Hatton is being underrated by a lot of people. His only close fight at 140 was against Kostya and that was nigh on 4 years ago and even he gave up in the end. Hatton has had a couple of dalliances at 147 where the extra size becomes too much, but at 140 Hatton will always be the stronger man.
As far as I'm concerned, it is Manny who will need to pull something out the bag. He is on a roll since "losing" to Marquez, in fighting a crappy 135 champ and being lucky enough to beat a punching bag in Oscar. If Pac makes it a close fight in the end I will be very impressed because it is Manny who has it all to prove. As soon as Hatton does away with Manny, people will immediately say he beat a smaller man who had no business being at JWW.![]()
