Mayweather fights on May 5th

[Mean Mister Mustard]

I agree that no matter which Hatton showed up against Pacquiao, he was going to get stopped. Hatton had a lot of strengths; he was vicious, a good body puncher, he was quick, and his footwork confused a lot of fighters, but his lack of defense really cost him. He could get away with it against lesser fighters but when he fought the cream of the crop, it got ugly.

I can understand why some would feel that Hatton was ruined by Mayweather though. Many didn't expect Pacquiao to run him over like he did, but I think they were overlooking how hard a hitter Pacquiao is/was. Mayweather is a sharpshooter and he whacks pretty good, but Pacquiao has dynamite in his hands.
