Do you think PAC will inflict the worst beating ever on Hatton?

Notice how short Hatton's arms are...

They are very short, but no shorter than usual.

The reach will not be a factor in this fight IMO, Hatton always looks to close the gap. And with some sensible use of the jab Hatton will be able to mix up his attacks and keep Pac guessing.

I seriously think some people are overlooking Hattons speed, strength, skills, chin and sheer tenacity.

Looking at the picture, Hatton's arms look short and his shoulder very wide... Wide target means easier to hit...

Size is just even and speed is an advantage for PAC... How can Hatton bully PAC if he don't have the size/reach/range to push him and he don't have the speed to corner PAC??

And you're right PAC will avoid, evade or counter any intention of Hatton to back him up to the ropes...

It's not quite as simple as you like to paint it. You always seem to operate in either/or terms. In fact, your intial statement confounds me a little.

If you mean by height they are even then I might be inclined to agree with you. But in terms of build, are they bollocks equal. Hatton is the stronger, bigger man. He has been at this weight for years and is a natural JWW, he has twice fought at WW. Pac has had just a few fights ouside of 130 pounds. As you admit Hatton is a margin wider, he is a bigger man. In terms of speed Pac has a handspeed advantage. But Hatton is no slouch in that department. My only concern is that Hatton should reign in those leaping hooks somewhat and use the jab more to work his way in. Pac is a little faster, but Hatton throws harder and more meaningful blows. Hatton can bully Pac because you are paying scant regard to Hattons footwork, which is exceptional. It is not easy to keep Hatton at a distance. Not even Mayweather could do it without Cortez. Hatton is on you in a flash, and once you are smothered he will bully you. Hatton is excellent at cutting off the angles and getting you where he wants and Pac will be no different here. Then that "wide" body will be pushing and those "little" arms will be working and all of a sudden it isnt so funny.

Hatton will land, and that little pixie won't be able to run forever. He will back Pac up, hurt him, and his back will touch those ropes. And eventually he will start to linger there longer than he wants. Of course, I could be totally wrong. But then again, so could you.
