There have been numerous threads about how Pac is going to destroy Hatton and give him his worst beating ever. I don't see how that is going to happen at all. I can't even see Pacquiao winning the fight. Hatton at 140 is a fucking monster. Pacquiao has the definite edge on handspeed but that's it IMO. What is heavily underrated about Hatton is his insane footspeed and footwork. His technique and quickness is how he's able to always be on you and mugging the shit out of you. Manny WILL NOT be able to sidestep Hatton like he did ODLH, he WILL NOT. Hatton is just as fast as Manny on his feet. The only reason that Hatton even lost to Floyd was because Floyd was able to frustrate Hatton with defense and Floyd used his "size" to bully Hatton when he got tired. Then Floyd just timed Hatton and caught him. Manny will not be able to do anything like that. Hatton won't try to box with him, Hatton will mug him, and I don't think Manny's ever seen that type of pressure. I just don't see how Manny will keep Hatton off of him and I see Hatton punishing Manny on the ropes. Quite honestly, I like Manny, but if Hatton trains properly and looks he has in the past, I really think Manny will get stopped. Can someone please tell me why they think Manny is such a favorite in this fight? Outside of saying something like "because he's P4P #1". Tell me how you envision Manny winning the fight.

    Where the hell have you ever seen Hatton's insane footspeed and foot work??

    Do you have some hidden footage of Hatton in back alley brawls or something? I have seen every fight of Hattons since he fought Pendelton....Insane footspeed and footwork are not words to describe hatton....

    If Pacquiao keeps turning Hatton dis-advantage for Ricky...

    Come in throw flurry step out...move to the side...get behind Hatton the second he turns flurry and move.....Simple enough..

    Hatton has fast hands but he is no foot genius..average is all....If he had such great foot work and foot speed he would have done much better at WW and not looked like the struggling litte kid he did...

    Hatton has a good chin, great work rate and great stamina..those are his bread and butter attributes nothing more nothing less...He is not an overly hard puncher.....he beats guys with volume...

    This is not to say that Hatton will or will not win the fight because truth is with Hatton being the body puncher he is and histry proving that is where to beat Pacquiao it just may be the perfect recipe for victory....we will not know until fight night

    But to say there is NO way for Pacquiao to beat Hatton and give Hatton skills he does not posess is just as bad as those you criticize for stating Pacquiao will win because he is a betting favorite if not worse
