HATTON v PACQUIAO

[ultraelectromagneticpunch]

Again... I think they are matched very well... The other has strength advantage and the other has speed... But, the advantage of both wasn't a mile distance... Both still can KO each other and both can move quick enough and possess also quick hands... It is just a matter of whos gonna execute their gameplan very well... If Pac sustains mid or long range fight, then he wins, if hatton will come inside then he wins... Hatton has a very slight advantage but still I dont put it that he will win right away... The advantage was very slight

Hatton thinks he's the stronger guy and unbeatable at 140... He will show this to PAC and will come forward most of the time to attack PAC... I think at first, PAC will sidesteps from the bulldozing Hatton and fire combos from the sides if there's an opportunity... On some occasion, I can see the patient PAC will try to meet the attacking Hatton with combos to the head and stopping Hatton on its tracks...

PAC will be PAC and if he can see an opening, he will also initiate his own attacks on Hatton either with right jabs/hooks or lead left straight... After the first 2 rounds, Hatton's face will be crimson red already from welts and cuts...

I think the fight will end inside 5 rounds..

PAC via TKO (cuts)....

I've got Pac making Hatton look daft for a few rounds and bouncing punches off his bonce. Into the second half Ricky will drag him into a scrap and land a trademark body shot that will end the fight.

[KananKrus]

If Hatton's defense is his offense... he is in a dangerous fight. If he follows Senior, and boxes his way... then, he has a good chance to land his vaunted body shots.

Will it be enough to win the fight? Can Pacquiao tame the beast at 140?

Pacquiao by TKO before the 8th.

I wouldn't put it past him to smack Pac low if a round doesn't go his way. And so he should!

I think Hatton will bleed profuriously whether he wins this fight or not.

If I were Hattons trust,I would not try to 'box' Pacquiao,I think its the wrong fight to stand at range thinking it out,Pacs straight left and hand speed would eat him up.Ithink once hes clocked and feels it,he'll revert to battling inside earnestly.Hatton is pretty suseptible to left hands,Pac will be shooting straight shots against the wide shots of Hatton.

I think he'll absorb some shots and could be dropped early.I think Hattons game should be pressure,scuffling,body shots overtime and backing Manny,Just dont think Manny does well backing.Manny is a superb fighter but hes also no Mayweather on the back foot.Im picking Hatton by late round body shot stoppage.This all seems so very familiar
