    well if pac feels he deserves more after beating oscar, we cannot force him to take an even share. he would be the one suffering the consequence of not getting a money fight in hatton. if the cards were reversed and hatton was the one who have beaten oscar and is the p4p king, he has the every right to demand the same thing pac is asking now. of course its frustrating to us since we knew back then that this was a go and only pac is to blame for most people.

    I think Hatton ended up with more than Mayweather. The split was 70/30 with Hatton getting the UK PPV rights, the fight did 1.4 million buys over here. The proposed Hatton-Pac split is 50/50 with the UK money included which seems a fair deal for both men IMHO.

    I have a feeling that this is already a done deal. They just hyping the fight to create more interest/publicity just like Pac/DLH fight.

    Pacquiao has bargaining rights. He has other options beyond Hatton. Prettyboy Floyd is interested; JMM is still hoping; and a lot more good opponents that will surely make a good buck. Hatton to fight other opponent will not even make half of what he can get against Pacquiao even at 40-60 split.

    I definitely think Pac believes he would beat Hatton 100%, and is by no means trying to avoid it. I think he is probably being influenced by the people around him, which is unfortunately leading to greed.

    If Pac is so confident about his drawing power, Hatton should give him an offer of 60/40 or 65/35 and Ricky can take 100% of the UK PPV's.

    There it is. This is certainly a 50/50 fight when Hatton's UK PPV £s are in the mix.

    The reality is that Mayweather is retired and JMM isn't a massive fight outside of hardcore fans. Pac is in the same boat as Hatton in that the 50/50 split for Pac-Hatton is a damn site more than they'd get fighting for anyone else.



    These 2 either need to agree to fight for 50/50 for for 60/40 to the winner.

    i could of swore i heard this deal was sealed a few days ago, damn if this doesnt happen its bad for boxing as well as both of them, maybe even more so for pac because of the animosity he may receive from fans feeling he's gone hollywood

    Manny is the P4P king while Hatton is not even in the top 10 ledger. His three last outings is more than impressive than hatton's last two w/ PBF and Paulie. He holds legit LW belt and the enshrined two-time fighter of the year, ESPN champion of champions which way far from Ricky.

    I think Manny has all the bragging and bargaining rights. Its not all about moolah, MegaManny has more than enough of it. Its more of his pride and being the sports icon king he should be treated fairly well.
