    In the center of the ring, Floyd would be dominant. Hatton fans were banking on Ricky's ability to push him to the ropes, but having watched Floyd over the years, I knew that Floyd knew how to protect himself on the ropes and throw quick counters. So even when Ricky did push Floyd's back against the ropes, he wasn't able to get many effective shots in.

    Pacquiao should also be able to outquick Hatton in the center of the ring.

    But when Ricky is able to push him to the ropes, how will Pacquiao fare? I ask because I can't think of a single instance where Pacquiao has been forced to fight with his back to the ropes.
    In all fairness to Hatton, Floyd took away anthting Ricky had by just ducking below the waist and having Cortez stop the action. Floyd took the punk biatch way out of this fight and landed one LUCKY punch (which he threw all night long) Pac will let Hatton fight more and it should be a very good match and not a borefest like Hatton/PBF. Again, I think Cortez was in PBF's money pocket and or vice versa.
    Jesus Christ...

    So Cortez hates Mexicans and British trolls huh?
    lol

    I hope Hatton can get Pacquiao on the defensive and beat him.

    I'm rootin for Hatton in this one.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    Cortez hates British and Mexicans trolls for sure...

    But what Cortez hates more is a British Mexican troll (like the one below?)...
