Ricky Hatton plans to blow away Manny Pacquiao, the world's best pound-for-pound fighter, with an all-out attack when the pair meet in Las Vegas on May 2.
Hatton is ready to unleash an early onslaught which he believes Pacquiao will be unable to cope with.
"Attack, attack and attack again. If you beat the pound-for-pound number one that is a statement," was the Mancunian's response when asked about his game plan.
"We are both very aggressive and both like to go forward but ultimately my size and power will be a factor.
"But it is not just a power thing, I'm working on my speed. I think they see me as a slow fighter and they will get a shock on the night just how fast I can be.
"I'll be keeping the same ferocity I have always had and when he feels my strength I don't think Manny will stand about.
"I think he will think he can out-box me like he did against Oscar De La Hoya (last year).
Hatton is delighted with the way his training has gone under Floyd Mayweather Sr and believes he is in much better shape than he was when he beat Paulie Malignaggi in November.
"We are only halfway through the training camp, there are six weeks to go and I think a lot of fighters would be happy with my speed, sharpness and timing come fight night," added the 30-year-old Hatton.
"I'm happy with the stage I am at but I just know my boxing ability, combination punches, jabbing and head movement is going to get so much better.
"I have a nice balance now and the fight can't come quick enough."
