Hatton V Pacman................

[fred]

Well, not in the cinema where I'm at.. when the camera showed Hatton with eyes rolled back... we were actually silently praying... the cinema hushed for a while... then the camera panned on to Manny... so they were cheering again...

Thats good to hear at least..
I have seen a couple of fights where the losers ended up in wheel chairs..One a Brit the other a yank..Huge underdog,Nigel Ben was never the same person again after his fight with Gerald McClellan(the G man) who was all set to be an all time great..

Manny should be advised to put his ring celebration on hold when his opponent lays motionless in future..
The only thing he did wrong on the night IMO.

I agree. Just look at Alli... My coworkers Dad bumped his head and was in a comma... I do hope Hatton is okay...

your banned

i hope i'm wrong but i don't think amir khan is in the same league

It is possible that they might fight in the future if Pacman will not retire soon, me thinks..

He he..
The 2 numbskulls that backed out of bets with me were nearly crying yesterday..
At least I bought the beers for them to cry into though...Like a true gent!
I agree with Arum though..Manny`s now set to be the best boxer of all time.
When he`s president the Pound will go straight back up to 100 and beyond so that a good thing I guess..
Very disappointed with Filipino`s at the cinema yesterday..A woman behind me was laughing at Ricky while his eyes rolled back and him looking comatose..They shouted that maybe he was dead and the rest stood on their chairs and laughed along with her.
They also seemed to find Hattons mother and Fiance`s grimaces amusing too..No concern whatsoever by anyone there for the sportsmans safety..
Surprised and disappointed puts it mildly.

Well done Manny but your people let you down this time and they disgusted me.

My brother & wife watched it at Trinoma and paid PhP600/ticket just to watch it... Expensive right? and a friend in US paid $50 PPV

If will happen Floyd M. jr vs Paquiao will fight? another excitement hehehehe!

Will Floyd jr hire Floyd Sr to be his coach?

freddie roach is a clever trainer and there was the result 2nd round ko! no matter how much hatton trains he wont grow out of his old habbits! he will always be a sloppy fighter.dont think hatton will quit at his age maybe another 2 fights? he wants to fight at wembley hatton is one of my faves still cus of his previous (early ) fights.

@aug06 Juan Manuel Marquez will fight mayweather in jun/jul then the winner will take on pacquiao.

[NotYou]

Me and the wife have been re-enacting the fight. Of course I am Ricky "brown" Hat on, she is the other bloke.

I am 6' 2", she is 5' 2", but we both weigh the same, I spend 5 hours a week in the gym, she spends 24 hours a week in the shops. So, we are fairly evenly matched.

I tend to win.

Did you miss me?

[bornatbirth]

Did you miss me?

i missed you

when manny loses his next fight you will all be like babies?

i could even beat him,hes so small

Oh no........... not again why dont you divorce your lazy wife instead So you stop moaning about her ? Hows that ................

[jencha8569]

manny would destroy mayweather too .
no one can live with mannys power and hand speed.
thats why he number one in da world.

[topbuzz121]

@ sophie and fred
to be fair though if it was manny on the floor would the british (whos had a few drinks) laugh and crack jokes? some do some dont... oh well at least hattons ok now he will be back to his old chirpy self soon enough.

That was a thashing? nah, de la hoya got a thrashing! hatton was knocked down to early!

[bornatbirth]

why?

boxers know what the risks are dont they!

they get in the ring for fame and fortune,if they get hurt thats there problem!

i watched the benn/mcclellen fight and every one thought benn was beaten before the fight and when he won it was great for benn!

i dont think anyone was bothered about mcelellen when benn won,until after the fight did we all know that he was really hurt?

pacman won,let the fans have there fun

[fred]

Why not..? Its called human empathy..If you knock someone spark out and he doesnt move for two minutes then perhaps its time for concern..
What on earth does Pacman say in his prayers at ring side??? The mind boggles.

it was great for benn!

Ask Benn how "great" it was for him...
He would do anything to be able to turn back the clock..He`s said it on many occasions since..Not only has he visited him in the States and raised money for him he`s become a born again Christian over it for cryin out loud!!
I rest my case.

[bornatbirth]

yep ban boxing?

incase you get punched!

[aromulus]

Helf & safty is coming out with new rules soon.

[jimeve]

Helf & safty is coming out with new rules soon.

I see the gloves coming off now.lol

Boxes have a choice to go in the ring or not.

Not like animals, roosters, sabang what ever its called, I call it ******* sick.

[bornatbirth]

these guys take the money and when they get hurt they start crying,i have no time for them!

why should pacmans fans be concerned for hatton?

sounds like a few sore losers to me!

Because as discussed on another thread somewhere on this forum Filipinos beleive in god and god cares for everyone so they should too....
I wonder what God thinks about fighting for money?

God probably had 1000 pesos bet on Pacman,thats why a little divine intervention ensured he won

Very good

[Piamed]

I believe that the Pacman has improved consistently over the last few fights. The Money Man is a highly gifted ring master who knows his craft very very well. He employs phenomenal defensive skills and marries them with outstanding precision and mesmerising counter-punching.

Manny has a great chin, is a big hitter and has fast hands but I believe the key is whether The Money Man can frustrate the Pacman by deflecting his biggest weapons and countering with those medium sized ones of his own. If the Pacman can keep calm, make few errors and slow Floyd down he may be in with a chance, otherwise The Money Man will coast to a points victory or score a KO if Manny gets careless.

In any event, it will be great event between two phenomenal pugilists!!!!!!! May the best man win.

[Piamed]

As nice as Manny is, and he genuinely is a nice guy, he would make a terrible politician. He is very poorly uneducated and would simply be managed into position by those who would use him for their own personal gain.

Mind you, looking at all the 'intelligent' leaders around the world, I do not necesaarily believe that intelligence is a prerequisite. My view is that many leaders defy logic once they have secured their position. I persoanlly do not know how any leader can drive past people in their own country who are sleeping on the streets, dying because of inadequate resources, etc. yet go home to their palace knowing they have enough money in the bank to save a great many lives.
