It Looks Like it's Ricky Hatton first, then Floyd Jr. next! - Freddie Roach

Both men are about the same size...Pac is faster. Pac has excellent power. Ricky has struggled with southpaws. I gotta favor Pac in this one, if only by a little. It's gotta be a great one!

It is a battle between true ring warriors. The best man will win... truly deserving of accolades of giant proportions. Congratulations to whoever wins in advance, and by no means an inebriated induced, juvenile, and back-handed compliments, will be acceptable!

Pac by stoppage, Ricky runs in to much and gets caught to much by Pac's straight left. Pac 6 Rd Tko

I'd go along with CountryBoy on the Pacquiao by stoppage, but a tad bit later in the fight, the 9th round onwards.

I see PacMan having trouble for the first few, and with a conservative game plan and respect to the opponent, the going gets stalled slightly early on.

Once adjusted, the speed, footwork and workrate, will slowly creep heavily into the Hitman's physical conditioning. It will lead to difficulties.

Can you imagine lightweights, like David Diaz, bewildered at the speed at which Pac operates at. How much so with heavier weights?

Late TKO - Pacquiao.

Pac will beat Hatton, and he definitely isn't just going to "come at him", he's a lot slicker than some give him credit for.

What ?? Is everyone taking crazy pills??

50/50??


My god this fight wont even be close. Pac will annihilate Ricky inside 8 rounds. Over. Kaput. KO.



I understand Ricky has no chance to get a rematch with Floyd without beating Pac. So he HAS to take this fight. But Im floored so many of you are picking Hatton. I love Ricky too but this is waaaay too much fighter for him.



Manny Pac by wickedly violent KO somewhere around round 7.

WOW! Its amazing how man people on this forum are out of their frickin minds! Could someone please explain to me why everyone thinks that Hatton is an unstopable monster? Some of yall's posts are a joke! Pacquiao has fought and beaten much better talent than Hatton ever dreamed about. Hatton has beat Tzyu, Castillo, and malinaggi. All three of those guys are good fighters but none of them are great fighters! Oh and Hatton suffers knockout loss to Floyd Mayweather. Floyd is one of the top two in the world but he's not a knockout artist. He didn't knock Judah out, Judah has a horable chin! That goes to show you that Ricky Hatton doesnt have the best chin in the world. Thats one flaw. Manny Pacquiao has beat Barrera twice, Morrales twice, Oscar, And JMM what should have been twice. That is a much more impressive resume than Hattons. Second is that Manny's speed is going to eat Ricky Hatton alive. Thats a fact! You cant teach speed and Rickys not going to adabt to it. Ricky's gonna come in like he does everyone else, and he's gonna run into that same straight left hand thats gonna rock his world. This fight will probly be stopped around the 10th round with Hatton looking like his face just went into a meat grinder! If Hatton does bring more than what I expect him to, then so what? Its not like Pacquiao hasnt beeen threw some wars! Pacquiao's heart will take the legs of ricky Hatton no doubt about! Mark my words Ricky Hatton will be running into that Straight left hand all night and Pacquiao's gonna shut all the Hatton groupies up! Case closed!

PacMan will put some more pain on Hatton. Ko in the later rounds. Hatton is good but not good enough at this level.
