Pacquiao floors Hatton in Vegas

Ricky Hatton’s reign as light-welterweight world champion was brought to a brutal end on Sunday morning as Manny Pacquiao delivered a stunning second round knockout.

A crunching left hook from the Filipino knocked Hatton out cold with one second remaining of the round and the Englishman, previously unbeaten in the 140 pounds division, caused concern as he lay prone on the canvas for some minutes as Pacquiao launched wild celebrations among his devoted fans at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
