First of all, I am glad to see that boxing has something exciting going on again - it used to be a great sport and has lost something since the 90's but things are looking up right now.

This is going to be a great match but I think Pacquiao has the edge, Hatton is a brawler so I wouldnt count him out but in terms of technical skills Pacquiao is light years ahead of him.

pac man's speed is going to be the problem. Now with mayweather senior as hatton's trainer, I expect to see more movement and defense, but speed is speed and pac has a ton of it, plus he is just relentless with super quick hands...

Hatton is a brawler so he has a punchers chance, but I see pac winning this one...

I agree that having Mayweather Sr. in your corner is a plus but in his last fight, Hatton reverted back to his brawling style once the fight was under way. I would be concerned that Hatton's instincts are to always revert back to that style but we will see in this bout. For him to win he will need to fight a more skilled match.

Like tkf said, Pac is quick and has superior skills so he has the edge but once the bell rings you never know what will happen. I would at least like to see this fight go 7+ rounds and be competitive. Pac vs. De LaHoya was a joke.

What a complete squash. You need to turn on the highlight shows because Pac-Man knocked out Hatten with one of the most vicious blows you will ever see. Easily the most devastating punch I've seen in a long time. Hatton was completely outclassed by Pac-Man.

That was absolutely vicious. I hope Hatton got a good payday for this because a blow like that will end your career. This is a must see knockout, a totally unmatched fight.

Come on 2nd round. Just got back from watching at my friend's house. That was a devastating punch.

that was one of the most vicious knockouts i've ever seen... damn, i really felt bad for Hatton seeing him lying there like that... scary stuff.

Pacman is unbelievable... i thought he'd get a decision cuz a washed up De La Hoya took him to 9 rounds, but wow, he came out swinging in this fight & took it to Hatton from the get go.

The guy is savage, smart, and swift, and gets some great leverage on his punches. His straight left is about as straight as you can get.

Manny is a bad man. Nothing personal. He is just doing his job.
