The Hitman will be crowned pound-for-pound champion if he beats Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in arguably the biggest fight of the year.

Whats your predictions? Minee:

I think it will go all the way to the 12th round and Hatton to win on points! Can't wait, it's a fight between two really talented boxers.

Theres only oneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Ricky hatton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on!!!

I'll be watching. Really interested to see how Hatton performs being only his second fight with mayweather sr. as his trainer. Desperately hope he wins but can't see it being anything other than a knockout for Pacquiao, with the ref stepping in to stop it. . .

I've said hatton to win but it's soo soo close, i can't see any of them losing! Hatton has got the ability to knock Pacquiao out and seriously damage him with his body punches but with Pacquiao, he's a guy who doesn't feel pain! Before every fight he goes into a room and gets hit with a stick so he can't feel pain. Now thats a major advantage.

Come on the hitmannnn!!!

Completely outboxed
Granted we only saw 2 rounds, but Pacquiao looked awesome. From the first knockout you could see Hatton didn't really stand a chance. Pacquiao was so much faster, threw more punches, landed more punches and just generally was by far the better fighter. And the knockout punch was awesome too!
Shame to see Hatton decline so quickly

Hatton has failed miserably again, he should retire now. He won't get any other big fights. Shame really as i really like Hatton but he's proved he's just not good enough!

Pacquiao v Maywether - fight of the generation! Bring it on.

I think Hatton is good enough, but if you look at him whoever he fights they always seem to just tower over him. He is a bit too small IMO

LOL I called a Hatton loss when it was announced. He didn't have a hope, you could tell in the pre-match nonsense, Hatton said the fight would be "brutal".

He is still one of the greats, very few Brittish boxers make it in America, he did but not anymore.

It was time to go When he was KO'd by Maywether, even more so now.

Hes had a great career, and its been class watching him. Ta for the memories.
