Exactly right. You sure as hell would see more fire in their eyes then, huh? and a whole lot less of fighters appearing to just show up for the paycheck.:good
I believe the UFC does something similar where the winner gets an extra cut. The incentive makes it more compelling.
I think you are 100% correct that Pac is attempting to back out of this. Outside of JMM, Pac has feasted on worn down warriors for the last couple of years and knows Hatton is still too fresh and dangerous.
Pac's just trying to make the best business decision for himself which is not uncommon for him now. He went through his due diligence with Oscar which is what he's doing now with Hatton.
What's Hatton's fan don't realize is that they are talking now of millions on PPV sales in the UK because Hatton is suppose to be fighting P4P king Manny Pacquiao. Remove Manny Pacquiao from the equation and Hattons is going back to square one once again without the benifit of a PPV. It is moot and academic that British fans are going to heighten the sale of PPV because he will be fighting the P4P king so in a way Manny is instrumental for such a thing to materialize. Hence, I say Pacman deserves the bigger share as recognition to his prowess and status. Hatton is lucky to be given the second chance to fight a P4P #1. That only comes in a lifetime. This is everything for him to gain and as such needs pay the price. If he is successful in defeating Manny then he'll be in the driver seat next time he fights. But for now, Pacman deserves the the props...
Is it bollocks. Because if Hatton walks away, Pac doesn't get ANY of those British fans. If you swap Pac for a Mayweather rematch - the British fans will come. Maybe not quite as many, but they will. They won't buy Pac's next fight if it's not against Hatton. DLH didn't get the money in the fights because he was the best fighter, he got them because he was the main reason people that fight.
You know what i hope Pacman walks away from the fight now and tries to get a PBF fight. Then were will Hatton and his so called fans be. Back to **** money fights with guys like Malignaggi. Me get a clue. How about half the ****ing Hatton fans get a clue. Hatton might bring PPV money but thats it. Manny brings the legacy the P4P Ring King Belt. Manny brings Nike he brings everything far more than just a few British fans and a few more PPV buys. **** me. I really hope Manny just moves on. **** it Hatton needs Manny more than Pacman needs Ricky. And your telling me to get a clue.
