Freddie Roach’s Fight Plan to Ensure Pacquiao Victory Over Hatton

Freddie Roach has maintained that the natural boxing style of any boxer cannot be changed overnight in response to Hatton’s trainer Floyd Sr’s claim that boxing fans will see a different Hatton when he squares off with Manny Pacquiao on May 2, 2009. Millions of Manny Pacquiao fans from around the world are in for a big surprise come fight night with the famous British boxer Ricky Hatton of England. The popular boxer from the Philippines is secretly practicing and developing a new boxing game exclusively prepared for him by Freddie Roach for his millions of loyal boxing fans to enjoy when Pacquiao sees action on May 2, 2209.

Freddie Roach has been successful in putting together a fight plan which he must have started right after Pacquiao?s ?Dream Match? with de la Hoya last December 6, 2008. It appeared that Roach had a premonition that Hatton was going to be Pacquiao?s next opponent.

Roach is now in Manchester England to be with his ward Amir Khan in his quest to end Marco Antonio Barrera?s boxing career.

Amir Khan is a 22-year old British boxer who is challenging the multi-awarded boxing champion Marco Antonio Barrera saying that he is out to end Barrera?s boxing career.

While he is out in England to ensure Amir Khan?s victory over Marco Antonio Barrera, Roach staff at the Wild Card Gym lead by Roach Assistant, former heavyweight boxing champion Michael Moorer assisted by Buboy Fernandez, are busy working out with Manny Pacquiao.

The Roach fight plan is a closely-guarded secret developed by Roach and tailor-made to counteract Ricky Hatton?s natural boxing style.

Roach must have prepared the plan for Manny Pacquiao based on the natural fighting style of Hatton. He has maintained that a boxer will have a hard time changing his boxing style in a very short period of time. To prove this, he said it took him many years to develop Manny Pacquiao?s right hand to make as powerful as his vaunted left hand.

For his part, Manny Pacquiao said in one of his responses to a question from reporters; ?The Hatton that you see today is the same Hatton that you will see on May 2, 2009?. In effect, he is saying that Hatton?s style cannot be changed overnight as his trainer Floyd Mayweather, Sr., Hatton?s trainer said
