My hat goes off to Pac man. He knocked Hatton the fuck out. but how hard is it to knock some one out who stands right in front of you stationary. Hatton obviously threw Mayweather's game plan out the window from the start. He was "way" too over aggressive and played right into Freddy Roach's plans. Hatton reverted to what he does best which is try to bully a fighter, but clearly Pac is not the amateurish fighter he was just 4-5 years ago. The key to Pac's success is clearly a longstanding relationship with Freddy Roach, who has the perfect fighter with the right skill sets to instill his game plan. That being said, had Hatton attempted to stick to any thing he was taught (which is hard to do if you haven;t been doing it along time), he could have made this a better fight. He had absolutely no head movement, he rushed right into Manny wrecklessly, and got caught with shots he couldn't see. He didn't lead with a jab, and for that, he got knocked the fuck out. Even Manny said he felt the power in Hatton punches. The thing I was most surprised about was the fact that Hatton would stand stationary in front of a puncher. That last knock down, Pac almost looked like he didn't know what Hatton was doin, like he was being baited by Hatton just standing there, then he was like fuck it, if you're gonna stand there half guarded and not move, then take this punch with you on your way down. Again, my hats off to Pac. He came in this fight well prepared. Quick hands, slick movement, brought the power etc. I think his best bet is to clean up the 140 pound weight class. There are alot of great fights waiting for him there.

As for Mayweather/Marquez, even in a year and a half lay off, I don't see Marquez beating Mayweather. The only way he could dbeat Mayweather is if Mayweather changed his spots over night, and you all know that aint gonna happen. He's a slick fighter with speed and sneaky power. He's a body puncher who will eventually get the fight with Manny by the end of the year, mark my word on that

I'm not completely blaming Mayweather for Hatton's loss. I agree, he would have gotten KO'd anyways. I think he did a horrible job training him, and should spend more time working on mechanics than writing poetry and trying to act like he's the best. I am putting blame on the teacher, as well as the student. If you think Mayweather did a great job training him for Manny I have no idea how you can think that.

I am talking about camps and how Hatton's camp sucked ball sack. Roach taught Manny new things. Even simple things like "Hatton pumps his firsts before he throws." "He will be looking for the left so use the right". "He cocks his right hand back before he throws".

Also, Soto looked a little slow at first but I think its because Gaudet had an akward style, to Soto anyways. Didn't stand and throw like most of Soto's opponents. That uppercut was pretty bad though.

Hattons always not been that great, he still has yet to beat a legit fighter that is/wasnt old. I predicted a beat down and it happened and its not even cuz i hated Hatton so much. Hatton could have had the best training in the world but he does not possess the skills needed to be able to compete against Pac or Mayweather

Pacman smokes Hatton.... Hatton is a good fighter but has been unimpressive against top level competition. Also Pac has made a career beating fighters that only come forward throwing a lot of punches. Hatton comes forward and is not a big puncher. Hes a accumulative puncher that wears guys down and I just don't see that working for him against Pacman. I don't think Pac will lose till he fights a slick top level boxer (Marquez is the closest thing hes fought like that and he had problems with him both times).

Shh ya'll. Don't make noise, Ricky's sleeping.

Haha, man that shit was a blast, afterwards we went to Mandalay Bay and got to meet Team Pacquiao really quick, since Manny was performing (singing) all fuckin night. Haha. Moorer was shit face drunk.

Great times.



We'll see how Pretty Boy looks in July, a lot of people are counting Marquez out completely, but I don't think it'll be as one sided as a lot of people are assuming it will be. Though, I still see Mayweather winning that fight.

God damn Hatton got blasted out something vicious. I don't think any trainer would've helped Hatton beat Pacquiao last night, he was simply too good.

Also I keep seeing shit about Hatton should retire and this and that. He'll probably never be #1 on any P4P lists but he's only lost (officially) to two fighters that were #1 and to two future hall of famers. Hatton can still make a lot of money fighting in the UK and there's still a lot of good fighters at 140 that would love the chance to fight him. If Khan's able to take Kotelnik's title that would be a huge fight in the UK. Even a fight with Timothy Bradley, a two belt title holder, would be a good seller in the UK.

Hatton was good enough to get himself into major fights just not good enough to win them. At least he made more money than most in this business ..

thanks. How you like the gif I made?
Haha, that shit is dope !

Man, that left hook was textbook. KO of the year so far, I think it was even better than Viloria's. I swear you could hear the fucking pop of the Clitoris glove colliding with Hatton's chin.


Glad he was alright though, those type of shots can really do damage.

Agreed. I'd rank this over Viloria caving Solis. From the magnitude of the fight to the brutality of the knockout.
