioned a fight if the other guy has tremendous size (or weight) advantage but many supported a Hatton-PAC fight so it means it is basically a fair fight and within the range of the weight class they will be fighting.

PAC already outgrown the super featherweight division and he's now considered a lightweight.
