Hatton-Pacquio is a 50-50 fight

[Bobby Shaw]

Both men's camps are throwing Mayweather's name in the hat.Tha's just a negotiating ploy.Hatton is trying to get leverage in the negotiations because Manny is the hot thing at the moment.Manny is trying to show he has options.Everyone knows options have value (if you dont believe it show a girl how desperate you are .).

Back to the fight:
Manny is quick,he hits hard and moves a lot.Bring in Hatton the punchbag and you picture Hatton quitting in the 6th round because of a one sided beating.Right?no

Hatton is better than people think.Very clever,bring in Mayweather Sr the defensive genius and Manny wont be landing shots at will.Manny is not exactly that elusive.Watch Marquez and you will see Manny gets hit.This is the reason Manny will never beat Floyd Jr.

The question is can Manny take Hatton's shots?Maybe but him winning isnt a walk in the park.He might win but the fight could be a great fight.

Verdict 50-50 for me.

Well you sumed it up for me.

I agree this is a hard choice to pick. It could go either way. I Just hope Manny dont go into this fight thinking i beat DLH, so Hatton will be a bit easier maybe..
Believe me Pac, Hatton is a different kettle of fish, and Pac needs to train like he is training for King Kong this time, like DLH said.

No chance. Manny will destroy Hatton. Watch.

What performance from Hatton would make one say he can beat someone like Floyd or Pacquiao?

[rizkybizness]

Manny will make Hatton look like he was mauled by a chainsaw

[KingTito]

I honestly believe that Manny is on another level. I said the same thing about Mayweather before he fought him. Manny is an all time great.

Also, to say that Manny will never beat Floyd is pretty ****** in my opinion. Manny is an all time great fighter, and the #1 p4p fighter in the world. Manny is fast, has incredible footwork, a great chin, he'll come at angles and not to mention, incredible determination and will. Fighting and beating Manny Pacquiao would take everything you can possibly offer. To say that he has no chance of beating Floyd is either nuthugging Floyd or hating on Manny.

60-40 Pac for me and i'm a massive Hatton fan.

I agree PBF is not going to be fighting either though.

Hatton is a good fighter, but Pacquiao is on another level from him. I am really really confident that this would be a walk in the park for him. Hatton looked more calm and settle in his fight with Paulie but his defense still isn't up to par for Pacquiao, I do think it is a great clash of styles but in the end Pacquiao is just too good for him. Hatton really doesn't look like he could take a punch. I see the 8th round of Hatton-Mayweather happening in like 3 or 4 rounds of this fight until it gets stopped in the 8th.
