    The dude in your avatar was widely considered one of the best fighters on the planet the night Pac annihilated him back in 2003.

    He did the same to Golden Boy promotions. Agrees a deal then stabs them in the back.

    Cotto was the champ who lost his belt in a very entertaining and highly anticipated fight, and now is getting a rematch as many former champs have gotten. And it was Arum who is setting this up. YOu think Margarito actually went and asked for a rematch? :lol:

    Hatton was the challenger for Floyd' belt, and lost.

    Do you HONESTLY think the situations are the same? :huh

    PAC is in a stage where in he cannot be accused of ducking anybody. Im just dissapointed we might miss one of the great fight in this generation. I blame Pac for that.

    I personally think 60/40 is fair for Pac all things considered...He is p4p1, he just destroyed Oscar, Hatton is not unbeaten anymore and Pac is naturally the smaller man by some margin.

    But if it means the fight doesnt come off then thats gay and very UnPac, he is supposed to be the guy who has the balls to face anyone, regardless of money.

    50-50 in what will be a huge money fight is still a hell of a lot of dough.

    What are they fighting for? Hatton's title.

    I think Hatton brings as much as Pac, from any point of view.

    Fans: Fatton brings a country of obsessive fans
    Title: Fatton's got it
    Name: Pac beat an over the hill ODLH and now he thinks he is a golden girl

    Pac, pull your finger out. Two great fighters sharing a massive purse.

    Share the purse so Fatton can live in meat pie luxury!!!!!!!!

    Thanks..

    Oh yes Hatton-malignaggi wasnt on PPV. I think the fight will get on on a 55-45 deal.. Pacquiao is just being slick like saying you want 50/50.. i want 60/40.. ok let's meet halfway :)

    Pac has become a *******.

    Pacman you little ****er, I'll fight you for $100,000 plus expenses. Albeit at a catch weight of about 180 pounds.

    Why cant that logic apply to Hatton? Hatton doesn't even fight guys in his own division. When he does he chooses the weakest opponents. This fight needs to be made and the Hattons need to quit bitching.

    :huh

    Castillo is the only fighter Hatton has faced that fought in a lower weight class prior.
