To all Pac fans.

[XaduBoxer]

You're very much welcome mate...

Here's your new avatar mate...

Cheers...surprisingly I haven't heard you talk much about the fight. Are you as shocked as me and Miles ? I'd love your view on it, just don't rub it in

Sorry for the delayed reply mate but here's my view of the fight...

Yes I was surprised like everybody else regarding the early KO... I'm predicting a TKO/KO inside 5 rounds...

I think Hatton has the wrong frame of mind from the start, since the time this fight was still in negotiation... Hatton thinks he's the favorite coz he's the man at 140, the bigger and stronger boxer... He thinks he's more popular coz he has 35,000 fans flying over the Atlantic just to see him fight... This was manifested when he won't budge from a 50-50 purse split offer...

Reality sets in to Hatton but it's too late when it's only days into the fight... Hatton was bitter when most boxing experts, writers, and opinion polls pointed to a PAC victory and writing off his chances of winning the fight... Hatton was bitter seeing the odds opening more almost installing PAC as a 3 to 1 favorite 1 day into the fight...

Having "Pride in Battle" tattoed on his back for this fight, Hatton approached the fight riding on that pride... He wanted to show who's the man, who's the bigger and stronger man... That's where he got it all wrong because PAC is truly the better boxer overall and that leads to his early downfall...

I think if Hatton already considered PAC a very dangerous opponent from the start, he could have prepared for it properly and approached the fight with more caution and more defense... But what we always hear from Hatton were;

"I'm the bigger and stronger guy..."

"This is my house, I'm unbeatable at 140..."

"People were reading too much on Manny's last fight..."

"I will be the best pound-for-pound boxer after I defeat Manny..."

I wasnt shocked as i predicted a pacman blowout.
The simple fact is , i dont get caught up in the patriotic bullshit like so many boxing fans. This doesnt blinker your view , was as simple as this ---- a very good fighter indeed in Hatton vs A GREAT fighter in PACMAN.

No shocks here at all , Hatton has thrilled us many times and i wish him the best for the future.

Props to you... I guess it's only you and Coach Roach who wasn't surprised with the 2nd round KO... Even Pacquiao himself said, he was surprised too...

If you would read some of my previous posts on the fight , i actually said PAC TKO 1 , so a second round wins is hardly surprising .

Yeah it wasn't surprising to a few people specially to Coach Roach who once said that Hatton doesn't belong in the same ring with PAC and predicted a 3rd round KO...

Like I've said, majority were surprised of the very early ending... Even Pacquiao himself was surprised... I think 80% of the experts, writers and fans picked PAC to win but not via KO in the 2nd round...

I've heard one guy who placed a $10 bet on a 2nd round KO and wins $250... Lucky guy...

A $10 bet on 1st round KO wins $300 ...

Well it seems NOBODY lost that much and didn't bet on a do or die bet. Phew i thought other people were also a victim of the consequence of the fight. A fan died of a heart-attack here in the Phil and there were other 3 who got electrocuted cause they needed to adjust the antenna.

roach didn't actually predict a 3rd round stoppage, he said he'd be disappointed if it goes past 3 rounds.

hatton also said he would shock the world. so, those are 2 predictions that are spot on.
