    Terrible advice from his lawyer if so.Hatton should phone Pac-Man cut out all the leeches on Mannys side
    Ricky:"Manny i'll fight you ,split the dosh even"
    Manny"Whos that Vitali?I beat you ass 60-40,deal ?"
    Ricky "Err no it's Ricky Hatton.."
    Manny "Oh your my Idol just like Oscar was!"
    Ricky "****...."


    Stupid I know,bored....

    I'd prefer he fight Hatton first. Hatton is in his prime and lineal champ at 140. He would be a great name for Pac's resume. Plus, the action the fight would generate. It would be nice to see Pac in another war again.

    Time for pac to be seen in another REAL battle. I hope this fight will be push trough, the fans should be treated well for the lifeblood of boxing to continue.

    You guy's are ****ing ridiculous slapping the "He's greedy" label on his ass...

    Ricky Hatton might be a big draw but so is Pac...Pac has more to lose on this fight than Hatton does. Ricky ends up gaining much more if he wins. I mean the guy will not only get a big purse, but probably jump up in rankings to 2 or 3 for beating Pac. He'll steal his momentum is such a thing were to occur.

    Ricky doesn't have to fund a single dollar to his country that loves him so much...Manny does. Hence the most logical need for the bigger purse. Manny has an army of mouths to feed as well as a team to pay for. Ricky has Oscar and his daddy and his daddy's daddy (Mayweather Sr.) looking out for him.

    60-40 is a fair draw. And so is 55-45...50-50 is bull**** :bart

    Hmm, that would be a lot of 'em Sterlings, if it comes about. :think It would be too high an estimate, given the time differential.

    I'd estimate the US ppv to be around 750k++ at the least.

    So if you say 750k buys @ ??? each - is it $50...... (US)

    Add 1.25m x $22...... (UK)

    = $65m generated on PPV revenue alone

    its just games to try and get more money. they tried the same thing with the oscar fight, pretended to pull out, pretended they werebt interested, and they are doing the same thing here. its so transparent.

    it would serve them right if hatton told them to **** off.

    I didn't know that Manny was supporting the Filipino economy single handidly maybe they should change the name to Pac-Land and have Roach as their President

    50-50's fair...

    In fairness, Pac had a little momentum going for him on the negotiating table after that thrashing of Boxing's posterboy. But 60-40 is just too much IMO. 55-45 is the most they should get.

    "Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao’s lawyer says he won’t accept a 50-50 revenue sharing for the planned May 2 showdown with Britain’s Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton and may look for another opponent."

    We need to kill his attorney....like really.

    It's a damn 50/50 fight. Don't make pac price himself mr greedy guy. Pac still doesn't carry the Golden Boy's attraction yet.
