Although there is no exact date yet for the fight that will engage two great and popular boxers of today, Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton, many are already discussing who is going to win between the two. Will it be Manny Pacquiao or Ricky Hatton?

Most bookies favored Manny Pacquiao who recently defeated the popular “Golden Boy” Oscar De La Hoya. They believe Manny Pacquiao will come out outstanding if ever his fight with Ricky Hatton will be pushed through.

With Ladbrokes, Pacquiao, who in eight months came up three weight classes to fight for his biggest battle, is 4/11 to beat Hatton, with the well known Mancunian available at 2/1.

Spokesman of Ladbrokes Robin Hutchison said, “Pacquiao ended De La Hoya’s career on Saturday night and we fully expect him to end Hatton’s too.”

However with Stan James, there is slight less clear-cut and unclear results, with Pacquiao at 4/9 and Hatton at 13/8. According to Charlie McCann of Stan James, “we think Hatton is the stronger even at light-welterweight and if the fight was to take place at the MEN, City of Manchester Stadium or Wembley then Pacquiao might think he is fighting half of Manchester. Also, for Stan James, Pacquiao is a brilliant boxer and has already proved his worth in the boxing industry but maybe he just met the “Golden Boy” Oscar De La Hoya at the right time. Thus, this may have possibly allowed Pacquiao to go all the way with his punches.

On the other hand, from the records of Sky Bet, Pacquiao is 2/5 while the other, Hatton, is 7/4.

Right now, it is believed that before this year 2009 ends, the fight must already take place at light-welterweight so bets with Stan James stand firm and in countenance.
