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

[XaduBoxer]

.
I've read one article today stating Hatton is a hype job by promoter Frank Warren...

Hmmnnn...
.

He hasn't been managed by Warren in years though. Warren gave Hatton too much filler and that's one of the reasons Hatton left him. You cannot question Hattons heart, he left the UK and has taken the biggest fights out there culminating with Mayweather. And here he is trying again.

Now, Amir Khan is what I would call a Warren hype job.

Anyway, we will have all the answers this coming Saturday, hype job or not...

I think Pac fans have been lulled into a false sense of security. He came up several divisions in weight... beat a shot DLH (who admittedly noone knew was THAT shot)... and now has his fans thinking big. Let's say he beats Hatton (unlikely, IMO). His fans will be lulled into an even higher false sense of security.

Come to think of it, in a way it reminds me of when Tito was moving from 147 to 154 to 160. His first fight at 160, he devastatingly KTFO'ed William Joppy, a highly recognized MW champion. Tito fans (myself included) started thinking PAST Hopkins (big mistake) and toward Roy Jones as an eventual huge fight for Tito. Well... we all came crashing down when it became apparent that Tito was out of his league against the best 160-pounders.

If Pac beats Hatton, he'll go looking for other big guys, and will eventually make the mistake of fighting a Cotto, a Mosley, or worse.

You're not seiing it right. DLH just lost a SD against PBF then suddenly call him shot coz Pac dominated him in every second of the rd. Pac & PBF beat the same out of prime DLH. But Pac impresses more by the way he beat DLH.

Don't compare Tito to Pac. Pac Dominates a lot weight classes. Tito just at Welterweight & he can't even dominate it completely coz everybody knows he lost to DLH. Maybe you're just overrating hatton coz he Just beat an Old Fighter in Tzu & Shot Castillo.

Pac has 29 years old MAB, EM & JMM aside from DLH in his Victim's lists. They maybe small but these are all HOF fighters. The DLH fight confirms Pac can handle Bigger size. So I don't know how could you guys can find excuses for Hatton. Pac will dominate & Stop Hatton!!! I've been saying this for years.

It wasn't the same DLH at all though, be realistic. DLH has been getting progressively more inactive as a fighter and I think it even showed to a degree against Mayweather. A fight that was at 154, less we forget. DLH looked pretty shitty against Forbes going down in weight, and against Pac we saw an Oscar further on the slide and at a weight he had no business being at at 35. He made it far easier for Pac than PBF because of age, inactivity and bizarre weight issues. It was NOT the same Oscar.

Pac has done great at the lower weights, coming on in leaps and bounds in recent years. But Oscar and Diaz are no indication of what Pac can do against another top 10 PFP fighter in the higher weight categories. Not by a long shot.

This fight is going to surprise you. Hatton is much better than you think he is.

yea a 2 division champion, 3 time jr. welterweight champion, is a huge hype job Warren is just bitter cause the fact that his big name fighters always leave his ass lol Hatton, Calzaghe, and Haye are 3 that quickly come to mind lol John Duddy, now that's a hype job

You're not seiing it right. DLH just lost a SD against PBF then suddenly call him shot coz Pac dominated him in every second of the rd. (You can honestly and with a straight face claim that Oscar was NOT shot? You're a bigger fool than I thought). Pac & PBF beat the same out of prime DLH. But Pac impresses more by the way he beat DLH.

Don't compare Tito to Pac. Pac Dominates a lot weight classes. Tito just at Welterweight & he can't even dominate it completely coz everybody knows he lost to DLH. (Once again, your ignorance of boxing shines through. Tito was champ at 3 weight divisions. But maybe 3 is too high for you to count). Maybe you're just overrating hatton coz he Just beat an Old Fighter in Tzu & Shot Castillo.

Pac has 29 years old MAB, EM & JMM aside from DLH in his Victim's lists. They maybe small but these are all HOF fighters. The DLH fight confirms Pac can handle Bigger size.

Don't be an idiot. Nobody's comparing anyone to anyone else. I was making a point regarding going up in weight and getting a false sense of security. And for your information, ignoramus, Tito not only dominated at welterweight... he also dominated at 154 and beat a well known champion at 160. So get your head out of Pac's ass long enough to think your thoughts all the way through. BTW, asswipe... you're one of those delusional Pac fans that give otherwise neutral fans the desire for Pac to lose.
