    I guess Hatton is too close to his prime for Pac to consider fighting.

    Don't be naive guys - Pacman would probably fight Hatton for a bag of peanuts - it's ARUM that greedy SOB!!!!

    Bull****.

    Pac said in an interview "I would be a laughing stock if I accepted 50-50 for this fight".:-(

    The same Arum that said the 50/50 split was fair and should be signed? Sure, it's Arum...

    Arum is actually even disgusted with Pac right now. Not only did he offer up a better split that Manny turned down, but he also raised Pac's guarantee to 12 million dollars.... whis is a million more than he even got for fighting Oscar. That's only his guarantee as well... he will also get his share of the PPV's too. Pac turned it down. That's just pathetic, and I guess that it proves what people have been saying is right. All along, I have defended Manny, but this is just bull****. Hell... even Roach points out before his fights that the guys that he is fighting are past their prime. I guess that they just didn't believe that Hatton had slipped enough yet.

    what is wrong with you guys
    pac has been fighting the best opponents possible for years
    ducking no one
    it seems like most of you guys have only been following boxing recently
    pac has had a very long career starting out at 112 where he won his first title
    for anyone to run through so many weight classes is certainly not ducking

    "Ducking" is a strong word but, going by the evidence avaliable, I think theres every chance that Manny doesn't really fancy the job...

    Well....not if he fights Floyd! That "ducking ****" is going after a FARRR more dangerous opponent in Floyd than anything Hatton could ever bring to the ring. But its a shame his Ego has caused him to miss out on some MAJOR PAPER. PAC didn't "DUCK" Ricky.....he just let his ego drive away a mega financial event which on all levels is stupid!

    IMO pac is not going to get a bigger payday than against hatton, kudos for ricky to sticking to his guns and not accepting the 60-40 like him or hate him hatton makes money and is a big draw in his own right.
