Roach still savours Hatton win

October 27, 2009, Club Call

Freddie Roach has said Manny Pacquiao's second-round knockout of Ricky Hatton was "the best night of my life".

Manchester hero Hatton was taught a harsh boxing lesson by Pacquiao in May when the Filipino superstar delivered on trainer Roach's prediction of victory inside three rounds.

The pair have teamed up again ahead of Pacquiao's eagerly-anticipated showdown with Miguel Cotto on November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

P4P king Pacquiao put Hatton down twice before ending the contest in round three and the manner of his demolition job still raises a smile with Roach, who told HBO's Pacquiao/Cotto 24/7: "Hatton, and I hate to say this about a world champion, he wasn't that good.

"The Hatton night, I was really satisfied, I was happy my prediction came true, and to see it work was the best night of my life."
