    Hatton isn't pfp!!! Why would anyone ever consider giving Hatton more than number 1 pfp???

    Heh as less to lose... he isn't taking a chance... he is fighting up to an offer...
    I say "Boo!!!" if Hatton gets more to fight DLH than Pac.

    Nothing to do with boxing abilities and standings.....

    Hatton could pull 100,000 people masturbating in Wembley,

    your probably looking at 20 million USD on the gate alone!!!
    PPV for PBF vs Hatton was 1mill in the UK thats another 30 million!!! there is pleanty of money to go around!!!

    He deserves more than pac in that respect!!!!, but doesnt have the right standing for PPV in the US, DLH has huge pulling power!!

    Im sure they will work something out...Hatton wants a big pay day before he gets KTFO!

    I actually think hatton might have a chance at victory. If paquio can get a 12 round war out of dlh he simply wont have anything left for this fight

    Pac is the p4p #1 in the sport. Why the hell should Hatton get paid more? Because he has a loyal legion of drunk British fans? Honestly, I think Pac is a more universally recognized fighter than Hatton.

    He deserves the same or a bit less, both are major names in boxing today and that's what matters when it comes to money.

    This question is so stupid

    its like comparing The latest brad pitt blockbuster to some arthouse film

    the arthouse film is obviously better but pitt puts more butts in seats

    The PPV from Hatton's British fans will be huge and Hatton and DLH know it. It will generate way more money than the free TV that PacMan's fans will be watching his next fight on.

    So yeah Hatton has a right to demand more money.

    the cut for pac-dlh is actually 35-65. pac rejected dlh's first offer of 30-70.

    I would more argue that Pac man's numbers would be higher, it's just the British Pound and Ricky's fans are a little better off than the Philipino Peso and Manny's demographic financially.

    There's about 90 million Pinoy's living in the Philippines, there would be a huge number of those being Pac man fans.

    and practically all of those 90 mil know and support pac. when pac fights, it is literally a whole nation that hopes and prays for his victory. i don't think hatton has that much overwhelming support and popularity even in his own home country. i don't think any boxer does.

    Hatton and DLH are boxing's biggest stars.

    Oscar is filthy rich, I don't see any reason why he wouldn't do a 60-40 split.
