Pacquiao Vs Hatton : Light WelterWeight Titles : May 2nd

The True Free-Man
Manny-Pacquiao-Ricky-Hatton.jpg



After a few short weeks of back and forth negotiations, both Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton have agreed to stage their May 2 bout in Las Vegas. Hatton's side was attempting to have the fight take place in England. Richard Schaefer, CEO for Golden Boy Promotions, who represent Hatton, has advised the Los Angeles Times that both fighters are now on the same page.

Schaefer and Pacquiao's promoter, Bob Arum, will hold meetings this week in Las Vegas with Planet Hollywood executive Robert Earl and MGM/Mirage sports chief Richard Sturm - to reach a decision if the fight should be held at the Thomas and Mack Center or the MGM Grand Garden. Both fighters have agreed to the terms and Schaefer expects the deal to be signed soon.

"Ricky's preference was the U.K., but he's realized that was not the best place for this fight, just like the Philippines [Pacquiao's home country] wasn't," Schaefer said to The Times. "This is right in the middle. Being at 147 was clearly not Hatton's best weight; Ricky's unbeaten at 140."​
 
well, PBF couldnt even hurt Oscar

PBF KO'ed Hatton

Manny destroyed Oscar

Manny will kill Hatton

So does Manny just fight who PBF fights now?
 
Best of luck to you Hatton, I wish you the best...

but, I'll tell you what will really happen,

because Hatton is a real fighter, which I really respect, he's going to get cut or swell something terrible, because Manny gets those punches in and is good at making contact.

and when Hatton really swells up something terrible, or is cut so bad he can't see, he'll get his tail whipped so bad they'll stop the fight if manny doesn't knock him out.

I really like Ricky Hatton though, thats just how I think it'll end up...

I'd pay money to see someone knock Mayweather's bitch ass out though, sad thing is there isn't anyone fast enough that can actually throw a punch with some weight in it to do so... so the fairy will continue running around the ring like Ray Leonard, pussing out and trying to look flashy.
 
Flloyd Mayweather destroyed Hatton with his speed, I think pacman will do the same, Ricky Fatton just won't be able to keep up with him.

if you can chase him around for 40 minutes then maybe.

mayweather won't start trading throws unless he feels safe doing so.

Mayweather is a great boxer, one of the greatest for sure, but he isn't a good fighter, and if you get him in the position where he might actually have to fight, mayweather would be asleep on the floor.

the guy can't fight, but he'll box the hell out of you.
 
This is a tough one, I like both fighters. I'm pulling for Hatton. Ricky is going to get whooped but that's what he does, takes a beating and keeps going. I think Pacman will take this one, but Ricky will make it a fight.
 
I cant get no value on picking Manny to win straight up, so im putting some money on Manny to win by KO, TKO or DQ. I really dont see this going to decision. Manny 9th round KO.

however we all know it doesn't work that way.

I honestly will give Hatton more of a chance than most of you guys, rob has a great point, however here are some factors that make me think twice.

#1 Hatton never looked good at 147 even against fringe contenders so to see him get floored by by PBF makes a lot of sense. Hatton has always been best at 140 which is the weight class that this fight will be in.

#2 De La Hoya and PBF fought at 154 Oscar made weight and came in to the fight a much much heavier guy than PBF who came in under weight, vs PacMan Oscar dropped all his weight down to 140 and then came up for the 147 that night in the ring he came in weight less than Pacman making him by weight the smaller man.


and finally the real X factor and that is Floyd Mayweather Sr. there is no question that Hatton is a scrappy fighter and his mauling style is what got him where he was, but he as always had suspect defense which is where Sr. comes in, I think you will see the Best Hatton ever in the ring.

with all that said my prediction: Hatton will suprise everyone by giving Pacman a fantastic fight just like JMM both will get hurt and maybe a knockdown, however both fighters will hear the bell in the 12 round with Pacquiao getting the win on all 3 scorecards, the comentators will all remark how great of a fight it was and it was the best they had ever seen Hatton fight.
 
Marquez should be upset that this isint his fight , everybody and their mothers knows that Maruqez beat Manny in the last fight . Was a terrible split decision . Im not a Marquez fan but i could see it and thats why i have trouble saying this fight is "the 2 pound for pound best in the world"

Anyhow moving on , Manny will beat Hatton IMO , Hatton swells and cuts far too easily and as of right now he has only beaten a poor Paulie Malinaggi (sp?) and a over the hill Kostya Tszyu.

This will be a similar fight to that of Hatton vs Mayweather Jnr. Manny will be too quick, too powerful for the brave but fairly straight forward Hatton.

I think we will see a late round KO or towel from Hatton's corner.

problem with the comparison is that PBF is bigger than Pacquiao

in terms of size Hatton is bigger than Pacquiao and PBF is bigger than Hatton

why does manny looks taller than ricky, when ricky is listed an inch taller than him, and these dudes are so fuckin small, its pretty hard to believe, manny is 5'6 138
 
Word from Russ Amber is Ricky got knocked out during a sparring session just a couple weeks ago. I dont see Ricky standing a damn chance if that shit is true. Hes also been disappointed with Floyd Mayweather Sr. and his training team.. not a good look for the Brit.
