Could be fight of the year, and yet there seems to be little excitement over this fight compared to many others in the past.
What does everyone think will happen?
Also what about Carl Froch's fight, and the fact that it wasn't televised?

Soooooooooooooooooooooooo fking pissed off  . Going to the states with work in a day or two and Vegas straight after for a few days, but only get to Vegas on tues, can't get away from work earlier. Never been to a boxing match before and would loved to have gone, I would even have paid silly money as a one off to go and see this. Antonio Tarver is fighting the next weekend and tickets are only $75 so may go there as a consolation instead. |

Don't know why but I'm just not too bothered about Hatton vs Pacman. Wanna see Pacman vs Mayweather though! Feel sorry for Froch. A v good fighter who deserves more credit. It's no wonder he wants to fight Calzaghe because its probably the only chance he's got at a big payday. Only saw the last round but boy it was excellent! |

Too big and too much for Pacquiao you think? I'd like to hope that's the case, but just like the Khan fight - it'd be a guess if I said which way I thought this one will go. |

Looking forward to it but it looks a close one. I reckon Hatton but hope it's a classic.
Froch was a good fight but i think he's had to wait to long for his big chance and thats why he's passed most people by.

I dunno how I feel like this is gonna go- I dont know if its my heart ruling my head but I think Hatton for his size, body punches(and alleged increased speed) but then again I think back to the Mayweather fight and I thought Hatton then too....
But we seen what happened then and the bookies have got Manny as similar odds to what Mayweather was... really looking forward to it though as both Boxers love to come forward so should be a tear up-cant see it going 12 rounds whoever wins it.

I think we may be in for a shock in that Hatton will crush him,i only say this as i think possibly pacman maybe is being well overated due to his performance vs ODLH who was blatantly passed it,obv pacman seems a classy fighter but at 140 i think hatton rules that division and would even beat pretty boy floyd at that weight

Pacman is not overrated. IMO he's a legend already. Possibly moreso than PBF.

Hatton looks in the best shape of his life. He'll need to be, and I think he's going to surprise a lot of people (like he did against Tszyu).

Hope your right mate-I love the pacman and the way he fights but been a Hatton fan for a long time so hoping he can do it Plus think theres still a few doubters over the pond (even after Castillo, Tszyu, Malignaggi) so would good to prove them wrong |
