Ok; I can concede that. So he gets pummeled in 5 instead![]()
I hated to see that against Pac. I wanted Rick to win but man he underestimated that kid, and when he realized he was in deep he didn't know what to do; too confused to start pulling off all those new tricks Sr. had him practicing, so went back to doing what he knew best and got blasted. Shame really; he could have put on a better performance had he at least held his hands up and moved his head![]()
I think Hatton KOs him.. being that Pacman was a whisping 118lbs or so back then!
No really. I think Pac today decisions Hatton of 'yor. His guard was still low, his physique a little better, punches a little crisper, and he was hell of tough. Pac would just have a harder time finishing him off.

And, yes. The ref would have a lot to do with it, SweetPea! haha. I mean it was bad officiating, but really, you didn't hear any complaints from Tszyu after the fight.. I think they both got away with a lot, Hatton a touch more.

Yes. They're just much different fighters, KT's biggest issue with Hatton was not being "past his prime" but that he had slow feet and needed range to punch.
Yes, it might take him a bit longer, maybe even go to the cards, but Manny would dominate him. He's a great fighter. Hatton, even at that point, was just a good fighter.
Without question...The version of Pacquiao today beats any version of Hatton
