This is getting worst for Hatton...
Teddy Atlas picked Hatton to beat PAC
SPEEDBAG Atlas picked Hatton to beat Pacman on May 2. “It will not be a blowout like the De La Hoya fight,” he said. “It was almost a dead man walking.” Atlas said Manny is now an icon, and he may have reached his pinnacle, while Hatton has his pride to nurture after losing to Money Mayweather. Dan Rafael held off making a pick until he gets to Vegas. Woods ain’t shy. Manny’s hand speed, footwork, southpaw stance and accuracy bring him to a UD on May 2.
More bad news for Team Hatton:
Pacquiao’s main sparring partner Urbano Antillon is a good technical fighter who punished the “Pacman" to the body frequently during sparring days, a technique Hatton has been known for following his “single shot to the body" wins over Luis Collazo and Jose Luis Castillo.
Ariza doesn’t see Pacquiao suffering the same fate against the “Hitman" from Manchester, England.
“Urbano is such a technician to the body," said Ariza. “If you can handle Urbano for five rounds going to your body, then not even flinch, then Hatton can’t bring anything Manny hasn’t seen in this camp."
“Watching him these last few weeks with his sparring partners, he’s literally hurting them every time he gets them."
