Hatton: Manny will get a shock!

IBO light welterweight titleholder Ricky Hatton spoke to reporters today about his May 2 clash with Manny Pacquiao. “I strongly believe I will be as fast as Manny,” said the Hitman. “If I’m not as fast as Manny, I’ll only the narrowest of margins behind me. He’s going to get a shock.” Hatton wasn’t particularly impressed with Pacquiao’s KO win over Oscar De La Hoya. “I can’t think it was too hard to outbox Oscar that night and too hard to beat him…I would like to think I would have done the same.”
