Pacquiao Destroys Hatton and Makes History

Manny Pacquiao solidified his legendary status as boxing's pound for pound king and possibly one of the best (maybe the best) of recent decades. Ricky Hatton tried to brawl in the first round but when they boxed he got smashed with power shots. He went down twice in the first round and got saved by the ref as he allowed Hatton to recover. In the second round, Pacquiao and Hatton started letting loose until Manny took control late in the round and landed a monster power shot that had Ricky Hatton stretched out for several minutes on the canvas. Manny makes a huge statement by KO'ing Hatton in the second round.

Next up is likely the winner of Juan Manuel Marquez and Floyd Mayweather. If Foyd wins, Pacquiao and Mayweather will be the two undisputed pound for pound kings of the sport. The fight would be absolutely massive.

  2. It almost did - he's lucky to be okay. Can't believe a former fly weight just did that to him!
