Hatton without a doubt hits harder than any opponent pac has ever fought (With the exception of Oscar maybe.. but he barely threw 10 punches a round).
Hatton is also VERY good at closing down the distance, which in theory will neutralise any speed advantage pac man has and then you know Hatton will be smashing his ribs to pieces. The only way I can see pac keeping this from happening is if he jabs superbly which may not be so easy as it was for Mayweather, as Mayweather Snr seems to be focusing on Ricky's head movement a hell of a lot, and even if he does catch Ricky with these jabs as he comes in Ricky will probably walk through them. I don't at all think pac is a one-hit banger, I just think he hits hard and often however against Hatton he wont get the opportunity to hit often. Maybe I'm starting to sound like a Hatton fan boy now but I'm merely stating my opinion, i'm not declaring them fact....
Yeah atlast we get some facts instead of opinions
Im not a Hatton fan . I like the bloke and wish him well cuz he is a Brit but I wouldnt call myself a fan as he isnt my type of fighter
Saying that I give him the edge in this fight. Styles make fights and im not convinced Pac can keep Ricky off him. An old Barrera and Marquez seemed to have figured out how to neutralise Pac and Ricky although he doesnt share their class makes up for it in size and strength .
I can see Pac having sucess with a few flurries early whilst Hatton establishes his range but as soon as he is in full swing and has his rythm then its gonna be a painful night for the Flip. He was close to quitting vs Marquez after taking afew body shots . Even Roach admitted it . Ricky wont stand off him though like the cautious Mexican. Ricky will maul him and stop him . Cant wait !
