hahahahah
Baffles me that Roach claims he'll be "disapointed" if Pac doesn't beat Ricky in 3 rounds. How fucking dare he say that!!!
Maywether couldn't so Pac Wont.
Really wanna see Ricky Bully him VIOLENTLY from the off after reading that
Also i think Hatton being the "underdog" in a lot of peoples eyes will make him fight like a maniac ala Kostya and i really am leaning towards the Hitman now and agree with Memphis that a trademark Body Shot will fold pac in half!
Gwan Ricky!!!

pbf couldnt cause he didnt even tried! he was content on picking shots he just got lucky and caught hatton moving in when he got kod
pac cant stop hatton under 3 rds hatton will probably throw a lunging jab so he can get near pac then tie him up immediately from there he can punch while in clinch. i think thats what hatton is going to do.
pac if he can avoid being hugged by hatton will be the usual pac, throw tons of punches. or if he can avoid hattons clinch he can try the left hook or jab like what he did with odlh.
im rooting for pac ofcourse we pinoy stick with each other and its not a race thing. i think this fight will be stopped because of a cut, dont know if itll come from an accidental headbutt or a legit punch.
There is no poissibilities for Hatton here. He is too slow and not having power for one single punch KOs!
Them who are trusting in Hatton I suggest to bet for him at PAF.com there is a beg odd for him, 3,00!!!
But anything will not change the fact: Pacquiao wins!
Didnt Pac v Marquez 2 have a few head clashes in it?
Pacquiao does charge in blindly and always quite awkwardly because of his stance.
Ricky will have trouble with the speed and the stance but should be alot stronger, I dont reckon Pacquiao will be as willing to do the usual charging in here, eitehr Rickys power will keep him moving or he feels Rickys strength in the clinch.
I9 reckon it will be quite a good spectacle, Manny isnt the greatest boxer, he is very fast and quite powerfull but hes not a great boxer, as long as Ricky keeps his hands up and throws more than 1 at a time he should win.
It piissed me off in the Mayweather fight when Ricky would bully Floyd to the ropes and not let his hands go, he could have thrown and hit anything just let them go and work, he made Floyd feel comfortable because there was a pattern of going to the ropes and not much happening in fact I think Floyd makes a mistake by fighting Marquez as any "warm up" after a long lay off
Hopefully Mayweather senior will get Ricky to loosen up and let some nice left hook combinations go, as much as the De La Hoya fight flattered to decieve for Pacquiao I think Hatton will win and look a lot better purly because Manny hasnt fought anyone as strong and deceptively good as Ricky.
Roach was talking some shite when he mentions stopping Hatton in three. He's admitted since that it could be a long hard fight.
Im in the saem boat, I want Ricky to really put the pain on Manny and simply not give him room to breathe.
He needs to be a bit more careful than against Kostya but fight with that same intensity. Ricky needs to be relentless and wear Manny down through constantly having to think. Manny throws a lot of punches but he also likes space and room to breathe inbetween throwing punches. Hatton needs to choke out that space and keep giving Manny lots to think about.
Hoping that Hatton can cut him down late. C'mon Hatton!!!!!
Ricky will wear himself down trying be relentless and all. If he fails to hurt Pac in less than 4 rounds, then goodnight Ricky. The Hatton that we know now is not the same guy who beat Kostya Tszyu. That's the ONLY decent fighter that Ricky has beaten..Ricky beating a washed up Castillo, a feather fisted Malinaggi, his gifted decision with Collazo, didn't look impressive in beating Urango, OR Lazcano..and he got KO'ed when he took on the OTHER P4P fighter at the time, Floyd Jr. I don't think even having Floyd Sr. in his corner will be enough..Ricky's ONLY chance is to Knock Manny out..don't see that happening though. Ricky's NOT gonna out-point, or out-work Manny for 12 full rounds that's for sure. He's got a punchers chance at best, but only around 1-6 rounds. I have been watching all 3 24/7 and he said all these same things right before his fight with Floyd Jr., and he Lost. It'll be a fight worth watching though. Just hope Ricky doesn't get his ass-whooped TOO bad like Diaz and DLH did.
Hatton seems in great shape. If he's in great shape then he can fight hard for 12 rounds. No chest infections here like before Urango and Lazcano. Hatton can be as good as he was against Tszyu, and if he is able to pressure Manny for a full 36 minutes Manny will have his hands full.
Manny hasn't faced a Hatton type fighter before and certainly not at these higher weights. Manny is great offensively but lacking going back and he will be going back a lot. Now ay he just stands there with Hatton or he gets bombed out.
And Manny is NO PBF, they are worlds apart and Hatton is the man used to the higher weight here.
Hatton will rock Manny early and suddenly Manny won't be looking quite so cute. He is there and he can be caught, and he WILL be caught.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Manny stopped how Oscar was against Hopkins.
i had a feeling this would happen...the las vegas odd's are now manny -230 and ricky +120 money is starting to come in on hatton..... man i loved hatton when the pacman was at -270 ... now it's down to -230...o-well when my wife & i get to vegas tomorrow.... i don't care what the odd's are... i am going with the hitman...
scott out !! from california
