Prediction: Manny Pacquiao versus Ricky Hatton

Hi folks, it's prediction time as 2009 gets off to a great start after the action packed Mosley-Margarito fight. Manny Pacqiao versus Ricky Hatton is finally signed and on for May 2nd. I see this fight going into the late rounds with Hatton trying to make it more of a brawl and Manny trying to keep his distance from Hatton's dangerous attack. Manny will box carefully and try to wear Ricky down. If Ricky can not get inside or trap Manny against the ropes during the fight he will have a hard time winning. I don't see Manny allowing that consistently enough for Ricky to pull out the victory. I have this fight going the distance with a unanimous decision win for Pacquiao. Don't rule out a late round TKO victory for Manny Pacquiao either ...

Stay tuned for more exciting predictions in future posts. Including the next stop on Marco Antonio Barrera's comeback trail against prospect Amir Khan (March 14th), Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Juan Diaz (February 28th) and Roy Jones Jr. vs. Omar Sheika (March 21st).
