pacquiao hatton fight- lasted two rounds

Post by altec »

Brutal. I just had to share this- after all the hype and BS, this is what the fight came down to..

It was a bloodbath from the opening seconds. Manny Pacquiao came out and stunned Ricky Hatton with blazing speed. By the end of the second round, Ricky Hatton was asleep and being fitted for a neckbrace. Pacquiao landed a left with seven seconds left in the second round. Hatton was out cold on the way down to the mat.

there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that he was going to win this one. and im not just saying that because im a filipino that supports pacquiao but lets be serious...pacman is in a whole different league compared to hatton. i find it amusing that hatton's camp (himself included) talked that much shit leading up to the fight only to have their man look like a complete rookie in that bout. pacman's left hook really caught him by surprise though. perfect setup by baiting hatton to keep guard on his left (or at least to be prepared for it, seeing as how he didnt have his guard up since the beginning of the match...you'd think he'd tighten up after 2 knock downs in the first round :roll: ) as he was getting rained on from pac's right about 90% of the time. then when hatton dropped his guard one more time -BOOM- pacquiao sealed the deal with that nasty left hook.

im looking forward to watching the pacquiao/mayweather fight. this match-up seems alot more promising. you got an aggressive relentless offense in pacman vs technical genius defense in mayweather. as long as pacman stays aggressive from the get go, doesnt ease up, closes any and all gaps to limit mayweather's brutal range, and really focus on his footwork to slip away from pretty boy's counter punching...he should be able to win. if mayweather has problems handling marquez though, ill be very comfortable putting my money on pacquiao...again 8)
