Same here!! I feel both men is gonna get a sweet ass whooping from each other. brutal body shots from Ricky, vicious head shots from Pac. Fans can all argue and debate with facts and tapes of previous fights but IMO it will all come down to the question: who's gonna take the inflicted punishment better? This to me makes Pac a slight favorite. why? headshots. multiple headshots. Pac will throw many of them and I doubt if Ricky can prevent the damage done during flurries. On the other hand, its no secret that Ricky is a tremendous body puncher and we could all expect Freddie Roach to have a great game plan to negate this advantage. and plus the reality that it takes a lot of effort and timing to throw an effective body punch. so, I give Pac the slight edge on exchanges and the accumulation of punches due to his speed advantage.

I like your format of the post I think Pac Man hasnt recieved much of a beating throughout his career so it shouldn't be too hard for Ricky to top it. Ricky punches harder than anyone Mannys ever fought below 140 and will not be scared of pac man in the slightest.

Pac fans are in for a wake up call due May, they are all thinking it's gunna be a walk in the park for Manny but it's going to be anything but that.. I hope.

Unless he can get Pac's respect early on, Hatton will get brutalized.

You saw what Collazo and Mayweather did to him when they opened up on him. The only did it in spurts, Pac's going to go crazy on him.

So unless Hatton can make Pac think twice, he's in for a beating imo.

I hope not though.

it wont be a cakewalk for pac thats for sure, hattons body punches can hurt pac. but hatton cant throw the body punches unless he is clinching pac or atleast very close to him.

pac wont let that happen, pac will dart in and out and will not let hatton come close. hatton beaing hatton will go pushing on but a bunch of punches will greet hatton on the way in. thats why he got koed by mayweather.

pac is fast weve seen this many times already, pac putting out combos then when the opponent has the chance to throw a counter. pac is not infront of him anymore.



btw the last time ive seen pac being punched in the body pac just went berserk and kod the opponent.

He lost his compurser in the Mayweather fight that that resulted in him been ko'ed i think Hatton would of lost by UD if he hadnt of got piss**d off and lost his head look at the first 3rounds he did ok.

If Hatton lands a body shot on Manny he will feel it and who's to say he wont go down he has never been in with anyone as strong as Hatton or as bigger puncher.If Hatton can get to the body it will slow Manny down if he can take them.

Hatton will beat Pac, he will use his new found boxing skills that he forgot he had, and slowly break Manny Pac down and stop him late in the fight. Hard fight but easy victory for Hatton.

I do think Hatton would've got KO'd by Mayweather regardless because when he first came into the ring I remember thinking he looked edgy beyond belief, and I think something would've eventually made him lost his composure. It will be interesting to see if the same happens again or whether Hatton learns from the experience and is able to be a bit more relaxed.

Although I originally favoured Pacquiao & still do so, I do also have a suspicion that if the right Ricky turns up than he is more likely to put a beating on Pacquiao than vice-versa. People seem to use the argument that Pac KO'd ODLH, who Mayweather couldn't but KO'd Hatton as evidence Hatton will get battered. However, this ignores all logical rationale taking in factors like weight drain, an extra 18 months of age & the fact that Mayweather will obviously have greater p4p power against a light-welter than a natural light middleweight (although NO size differences excuses, they were basically both blown up light-welters, in PBF's case maybe even lightweight). Also many Pac-fans seem to say the fact Hatton couldn't KO Collazo & PBF shows his power is not that great. On this I disagree as no fighter has legitamately got a KD on Mayweather & both Berto & Mosley (big punchers at 147) couldn't knockdown Collazo. I think anyone who thinks that Pacquiao will have dealt with power like Hatton's before will be in for a shock come May 2. That is not to say he might not find a way to deal with it, but Hatton's power at 140 is something especially when you think guys with good chins like Tszyu & Malignaggi struggled with it, & Castillo was finished by it (even if he was close to shot by that point)
