Manny's been knocked out by much smaller people than Ricky (more than once) and I expect him to get knocked out again.
And to my knowledge, Hatton doesn't say he IS the best pound for pound, more so that he wants to prove he is by winning these types of fights.

Correct. Ricky's not making any assumptions yet - he knows it's a title he still has to win.
I'm not so sure about the outcome of this fight though. I wish I could share your confidence, but IMO this is a very dangerous test for the Hitman. If he does win it, he'll have earned it.

looking forward to this, its going to be a tough test for hatton and should make for better viewing than the khan fight.
I don't get the whole anti hatton thing, yes he can be cocky, but he's a great boxer who like Joe just wants to prove how good he is.
Is it because its not british to have a swagger?

I don't get it either. I usually cheer against any English team / sportsman but I like seeing Hatton succeed.

Fast but no power. May mark him up a bit yes, but if Ricky can get a few body shots in it will change things rapidly.

If Hatton is allowed to get close yes... otherwise it will be another Mayweather.

Mayweather had more power and a better defence that Manny. I'm rather optimistic.

A tiny part of me wants to see Manny v Mayweather though... I really think Manny would out think him.

Hatton has said if he beats Manny he will be pound for pound the best fighter.
I don't *hate* Hatton but he does irritate me with his whole 'I'm a normal lad who likes to eat pie and chip' bit. Whatever.
[/quote]
Which he is, and always has been, and always will be.
Maybe you'd prefer him if he was called Amir Hatton?

agreed, hatton is not that type of fighter. he was very gracious when he lost to mayweather. This will be a great fight - ideally you hope it is so good that in conjures up a magical rematch as there is little else for these fighters to do after a match like this -maybe a comeback from mayweather could be a lovely bonus for the winner.

Wheres the fight, is it in the US or the MEN?
Really looking forward to it, the build up programs have all been great.

There's risk involved for Hatton either way though, because Pacquiao can dig a bit too.

uh oh. The brother in law's going to have revenge on his mind after the khan fight.
Weeks leading up to it, he was telling anyone who'd listen he was going to get me battered. Guess who was chucking their guts up an hour after the fight. 4am's a scary prospect.

Anyone worth a mention on the under card?
If the fight goes beyond the 7th, or 8th at a push, I can't see Ricky winning it. Pacquiao on points IMO.
