    The best prime JWW that Hatton ever beat was Paulie Malignagggi. That should tell you something.

    do you mean worldwide? cause pac is not only popular in the US but also in latin countries such as mexico, puerto rico, cuba, etc. as well as asian countries like japan, thailand, malaysia, china, indonesia, the middle east, etc.

    Mayweather took 70% against Hatton but gave up the UK PPV. The actual final split was not far off 50/50. Outside of Mayweather, who may or may not return, what other fights does Pac have put there that could earn him what a Hatton fight could? The reason Oscar gets the lions share of the purse is that he generates the bulk of the PPV revenue, this isn't the case with Hatton-Pac.

    Mayweather didn't get 70% of the total revenue for the fight though, as has repeatedly been explained.

    He got 70% of the American side of the purse.

    the guaranteed purse split was US$25m for pbf while hatton got US$10m. i don't think even getting all the UK ppv buys makes up for that. mayweather probably got around 35-40m total from this fight. hatton probably US$20-25m.

    Kostya Tszyu wasn't in his prime. Hence why I said, prime JWW. Tszyu was a damn good fighter. However, he was up there in age and relatively inactive.

    good, he deserves 60/40. He has accomplished far more. Hatton does not desreve the fight and is only getting it due to his popularity.

    that was 70% of the guaranteed purse and does not include US PPV buys yet.

    well if hatton did 1.25million uk ppv buys @ $30, if he got $20 from each buy that's another $25million.

    Bradley is 25 years old. Hatton was fighting domestic cans when he was 25. If Bradley beats Holt, that definately trump the Paulie win.
