Manny Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton

[Shane]

The boy got done good and proper. Now, lets see Pac Man try and handle Pretty Boy the same way.

He will dominate him too. Knockout? Maybe not. But he will beat him handily.

wow. lol

Prior to this fight - the bolded comments were true.

Manny really is amazing... Can't wait to see him beat the crap out of Pretty Boy!!

As amazing as Manny is, I am even more impressed by his trainer Freddie Roach.

Roach is indeed quite a story... He and Manny are a perfect team.

so now that the fight is over, glad i didnt pay. great win for the pacman, really thought hatton was seriously hurt. just a devasting win for manny all around. glad to see some quality matchups this year in boxing. cant wait for marquez vs mayweather. any thoughts, predictions?

 

[RASTA14]

you guys are right about roach, good to see the accolades come his way after all hes been through.

Well, I disagree (provided that Mayweather's year and a half out haven't turned him rusty).

Pac will kill him. He may actually kill him in the ring. Hatton is a small version of John Ruiz hit and hold. He cant hold what he cant catch.

I watched this on my laptop while on vacation. God bless justin.tv. Free live stream.

I put $400 on Pacman and won $133 lol I wanted to bet the win by KO but my wife talked me out of it. I hate when you bet on a guy to win by KO and he wins by decision. Makes you sick.

 

[CaptTurbo]

BTW Pac will beat Mayweather Jr. Its just a mater of will it be an ugly decision (hard to score with guys like Mayweather running away all night) or a KO. If he gets Mayweather in a corner just once its over.

I pray that Mayweather hasn't become too rusty with his time out recently. He deserves to prove many of you wrong. The man doesn't get the credit he deserves as one of the greatest of all time. He doesn't, and never has, 'run away all night'. The man is a technician, picks his punches and will be too clever for Pac.

IMO

He's probably the greatest defensive fighter in the history of the sport. Pacman could be one of the greatest offensive fighters in the history of the sport...

Pretty Boy hasn't fought since December of '07 I believe... He'll have his hands full with Juan Manuel Marquez later this summer. That will provide a very solid indication if "rust" will be an issue for Mayweather...

I can't wait for the fight. I really hope he has a year or two left in the tank. He gets himself very well prepared for fights so he will know how much he has left.

Marquez will be tough though, you're right about that.

I was actually surprised that Mayweather chose Marquez for his comeback fight... Maybe he feels that Marquez is slowing after all those incredible battles with Manny and others...
Marquez is another amazing offensive fighter. However, he also get's hit pretty easily... Really tough chin though and can absorb huge amounts of punishment. Should be a good one, but in the end Pretty Boy is by far the more talented boxer and should prevail...

 

[CaptTurbo]

FYI Pacman has become one of the best counterpunchers int he sport along with Mayweather. Notice all of the KD against Hatton started with counters.

Pacman can counter and assault. Mayweather only has counters. HUGE difference.

Saw the fight on HBO's free preview last night. Manny has some of the most powerful and fast punches I've ever seen. Hatton couldn't even see most of his landed punches coming. It was pretty amazing.
