55-45 will be the final deal.This is what team Pacman is trying to get and they will get it.You start high in negotiations then when you drop a bit the other team thinks you have compromised.This gives a win-win feeling.Team Pacquio are excellent,far smarter than Mayweather's team.This explains why Pacman has all these endorsements,he has a solid team behind him.Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View Post
Team Hatton will not get 50-50,they dont deserve it anywhere.Pacman is the man to beat in this fight,he destroyed DelaHoya someone Ricky Hatton didnt want to face.Looking at the resume Pacquio never backed from a challenge.He fought the best but Hatton cherry picked people.You all remember Hatton refusing to fight DelaHoya and how at one time he said he wasnt ready to face Mayweather.You all remember Hatton facing a washed up Castillo, surely its payback time.You can cheat some people all the time but not all people all the time.
Now on Mayweather,Mayweather could have made a lot more money than he did if his team was as smart as Pacquio's.He has a good team team behind him but not an excellent team and doesnt even know how to package brand Mayweather.Comment

no way floyd-pac is more money than hatton.Originally posted by sofreshhh View Post
hatton will bring in 1 mil. u.k. ppv buys at about L20 pounds each.
it'll also do decent ppv numbers in the u.s.
floyd-pac would struggle to get to 1 mil. buys in the u.s.Comment

If the pot is not split 50/50, I'm not even purchasing the PPV at this point. Hopefully Ricky's team just tells Pac's to piss off and he fights someone who wants it. This is beyond ridiculous!Comment

I say Pacman should accept the 50-50 split, beat the crap out of Hatton and give team Hatton nothing more than an 80-20 split on a rematch... if they want another beatdown that is

Yep, like it or not, Hatton brings in a **** load more than Floyd does by himself. Simple fact.Originally posted by Left Hook Tua View Post
This is starting to piss me off though. Pac is just getting moronic with this stuff, or whoever is advising him to do it. They are asking for more when it's Hatton's belt on the line, Hatton will be bringing the money to the fight and it's the division in which Hatton is the King. I'm starting to feel a slight disliking for this, Pac and his team. Humble my ass.
When Hatton's team say they can get as much money somewhere else they are talking out of their ass, but, they can get very close to getting the same amount and if the fight is right they can get the same amount of $. Pac cannot get anywhere near the amount of cash that he will get with this fight anywhere else, and that includes a fight with Floyd, a rematch with Oscar or anyone else on the horizon. This is ****ed. 50/50 is a good, fair, solid deal. If anyone should be asking more it's Hatton, but they're being perfectly fair. Why not Peso Pacquiao?
