Not confirmed but probable as there are no creditable opponents left for him to beat. He is a proud man and will not continue and fight nobodys or has beens like Khan and Hatton.

Pac-Man has never fought at anything like 147 and I'll be amazed if he lasts long, the Golden Boy may be 35 but he has always had a great chin and I can't believe that Pacquiao will be able to produce the power or land the volume of punches necessary to really hurt him. There's no-one to really excite Pacquiao at 135 bar Nate Campbell, Marquez is still bleating but he's had two gos already - you can't blame him for fighting De La Hoya because it's worth a fortune, but it's a mismatch.

time to admit defeat and retire. He wouldnt last 2 rounds against either of the Klitchkos or David Haye.

i bet ODLH is glad he took that easy fight.....pulled out of the fight at start of round 9, probably didnt win a round....was totally out boxed....MP was awsome. Hatton v Pacquaio? what a fight that could be at light welter weight.
Could be the end of DLH in the ring...shame to see him finish like that.

That confounded all of the critics because nobody tipped pac man to win even the bookies had ODLH as firm favourite.

Thats good because it made 1 of the fights worth paying for.

Not good to see DLH finish like that, reminded me of the legendary JC Chavez fighting on too long and getting busted up by a younger, quicker fighter who'd moved up through the weights....care to guess who that might have been?
Audrey Harrison - what is the point? Surely he'll retire now. If only he'd kept the ego under control when he turned pro and not been so adamant that he was already the finished article and so nobody could teach him anything then maybe, just maybe, he could have been something.
Froch/Pascal - what a fight, one of those where both come out of it with a lot of credit. I'd love to see Froch/Kessler next, or maybe Froch/Pascal II.
Tyson Fury looked good in his debut, although the opponent really offered nothing. Not often you see someone that big putting his shots together so fluidly, and it's not often you see a heavyweight (especially one that massive) win a fight with a body shot. One to watch IMO.
Khan - as I predicted, we really learnt nothing new about him. Needs tougher tests before anyone can have a real gauge of where he is.

Don't forget the big one Stevie boy !!! I am seeing Ian on Friday I shall discuss this with him then and we will kick it off in the new year!!
Got to say I totally under estimated Pascal, what a fight !! He will come again. Froch meanwhile now should get a nice trip to America for a "super fight". I would fancy him to beat Taylor although very hard to call. Froch was much better once he stopped trading and started trying to box.
Lets hope Hatton can now be set up with the pac man. I struggle to make a case for hatton winning that match up but would be a great occasion especially if at wembley

No it didn't, it confounded you - lots of people thought MP would win and then go on to fight Hatton. You were pretty much alone in your bullet-proof confidence for ODLH.

If you read the bbc boxing site they all said it wasa total mismatch and the ODLH would win very early and so did the bookies who are not usually far wrong.
Very sad to see such a god fighter go 1 fight too far. Other than for money there is nothing for Hatton to go for. It makes you realise how far off Khan is when MP can still make lightweight and Khan is thinking of going up a weight to fight Hatton.

Every boxers opponents are hand picked but Khans are more so than most in order that he is not exposed too much as being shit.
Sorry wrong word he isnt shit as he has some ability more a case of being weak.
