I really can't comment on who I think wins, I just hope it lasts a while cos it could be a classic!

One thing to consider is the fact it took Pacman 9 rounds to get rid of David Diaz, and he is even easier to hit than Ricky, plus ODLH recent comments of Pacman not having hurtful punches. With these points I see either a Hatton KO or Pacman points win

I think it will be quite a close fight but Pac will catch him when he tries to get on the inside and win by UD

Hatton by late stoppage. Manny's victory over DLH should be overlooked. Im sure the current crop of guys at Lightweight and LightWelter would have beaten DLH that night. The man had nothing.

Rumble young man, Rumble.

Looks like the "troll" knew what he was talking about!

To be honest even though he winds people up he does pick fights quite well. That is of course if all the different names over the last couple of years are the same person? I'm guessing this is Simpsons?

To many British posters get caught up in being patriotic when picking fights which I can't understand at all. At the end of the day your honest view is gonna have no bearing on a fight anyway. Anyone who's seen plenty of Hatton and Pacquiao should not have been picking Hatton. Sure picking fights is subjective, but Pacquiao clearly had many more advantages and had simply looked more impressive throughout his career.

In all honesty I expected a Pac man stoppage but I would never have expected it so early. I thought Ricky would drag Pac into the trenches before going down bravely in the second half of the fight.

Probably the best prediction so far this year you cult status on boxrec

Great prediction

North East Boxing fan may owe you a tip of the hat.

The big worry I have for him is if Pacman jumps on him early.

Really hate getting things right - serious as well - that fight was sickening to see in my opinion.

I have a feeling Pacquiao will KO Hatton in the second.

I'm also guessing that Compubox numbers will show Pacquiao landing 73 of his 124 punches.
