I dont see Ricky coming out of this one....

Pacman is a far superior fighter, and he absolutley battered De La Hoya in his las fight.

Ricky did well, but Mallignagi is not as good as people were making out he was. I went up to the Citeh of Manchester stadium when hatton fought lazcano, Paullie was the undercard against lovmore N'dou, and on my count Lovemore should have won that fight...

Ricky has a lot of heart and i really like him as a fighter, but i dont think he is good enough to floor Pacman, although i hope im wrong and ricky knocks him out!

i think pacman for this as well, i like hatton as a fighter but just dont think he has enough to take out pacman,hatton is strong and quick but not even half as quick as pacman,pacman took apart a legend in the ring de la hoya in his last fight like he was an amatuer ok de la hoya has had his best years but even still pacman was miles ahead of him,7th round was unreal dont think oscar de la hoya threw a punch in that rnd

Thanks to those of you who have now explained why you think Pacman will win.

This thread will get larger as the fight nears, have a feeling it will be an interesting fight.

I would like to say I do not like Hatton as a fighter. Not since he lost to Mayweather at least. He showed no grace in defeat. He got smashed up but couldn't admit it. And he did get smashed up. But he won't look at someone like Froch cos he's too good. Too good to lose to Pacquiao? I don't think so. If Pacquiao is supposedly the pound for pound top fighter in the world, what the fuck was Mayweather? That's the fight I think we'd all like to see isn't it Floyd and Pac? Hatton is a side show, a big pay day.

Froch is a super middle weight.
But I agree this is just the build up to the Mayweather Pacquiao fight. Pacquiao destoryed De la hoya and I think De la hoya is better than Hatton so I can't see him winning.
