Pacquiao’s southpaw stance to frustrate Hatton
abs-cbnnews.com
Just like what happened in the Oscar de la Hoya fight, Manny Pacquiao’s southpaw stance could be his key edge against UK’s toughie Ricky Hatton.
In a recent article written by Gary Todd of BaraggingRightsCorner.com, one of the weaknesses he pointed out about Hatton is his difficulty in handling left-handed fighters.
Todd said the reigning International Boxing Organization (IBO) light welterweight champ had problems against former champions Juan Urango, Eamonn Magee, and Luis Collazo. All of them are left handed. read more

PACQUIAO DOWNS SPARRING PARTNER IN 1ST DAY OF SPARRING
By Ed de la Vega, DDS
Los Angeles, California — DARN, IT’S ONLY THR FIRST DAY!
At the rate things have started at the Wildcard Gym, Freddie Roach, the famed guru at the gym may have a hard time finding more sparring partners for Manny Pacquiao.
And what happened today, the very first day of sparring, may serve as a warning to Ricky Hatton and his loudmouth trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr.
The message to them is: Quit talking and start training, because Pacquiao is on a war path. read more

Roach Taunts Hatton, Predicts Pacquiao Knockout in Three
By Ronnie Nathanielsz
Celebrated trainer Freddie Roach is playing the numbers game regarding who will knockout who in the showdown between Roach’s prized possession Manny Pacquiao and Britain’s Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton in Las Vegas on May 2.
Roach who arrived in Los Angeles on Sunday night from London where he steered promising lightweight Amir Khan to a bloody fifth round technical decision win over ageing Mexican legend Marco Antonio Barrera was obviously peeved over Hatton’s claim he would knock Pacquiao out in six rounds.
After answering with an expletive, Roach said “we’re going to knock him out in three.” read more

Pacquiao to face an ‘aggressive, defensive, technical’ Hatton
GMANews.TV
Normally you wouldn’t associate Ricky “Hitman” Hatton with all three adjectives, the Mancunian known more for being a slugger than a boxer.
But the 30-year-old fighter claimed he would display all these traits on May 2 when he defends his International Boxing Organization and Ring Magazine world junior welterweight title against pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao.
“I think people are used to me, that sight of Ricky Hatton, which they still get. And I’m aggressive but I’m also technical as well. You’ve seen the boxing side of Ricky Hatton now, and that’s going to stand me in good stead. I’m being aggressive and defensive and technical at the same time now,” Hatton was quoted by the Sporting Life. read more

Hatton? No big deal – Pacman
By Abac Cordero
MANILA, Philippines – Manny Pacquiao has faced bigger opponents before, someone as big, as tall as Oscar dela Hoya, that’s why he said he’d have no problem against Ricky Hatton.
“Hatton is bigger than I am but this isn’t about big,” said Pacquiao, at 5’6” 1/2 just an inch shorter than Hatton, only bigger in the sense that he’s a natural light-welterweight.
Hatton said recently he’d make sure he’s the bigger fighter in the ring when the two superstars lock horns at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on May 2. read more

SIZE MIGHT MATTER THIS TIME – HATTON
sportinglife.com
Ricky Hatton says he’ll be the biggest man Manny Pacquiao has ever faced come May 2.
Pound-for-pound king Pacquiao defied ring logic back in December when he battered one-time middleweight Oscar De La Hoya into submission in the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
All the pre-fight predictions had the ‘Golden Boy’s’ size proving too much for the Pacman on the night. read more

Hatton: I’ll be the bigger man this time
By Dino Maragay
MANILA, Philippines — British junior welterweight star Ricky Hatton today said that when Manny Pacquiao steps into the ring for their fight, the current pound-for-pound boss will be in with the biggest opponent he has ever faced.
Referring to Pacquiao’s bout with the supposedly much bigger Oscar De La Hoya wherein the Pacman even outweighed the Golden Boy 148.5 pounds to 147 pounds on fight time, Hatton (45-1, 32 KOs) told sportinglife.com that this won’t be the case when he and Pacquiao (48-3-2, 36 KOs) share the ring on May 2 in Las Vegas. read more
