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

[XaduBoxer]

Pac has the numbers but the question is - do pac fans know how to make a good racket like hatton fans can? My point is if the pac fans outnumbered the Hatton fans 2 to 1 but the Hatton fans made much more noise for the entire fight then which set of fans is better?

As what I've said, it remains to be seen...

PAC fans tho already rehearsing their racket...

Statement: Hatton is obviously irked that people keep asking him whether he can handle Pacquiao’s power after the manner in which the Filipino took apart David Diaz in June and De La Hoya. Pacquiao, he said, should be wary of his power because he’s the natural 140 pounder while Pacquiao started as a flyweight. He was asked whether he believes Pacquiao has lightweight (135 pounds) power. “I don’t want to say too much because I don’t want it to come back and bite me in the ass but, I mean, I would say so.”

Where he went wrong: De La Hoya said flat out that Pacquaio didn’t have much power at 147 pounds; if he had, De La Hoya feels he would’ve been knocked out cold. However, Pacquiao did hurt De La Hoya enough that the Golden Boy had to hold the top rope to remain upright in the seventh round. And, at 135 pounds, Pacquiao pounded Diaz – who is very durable, if little else – into submission. That’s only one weight class below 140. Pacquiao probably doesn’t have one-punch knockout power at junior welterweight, particularly against a sturdy opponent like Hatton. The Filipino does have the power to hurt Hatton if he puts his punches together, though. Don’t be surprised if Hatton ends up flat on his back with the referee waving his arms overhead.


Statement: Ricky Hatton was asked repeatedly how he could expect to cope with Pacquiao’s now-legendary speed and each time he had the same answer: “They said the same thing about Paulie Malignaggi, how he was too quick for me and how he was going to outbox me. And look what happened in that fight.”

Where he went wrong: Many experts did favor Malignaggi in their November fight, in which Hatton won by 11th-round TKO. Hatton’s mistake is equating Malignaggi in any way to Pacquiao. Malignaggi is a fairly quick-handed, capable fighter. However, one thing opponents often say after fighting Pacquiao for the first time is they underestimated his amazing hand speed, not to mention his foot speed. And Pacquaio’s not just a capable fighter; he’s a great fighter, perhaps one of the best ever. Like so many before him, Hatton might be very surprised on May 2.
