Comments Thread For: Hatton: Pacquiao Near The End, But Should Beat Rios

[Triumph 916]

Only reason why floyd beat Hatton was cuz he was forced to fight him at 147 and Cortez let floyd get away with his elbow like it was a Jon Jones UFC fight.

And Hatton still almost beat his ass

Even though Hatton himself said he couldn't hit him with a hand full of confetti? I guess your opinion out weighs the guy who actually fought Floyd! Smdh

Not everyone takes losses as hard as you Ricky. He has no idea how Pacquiao is.

He would certainly understand it more than you there bud

[Boxing Goat]

bitter maybe....

People could then post pics of Pac getting drilled by JMM.

It's Karma

Had Hatton fought Pac before he fought Floyd, he would have beat Pac

The Floyd fight destroyed his confidence and he was forever lost after that, changing trainers and styles

I don't know about that but I do know that the Hatton that faced Tszyu would have given Floyd and Manny a run for the money

Pac fought a shell of a Hatton, that's just facts

Floyd dismantled him so bad, that he changed his long time trainer straight away and that was IMO the worst decision he could make

He would have never been KO'd like that had that been pre Floyd.

Hattons chin was damn strong, I think prior to that he'd only ever tasted the canvas once for a split second, against some Irish boxer, I forget his name.

Floyd Snrs tactics and cardio led training regime was all wrong for Hatton, factor in he was depressed after the loss to Floyd and the accumulation of beatings had caught up with him and Pac was in his prime.

He said he felt gassed from round 1, he looked gaunt and weak imo

He beat Malignaggi though so he couldn't have been that finished...

Hatton was a good B fighter with a good engine but he had no defense and didn't move his head.

Stop the mythical Hatton revisionism. He came up against 2 A+ fighters and got whooped, that's all there is to it. Pacquiao is better than Hatton, that's all there is to it.

"He didn't look good against Tim Bradley"

Judging didn't look good against Bradley. Pacquiao looked fine. It's the Marquez KO that looked bad.

Yes Hatton, everyone knows Floyd destroyed your career to the point you fired your entire team just to hire a Mayweather to teach you how to box. lol Poor guy.

Everyone knows Pac will be ok, he's just fighting another fighter who has never fought at WW before. War Pacc

Another fighter? Who are all those fighters that never fought at WW before facing Manny? I like to see this huge list of fighters .... GO!

and I'm sure you will be there front and center to "protect" your hero if someone mentions that Floyd beat up on a Hatton that was not made for WW and had just 1 mediocre fight before facing Floyd. Hatton was so confident in that fight (sarcasm) that he went back down to 140 for several fights until Floyd called him back up knowing full well that Hatton was going to be very average at WW.

I disagree, he had fought and stopped Paulie the fight before and looked pretty good. He was in with a better fighter in Pacquiao, plain and simple.

This is coming from one of Hatton's biggest fans btw.

The Hatton who fought Tszyu vs. any Pacman is a different story though.
