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

[Gandalf]

Marquez has a totally different style to Hatton, so I can't see Hatton becoming that kind of back foot, counter puncher. I don't expect anything "new" from Hatton as such, but I am expecting the basics to have been cranked back up. He will pressure Manny hard, but have all the fundamentals working. Jab, movement, combinations. Hatton isn't going to win by outboxing Pac, he will win by making things too hot to handle and by putting the hurt on. Manny is quick but he is VERY hittable, when hurt Manny might try to fight fire with fire, but Hatton will have imposed his will if that happens, and Manny will get beaten up. You can't run from Hatton unless you are Mayweather, and you can't stay close because Hatton will rough you up. Manny cannot pretend that Hatton is Diaz or Oscar. Hatton is no slouch, he will catch Manny a lot and hit him like never before.

Pac is going to get the beating of his life IMO, not the other way round.

Hatton can't win by outboxing PAC, we all agree on this one...

As of late, PAC came out from fights totally unmarked unlike Hatton where Lazcano and Paulie were able to mark his face... JMM, Barrera and Morales did land some good ones on PAC but it didn't really resulted to major trouble and PAC was able to retaliate throwing his one bombs...

PAC loves fighting toe-to-toe, he has the advantage in this situation since he possess the quicker hands...

Hatton is just like a little faster and little bigger David Diaz... and Hatton will receive a similar beating that David received from PAC...

I don't think he is at all.

Hatton is significantly better than Diaz in all areas. Diaz is totally one dimensional and can only fight one way, and even that is extremely limited. To describe Hatton in that way makes me think you are misreading this fight big time. And once again disregarding the qualities that Hatton has. The fight will not be like Diaz: Pac, you are going to be sorely dissapointed if that's what you think you are getting.

And I would be very happy if Roach and co. are simply preparing themselves for a bigger version of Diaz because it is most definitely NOT what they are going to be facing come May 2nd.

Rumour coming for Pac's camp is that he can't move around the ring due the enormous amount of swelling around his Gonads from the excesive amount of nuthugging he has recieved

On a serious note, can anyone tell me what time the fight is shedule for UK time, I need to work out where and when I can go an see it.Given that Australia is so far ahead does that mean the fight will be over before it's started

Ok it should be on sometime between 1 & 3 in the afternoon your time on May 3. Not sure exactly what time they will come out for their fight, but it will definitely be around that time I think.

"Arum believes his man is better in all departments than he was six months ago when he beat De La Hoya.

"He is faster, he’s smarter and he has all of the attributes,” Arum said.

“What’s Manny’s strength? Its his speed. So if he fights the fight capitalizing on his strength which is his speed there is no way Hatton can beat him."

Arum claims that Top Rank matchmaker Bruce Trampler told him that he is handling sparring partners Urbano Antillon, Mike Alvarado and Raymund Serrano (no mention of Amir Khan) "like babies."

Arum went on: “You now can't see his hands, he is so fast.
"He throws them so quickly you can’t see the punches"

It would be a sad situation if Pac wasn't able to handle himself against these monsters.

Pac's camp is talk, talk, talk. Arum is a promoter, anything he says should be taken with a pinch of salt too.

Hattons camp, quiet and determined. That's how a camp should be.
