    even Roach said he told pac to take a 50/50 split and fight him

    He's the p4p king and he's acting like it ... but what he has to understand is that there's a big give and take and he'll be cutting himself shot out of alot of fights if he keeps this up.

    If he really has turned down 48/52 then i would say no he dosent want this fight.I dont know why he feels he should get more money anyway 50/50 is fair i think.

    Pac needs to get down to his nearest flea market and by himself a new abacus.

    60% of nothing is nothing.

    People saying that it's Hatton who doesn't want the fight, I don't get that mindset.

    Pac has apparently been guaranteed 12m - 1m more than the guarantee for the DLH fight. Yes, Pacquiao is the higher rated fighter with more of a resume.....but he was the higher rated fighter at the time against De La Hoya as well, and he only got 30% of the money in that fight.

    Pacquiao won't get anywhere near as much as he can in this fight anywhere else, so I don't know how he can demand higher than 52-48 when it's not him that brings most of the money........

    Disappointing really, would have been an exciting fight to watch. Maybe it'll get sorted out yet.....

    even though its irrelevant now that the fight is official
    but it has been revealed that Hatton's backup "megafight" that they agreed with in case the Pac fight fell apart was Katsidas

    :rofl
