    Personally yes- Pac is a superstar like Leonard was in the 80s.

    Since losing, Hatton still has a strong fan base but the Paulie fight didnt draw the fans (PPV) like before. Hatton's popularity is on the decline.

    I am not arguing about what was verbally agreed etc but what you think the split should be in your opinion.

    Pac should be asking at least 60/40 for all his fights, DLH shafted him imo

    Is it really necessary to make the same threads? there are over 20 threads about this..

    And why would u care about the fighter's percentage when ur never going to see a cent of it?

    Let's just talk about the boxing matches.

    yeah, but as a fan i could care less how much these guys get i just want to see them fight
     
  8. I would ask Freddy Roach and Bob Arum, they seem to think that 50-50 is a good deal.

    If Hatton is on the decline why didn't Manny take the original deal

    60-40 Purse to Manny but Hatton keeps the UK PPV's

    Exactly man, i mean who gives a **** who's getting paid and whatnot.. That aint none of our concern, cuz most people in here don't know **** about the business side of boxing anyways.. There are so many threads regarding this issue..

    Let's just analyze the fights.

    Hatton brings more money to the table than anyone simply because of his fanbase and the UK ppv buys. i dont think hatton v malignaggi was ppv. 50 - 50 is spot on. Mayweather didnt even get a look in on the british ppv buys what accumulate a fortune in itself. Manny wont get any more money fighting anyone else at the moment.

    i don't think DLH shafted him. DLH was the moneymaker and always has been.

    He should get more punches landing on his greedy face. :D

    Now seriously, the original deal, 60/40 for US incomes and the whole Asian market promised him more money than he got vs. DLH. But only then Team Pacquiao realized that the UK market offers so much money, that Hatton, the more popular of the two, would earn significantly more.

    I agree that PacMan deserves more in the US market, where he's the more popular (but not even the better ticket seller). But why would he even get a single cent from the UK market, completely based on Hatton's popularity?



    Original deal again: PacMan US 60% and Asia 100%, Hatton 40% and UK 100%. Now let me ask again: who's more popular? Even with a deal such like that, Hatton would've earned more! PacMan will only make the same amount of money as his opponent, because Hatton lets his hands put on his OWN market which is insane. That's a big f*cking sacrifice from Hatton, the more popular of the two.
