Pac has NEVER fought a good fighter in his prime, the closest he ever came was a MAB who had already had umpteen wars before he met Pac. A half-shot Erik Morales was enough to beat Pacquiao and a 35 yr old Marquez has taken him to hell and back twice. Hatton's very best days are behind him, but he's still very lively and he's the naturally bigger guy. Hatton has a good chance to take this, or at least make a war out of it if he can fight with the same energy he showed against Malignaggi. If you can find someone offering 2-1 on Pac, it's a pretty good bet to take.

Right now 5dimes.com has Hatton at +210 under their reduced juice option, and I will probably put a few bucks on him. Hatton has a relentless body attack and Pac has been KO'd by body shots before, although granted that was a long time ago. Pac weighed in at 138 without cutting any weight, and Hatton came in at 140 and will probably rehydrate to at least 150. The best way to win long term at boxing and MMA is to take a fight that is in essence a pick em, and put your money on the fighter with the plus odds...
