Forum-wise, I think there are an equal amount of Hatton-groupies and Pacfans.

Come fight night, I've always said this, the arena will be absolutely bonkers. Pac and Hatton have the most vocal followings in the boxing world. Imagine listening to "There's only one Ricky Hatton" with a "Manny, Manny, Manny" chant combating it. That's what I expect to hear.

There are a lot of Filipinos in the US. Especially in Cali, New York, and New Jersey. In the US, Filipinos usually work in the health field, the majority of them nurses so a lot of them are financially stable. The Philippines itself is still considered a poor country, but Filipino's in the US are on a different boat which is who comprises most of Pacquiao's audience during his fights.

BTW! I've wanted to go see him fight live the past couple of fights (Marquez, Diaz, De La Hoya, Hatton) but my pops doesn't have much time left so I'd rather watch him fight on TV with my dad rather than see him live without him.
