Take Hatton to win on points against Pacquiao
Manchester’s light-welterweight king Ricky Hatton fights Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Casino in the early hours of Sunday morning, UK time. It should be a fascinating contest and here at BetUK we fancy Hatton to win it on points (available at 11/2 with BetUK). Hatton has taken his career to new heights with his new trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr and a more professional, healthy approach to living between fights.
Although Pacquiao is extremely fast for our money Hatton, who has a height advantage, will wear him down and win on a points decision. Hatton is bigger and stronger than Pacquiao and if the referee lets him fight his fight, which is a rough, dirty, pub-brawl type of fight, he should definitely be able to come through. It will be a hard-fought encounter though and almost certainly the most difficult fight of Hatton’s career.
