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...

that's how i see it too. hatton, a bigger and faster diaz. ricky will have his chances in the early rounds, he has to get his licks in early otherwise he'll suffer a similar beating.
