Is Hatton Pac's most powerful opponent yet?

[CGM]

Yeah Conrad, we can ignore the DLH fight, it means very little. Sooner or later PAC is going to find himself in too deep with the weight thing. When that will be I'm not sure. Hatton is probably is toughest opponent in that sense, although PAC has fought "better" guys in the p4p sense.

Oh yea back to Mab:

to be exact, his brain surgery was 6 years and 16 fights ago before the first pacquiao match. So that excuse is really not valid.

Just curious Jaz, how does a shoulder roll take the effectiveness of landing a body shot away? Your shoulder protects your chin, not your gut.

Because when PBF does it, he effectively positions his body at a 90 degree angle to his opponent, and used his elbows to protect his gut. Also Joe Cortez reffing that night meant that when he did this, if Hatton went with a body shot with his left, Cortez would pull him up for hitting Mayweather behind the back. So basically whenever Hatton went to the body he would get pulled up on it because of how Mayweather was fighting. Hatton wasn't smart enough on the night to create the angles so he could get his punches in, & Cortez didn't help on this. So yeah that's why in my opinion the shoulder roll meant Hatton could not get in any meaningful work to the body.
