Fight night

Gonna pick up some food and drink - show starts at 6:00, main event starts...who knows?

Pacman isn't just the greatest fighter in the world today, but is one of the greatest in history.

His named is already in the history books.

Absolutely smashed Hatton, great stuff.

edit: Just read the poll options... only enough room for TKO or a decision?

2nd round KO FTW.

I could be wrong, but I think the ref waved Hatton off (didn't count him out), which would be a TKO, not a KO, even though Hatton was unconscious and never would have made the count.

We'll have to see how they score it, and I should have put KO in the poll, but I *think* this one was a TKO based on what the ref did.

Great fight even though it lasted two rounds only.



West, meet East.

Even though I'm more British (50%) than Filipino (~0%) I was still cheering for Pacquiao. Funny that. Maybe it's because every step of the way people thought he would lose to De La Hoya (because he's "small" like your typical Asian), and even though he was a 2-1 favorite against Hatton, there was still a lack of respect from the other side. Now I hear people saying that Mayweather Jr. would still be a favorite against Pacquiao if they ever meet - let's see if he even makes it past Marquez.

I like both fighters but its time for Hatton to call it a day, he is a great boxer but he was outclassed by the Pacman all the way.

Bring Mayweather on.

Pacman doesn't need to do anything else at all to prove himself, because really, what more can he do?

Defeating Mayweather would just be the cherry on top of a cake that has already been iced for Pacman.
