Early on, Manny Pacquiao [-230] is a pretty significant Sports Odds Betting favorite to defeat the underdog, Ricky Hatton [+170], in their 12-round Light Welterweight Championship fight later this year.

"It will be an honor to fight Manny Pacquiao. I challenged once for the pound-for-pound 'title' when I fought Floyd Mayweather. Obviously I came second," Hatton told a group of Manchester reporters this week. "I'm brimming full of confidence that I'm going to win. I've always thought that, at 10 stone (140 pounds, 63.5 kilograms), I don't believe that anyone would beat me and I still firmly believe that… I promise you I won't let you down. This time I'm going to do it."

Hatton, who has been desperate for a shot at the reigning pound-for-pound king, had difficulty dealing with the rollercoaster on-and-off speculation surrounding this fight. "I was told a couple of weeks ago that the fight was and that we'd agreed with Bob Arum. When you pick up the paper and read on the Internet it's on, it not on, I was absolutely devastated. The OVER [-145] and UNDER [+115] for this Manny Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton Betting Odds Preview has been set at a combined total of 9½ rounds.

“They don't come better. I'm the best 10 stone fighter in the world, he's the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world," Hatton said. "I'd like to think I'm one of the biggest attractions in boxing. I don't think I've seen Manny Pacquiao in a bad fight. I've never had a dull fight. Get your house on me. I fell short once when challenging for the pound-for-pound title, I won't do it this time."
