    He was the smaller guy mate!
    Im sure I heard that he came into the ring less than Manny if the commentators are to be belived.

    I agree in he didnt give it his all.

    I said on another thread check his knees out and you can see fear and uncertainty in his movment from quite early on.

    As soon as he tasted the type of power he didnt expect he changed his mind I think and went back to basics to see if he could work something out ,but basics don't work as a spring board with someone like Manny moving every way imaginable in front of you.
    His footwork and balance looked terrible from the outgo, manny was able to turn and hit him while he fumbled around a 90 degree turn. He's never had the quickest footwork, but that almost looked like new guys learing footwork in there. Maybe it was just a terrible matchup for him. Either way we will never know, but it was rather dissapointing.

    Haven't watched the fight so can't comment.

    but to be honest i aint supprised

    ODLH = Promoter
    Pac = has the biggest fan base in the sport
    Hatton = has the second biggest fan base in the sport

    so a hatton match up with pac is far more sellable now after last nights win and a massive moneymaker

    don't you just love this sport

    but then hey i always thought DLH held back against Mayweather to sell a rematch.

    That's kind of a contradiction, if Hatton and Pac have the combined biggest fan base in the sport then that fight doesn't need any selling.

    All Pac had to do was prove his credentials fighting a credible interim opponent at 140 and that fight would have been just as sellable.

    ODLH then wouldn't have had to humiliate himself in the process
