British viewpoint
editThis is written in an entirely Filipino viewpoint it would've been nice if someone can add what the Brits are doing about this. –Howard the Duck 16:12, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
TKO or KO
editI believe that Manny KOed Hatton. According to the Wikipedia article about Knockout Manny did to Hatton is technically a pure Knockout wherein Hatton lies unconscious. The 3 times knockdown rule does not apply here according to what I heard on the commentaries. I will change the TKO to a KO because many of the external sources say it is a KO including this one Triadwarfare (talk) 10:28, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

- You gotta point all of them quickly as I'd be going offline now, unless somebody else wants to do it. –Howard the Duck 18:03, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
==Fan page=- I have removed the following as this should be restricted to a page on Manny Pacquiao and this page is still in danger of looking a little one-sided
"acquiao won four title belts prior to the fight: the WBC flyweight belt, the IBF super bantamweight title, the WBC super featherweight crown and the WBC lightweight championship. He was a "linear" champion in the featherweight division, and after defeating Hatton, became one in the light welterweight division as well. Sugar Ray Leonard said that "If Manny does it, he'll deserve all the accolades anyone can give him. This is one of those records that, man, it's a rare, rare feat."[1]" Jacobsdad (talk) 11:36, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Title is Wrong
editHatton is the B-side to this fight and promotion. Just google for promotional poster. This should be titled "Manny Pacquiao vs. Ricky Hatton".
