The fact is, at 52-48 with a share in the UK PPV's and a $12 million guarentee, Pacquaio is going to make a lot more from a fight with Hatton, even at 52-48, than he would with a fight with anybody else at 60-40.
Since you sound interested and I don't judge someone by different sexual taste, I encourage you to use online services. Internet is a sick place, so you'll probably find something tasty for your appetite.
:deal Couldn't agree more. Hatton's face-first hugging style might be fun for Brits (or maybe they just love him because he's from the UK). But these greedy idiots at GBP need to understand that Manny has produced some of the most action packed fights in the last five years, and he's the undisputed pound for pound king. This guy Richard Schaefer doesn't know a thing about boxing. It's yo yos like this that ruin the fight game. If these guys were really good businessmen, they would take the fight at 52-48, and if Ricky could win (unlikely in my opinion), they could lure Mayweather out of retirement for a rematch at Wembley. They THEY could take the lion's share of the purse plus do 1 million British AND American PPVs. Idiots!
Yes, Floyd Mayweather beat them both and there fans are making excuses to this very day as to why they lost.atsch
I can see where matey got his shite info from with regards to hatton/Malignagi PPV figures, he did 200K in the US for the Malignaggi fight. PPV wise in the UK, estimates said near the 400K mark. But these petty arguments are all from biased users who clearly hate Hatton, a coveted 2 weight world champion. Hatton brings his A-Game, period. There is not one fighter in the world who can bring in over 1.4 milion PPV’s thse days, especially at 4am. Pacqiaou knows this, and he look a lie a complete muppet now. Until someone can name me one elite fighter, who can fill out 70K seater stadiums, and claer 2 million viewers for a fight, then the case is closed. Theres actually 2, the other is Calzaghe. ****ing Haters.
DeLaHoya has moved up 5 times and challenged almost every top fighter in each division. Like him or hate him, He's fought practically everyone. Hatton got a gift against Luis Collazo, a good fighter, but not elite. He was destroyed against light punching natural lightweight Mayweather, a fighter that DeLaHoya had a war with and lost a disputed decision.Hatton only insists on fighting smaller men or shot fighters. They have nothing in common other than their common profession and greed.
The only credit you can give DLH is that he has balls, but hell, I would have big balls if someone told me I would get $12 million for fighting someone, its all relative. At the end of the day, DLH is an over rated, marketable fighter who relies on his Mexican connections to step in the ring and be judges a worthy opponent. How can you say Hatton fights shot fighters? Ironic that Hatton called out Kosta, Mayweather and recently Manny. You not going to give him credit for hat like you are with crawling up Oscars arse? Facts: If you are a knowledgeable boxing fan, or if you take The Ring magazines ratings as at least 70% accurate, then Hatton has fought 8 fighters in the last 4 yeas who have been ranked in the top 10 of their respective weight divisions. 2 of which were P4P top 3, one was the greatest fighter of the last 10 years. Throw in names like Castillio, Collazo, Urango, Maussa,Tackie, then you have an impressive and solid CV. Do not forget, Hatton has a good 3 years left him in him. If he fights Pac, Diaz, JMM, maybe even another go at Mayweather, then you are looking at a CV that is a hell of a lot more impressive than Oscar’s. This site makes me laugh. 45 fights, 1 loss to the world P4P champion, 70% KO ratio, 2 weight world champion, and he is made out to be as effective as a post Tyson Frank Bruno. Seriously!!
when will people realise that boxing is a global sport? lol when will people also realise that Hatton's fight with Paulie was PPV? Just because it wasn't in the States doesn't mean it wasn't, the Brits had to pay Sky Sports PPV fee's and considering how small this country is (consider I used to live in ATL and Georgia is bigger than England!!!) it did good numbers.
