Pacquiao Warned, Take 50-50 or The Hatton Fight is Off!

[Dave Rado]

i think manny as very naive since hes too humble, people are in his head, manny is too good and gracious of a person to be playing head games for money

Yes he's just getting his advice from the wrong people - he should listen to his promoter and his trainer - especially Roach.

60/40 for the Pacman. Hatton is only a big name in his country and he aint a Top Fighter. Hurry up and sign the contracts you two so I can buy my tickets. I hope this pisses Pac even more now that Hatton is demanding an even split even though he aint done anything major and even ducked Delahoya.

Still Pac by bloody brutal TKO over Hatton.

60/40 for the Pacman.

Then you don't want the fight to happen. It won't happen unless Pac backs down, Arum and Roach have both said so.

Hurry up and sign the contracts you two so I can buy my tickets.

Well if you do want it to happen, Pac will have to back down whether you like it or not, so you'd better hope he does back down. Or stop pretending you want it to happen.

He should listen to his ****in gut, and himself;from past tapes. I will fight you anytime, anywhere. sound familiar???? HE SAID THAT IN THE phillipines in an arena full of people.

HE TOLD MARQUEZ THAT

Manny should be lucky to get 50/50 split!! Let's not get greedy!! I bet you there will be more hatton fans, than manny fans in the arena!! Take the 50/50 AND QUIT YOUR CRYING!!

hatton can get fights vs casamayor(casas willing), Oscar would still like to fight hatton, Juan diaz, Marquez, victor ortiz, and other 140 ranged fighters without having to look for options like cotto ,clottey and margarito whod all beat pac down so hatton has edge, pac has to make no money vs soto, campbell, judah, and valero

hatton will always sale out in london, regardless of opposition, he can pull a fast one like mayweather and fight bruseles and wembley will still sell out, hatton doesnt need a name fighter to sell out,

[savorduhflavor]

Maybe if this "Great guy" Pacquiao stopped being a moron and giving all of his money away, he wouldn't need to be a greedy ******* asking for a 60-40 split.

This fight should be 50/50 or even 55/45 in favor of Hatton. Yes, Pacquaio is the top fighter in the sport but Ricky is more popular. Rick brings the fans and deserves more. If Pac doesn't like it go fight someone else and make far less money.

Let's see what happens if the fight falls through?

Pacman:
Pacman fights Valero or Soto either which is not a guaranteed win. PPV numbers will be less than 300,000. Pac makes 4 mil tops.

or

Pacman gets Mayweather out of retirement takes a 40/60 split in Mayweather's favor. PPV possibly does 1 million buys, but definitely not more than DLH/Pac. Makes less than he would have fighting Hatton.

Hatton:
Hatton fights JMM (if he beats JD) on May 2nd also known as Cinco de Mayo weekend. The Ring Lightweight Champ Vs Ring Jr Welterweight Champ. JMM gladly accepts 70/30 split in Hatton's favor. US PPV buys could be close to 600,000 while UK buys do just as well as a Pac fight. Hatton will make about 10 mil or so while even Marquez makes close to the 4 mil Pac makes in his fight with Valero or Soto.

or

Hatton has rematch vs Mayweather because Pac did not agree to the 60/40 split in Mayweather's favor. Fight does well all the way around. Hatton still making more money than Pac.

this is good and i'm glad, as a fan of both fighters, there is no way in hell that it should be 60-40 for either guy, both bring a lot to the table and deserve a 50-50 split. i'm really glad that arum us laying down the law with this, and is backing the 50-50 split, and basically isnt objective to the fact that schafer and hatton will leave the fight on the table and walk away, if it isnt 50-50.

also, this makes arum kind of look like an ass, with a verbal agreement, and then his fighter pulling some **** like this, i would do the same thing myself, i would be all up in my fighters ass if he pulled some **** like this, i wouldn't care if it was my cash cow either too. a verbal agreement is a deal made in honor of each mans word, pulling some **** like the demand of 60-40 is either a bad judgement call or a serious flaw in ones character..............


the bad guy in this whole deal here in manny, or whoever is the one that told him to demand 60-40................. right now manny looks like a greedy douche.............. delusional to think that hatton doesn't draw any water either, that is absurd..........
