pac rejects 52-48, does he really want this fight?

Pac doesnt want the fight.

 

I'm claiming that if the split is around 55/45 , than I know what I'm talking about when it comes to negotiating. Pac can get a 55/45 split. Therefore, he shouldn't accept less.

 

Let us be realistic. this si business transaction also, i can't understand why people are so upset about this.

there will always be offers and counter-offers. Most of us are working professionals, or in business. heck, most of us will even negotiate a raise with boss right and he will a counter-offer.

let the man negotiate what is fair to him, eventually, the law of supply and demand will kick in and both pac and hatton will find an equilibrium. you can't blame pac. if he retires after a potential fight with mayweather, he would still be thirty.

in a way, he will have to live the next 35 years of his life based on his earnings from his fight. he is a smart fighter and a businessman. You do not have to look far, just look at tyson and holyfield. both did not manage their money well, and look where they ended up.

this fight will happen. no need to get your arse up because they have not signed. the fight is still about 14 weeks away.

 

Of course the split is going to be "around 55/45" any idiot could tell you that, Hattons even offered 52/48 FFS!!!! It doesn't mean that you know what you are talking about where boxing negotiations is concerned. You could drag in people off the street, give them a 5 minute briefing on the Hatton-Pac situation and they'd tell you that the purse will end up getting split "around 55/45".

 

by around 55/45, I mean no less than 54% for Pac. If any idiot off the street knows it would end up like that, then are so many claiming it should be 50/50?

 

Saying what it should be and saying what it will are two different things. IMHO 50/50 is fair, but it will end up between that figure and 55/45, being able to deduce that doesn't mean I'm some sort of boxing guru.

 

You really are DUMB! :hat

 

They should just make the deal that the winner takes 60% and the loser 40%.

 

How can you be so DUMB? :hat

 

all these "negotiations" shouldn't be out in the open in the first place. i can't recall a fight where all details of the fight contract, all the maneuvering and behind the scenes activity are so freely known by the boxing public. fight negotiations are always this way especially in a very big money fight such as this. the difference is that we normally don't know what really happens during such negotiations and just learn that the fight is signed already and roughly what the purse split is w/o any specific and intimate details whatsoever. well, that's until this fight, that is.

so, i don't know if all of this is just a ruse to promote the fight. to make it controversial so that the general boxing public will be intrigued to watch it more despite the current economic downturn. but if it isn't, there was a failure somewhere in the process since these people should supposedly be professional about these negotiations and not do it out in the open for all to see.

 

I'm starting to hate this little ****. :fire

 

Which is exactly why Pac is a little f--ktard.

Eat this little motherf--ker Fatton.

 

bullcrap. if pac takes this fight and wins this don't show up around here dumbass

 

Well if this fight doesn`t happen,Hatton will probably fight Juan Marquez.I wonder who Pacquiao will fight to elevate his status.

 

it was arum who weakened pac's bargaining position here by immediately agreeing unilaterally to that 50/50 verbal agreement. he tried to rush and bully pac into accepting that agreement. but to his surprise, pac didn't just "play dead" and go along with it. that's why pac probably said that "foreigners put one over us" statement. pac has probably lost his trust and confidence on arum. i won't be surprised if he bolts out of top rank because of this.
