    yeah but thats the whole point if you include the uk ppv buys the lions share of the purse that floyd got was about the saem money hatton got. From what i have heard hatton isn't being offered most of the uk ppv revenue thats the problem.

    That is clearly pointed out. Though it shouldnt work that way. You work hard to get where you are and not where you came from. That is how it should be but it isnt.

    Exactly! Look......PPV has change the game completley. A guy like hatton has a crazy following that is unmatched by any sports figure. The point of this debat is who deserves the LIONS SHARE OF THE PURSE...not what is generated by PPVs. Hatton will ALWAYS make out better or even with his oppoent depending on who he is in there with. With DLH I'm sure DLH would have gotten more money OVERALL! But even when Floyd and Hatton faught...FLoyd got the lions share from the Purse! But when it came down to what each fighter made with their "perks" **PPV rev*** Hatton crushed it! He generated more dollars or Euros overall. This all really comes down to principle and the actual "PURSE" that is being offered to each fighter. ANd without a doubt PAC deserves the lions share of the PURSE.

    yes but thats my point from what i have heard hatton isn't going to get the majority of the uk tv revenue, i reckon hatton would take 604- if he was getting the uk tv revenue

    Whether he refused him or not, he moved up to fight Floyd and said he would move up to fight Oscar. So he is not afraid of moving up in weight if it's worth it. That reminds me that he has said numerous times he would move up to fight Floyd again.

    And I have no idea about Hatton having the balls to fight Marg. I don't think he has said anything about that?

    And you can search as much as you want to find these made up people saying Hatton has superior boxing skills. They don't exist, and you're spouting ****.

    No matter what PAC does or how much he gets from the purse Hatton will ALWAYS make out better due to his following and UK rev from PPV #s. There is no way that Hatton or his camp will agree to giving the lions share of PPV rev to any opponent! Just like the Majority of PPV #'s in the US will go to PAC b/c he's the draw here. 60/40 or 50/50 are the percent break out for the actual Purse....not the PPV numbers in the UK and US respectively. That's an entirely new contract and aggreement made by promotional outfits on behalf of their fighters!

    ????:huh This is boxing a sport for "FANS". Brits, Americans, Pinoys, Latinos who the **** cares. It comes down to enjoying a good fight bro. Sure one of your own will be fighting but American boxing fans enjoy the sport...not one or two fighters. We enjoy a good scrap like the nxt man whatever his nationality or background.......There are few Americans in the UK that will be "Serving your drinks" Partner......but you go to almost any city in the US and you'll find one or more of your "brids" or "mates" making their living serving us "AMERICANS". That is true! Not that there is anything wrong with that...I just find it funny or ironic you would try to throw that kind of verbal jab without knowing your facts.:good

    if you're talking about the UN security council, britain is one of the 5 permanent members (china, russia, britain, france and the US). so our vote carries as much weight as yours.
