    hatton is an elite fighter,and king of 140.
    i think it is an insult for pacman to ask for a 60/40 split.
    what do you think hatton should do?

    I think he should take the 40% and be happy. Pac has loads of options. Hatton doesnt have any other fight that could further his legacy and finances like this one could

    if pacquiao thinks hes such a huge star let him keep the us and phillipines ppv revenue while hatton takes the uk ppv and split the live gate 50/50, that should be fair. :good

    Let's face it, PACQUIAO calls the shot. So HATTON should take the 40%. If he can't figure that one out, he can go on proceed with his THREATS. We'll see how smart the HATTON camp really is. :hat

    yeah, oscar, pbf, jmm.

    is there any fights out there for pac that would generate more than 50% of a pac v hatton fight? pbf and he's already fought oscar, no one else will make him more money.

    A fight with Pacquiao isn't even his biggest option, Pac is not a draw for casual fans. Ricky should walk.

    Other:

    Negotiate for a winner-takes-all scenario, then get in the ring and have his head kicked in by Pac.

    End result: no money from the fight and no name for the resume.:D

    You make an interesting point here. We don't know what the 40% actually stands for, do we. 40% against Pac might mean $40 million or it could be significantly less, we don't know.

    If indeed 40% of fighting Pac is in the very high millions, then as you said "Does he have another opponent to net that type of cash?"

    Ya know if Ricky TRULY wants a 50/50 split...there's one way to solve this.

    Drinking contest. First one to pass out loses. 50/50 if Hatton wins, 60/40 I kick yo ass if Pac wins.

    actually both of them could tell each other to **** off but lets face it. Who has more options. Whos the guy everyone wants to fight? From Darchinyan to Margo, all of them wants to get in the ring with Pac. Even Ricky, he said so himself he wants to fight the best, he wants to retire on top. He needs Pacquiao more than Pacquiao needs him. Im guessing its gonna end on a 55-45

    :lol:

    Oscar's been retired by Packy. If he choses to fight again, his stock is now at an all-time low.

    PBF? Are UK fans sadists? What's the point of seeing Floydy beat Hatton silly again? If May cannot be arsed fighting a legacy-building fight with the current P4P king, how much more a Hatton? :yep

    JMM? Not so fast. Unless JMM wants to be sued for breach of contract. He has his hands full already with Torito...

    Hmm, choices, choices, choices. :hey

    It should be 50-50, Ricky is the champ and a massive draw, and manny is the best p4p and a massive draw. This fight should be a 50 50 split lets stop ****in about...
