    Wow. I expected an in-depth analysis and perhaps a superb explanation that could change my opinion. But this is just crazy. Prior to the fight with Pac, Hatton had just stopped Malignaggi and seemingly had gotten his mojo back. If anything he made more fans as back then every Hatton fan was calling his friends just to say, "Ricky's Back!" Besides, British fans are the most loyal ones out there. One loss isn't going to change things, especially when Hatton was slated to fight a smaller guy in Pacquiao. Excluding myself most people thought Ricky had a better chance at beating Pac than he did against Floyd. And a win over Pac would be HUGE. Their styles made for an all-action fight. Under those circumstances you would think Pac could do better than 850K buys. But there are still a lot of American fans who haven't quite accepted Pac as the face of Boxing. That said, Floyd is currently the bigger draw within American soil.

    You are saying everything on boxing is subjective? judging is subjective? even stoppages?

    That fool gets on the forum trying to tell jokes that were funny 100 years ago like he is slick. We don't accept agriculture jokes.

    Get on the Internet and update your repertoire Jansby Mac. :good

    Yes idiot so exact science doesn't apply. The only thing that is an exact science is a guy hitting the canvas and not rising for a ten count. Hell even THAT can be fudged! There have been numerous occasions long counts. Look at Cintron/Martinez. Look at the towel that came in during Cotto/Foreman. A lesser referee would have stopped it seeing that Foreman had no chance. He used his JUDGEMENT.

    The point is that saying show me rules/practices in boxing that equate to scientific laws is ignorant. To co-sign on an idiot making a statement such as that makes you even more of an idiot.

    Gets more stupid with every post...
    That is a form of literature, aphorism, not a joke...not something you can read on the funny page of the paper idiot.

    Catching a fish by the mouth...need explaining stupid?

    So you are saying that everything is based on judgement..objectivity...
    that is why I am saying with the top 2 boxer going at it and there is no clearcut way to determine drawing power..where objectivity comes in...why not accept 50-50?

    don't put head and slick together in your name because you are obviously stupid.

    Why not a 40 40 split with the winner getting the extra 20? Or winner takes all? Or a ppv poll stating who you would like your ppv money to go to?

    Sorry I'm getting back to you late on this, but I had to hit the gym...

    ...anyway, who cares about who out earns who? They are at the very least ON PAR with one another when it comes to ATG status (actually, 90% of people think Pacquiao is ahead, but I don't think anyone would place PBF ahead, hence me saying they are at the very least on par) This is a fight everyone wants to see, one that will lift them - and boxing itself to new heights! PBF earns more, but is it MILES more? Of course not! There is a reason why PBF earns a little more, and it has nothing to do with he does in the ring...

    ...now as far as the "something concerns him" thing...I'm not saying PBF is scared of Pac, but even Stevie Wonder could see that he has some reservations about fighting Pacquiao. Maybe he think he'll get robbed, I don't know, but he definitely sees something in Pacquiao's skillset that takes a hit on his confidence. If that wasn't the case, he wouldn't be making such outrageous demands! It's like Floyd is saying, "hell no! you gotta pay me more to fight that mutha ****a!'

    Are you back to that dumb crap? I addressed that like three posts ago. I easily understood it. It still doesn't make it funny, witty, or your point valid. Leave that crap with your village friends.

    Just because things are subjective does not mean that supporting facts are absent or that the conclusions drawn are without merit. Everything humans deal in is subjective being truly objective in any human endeavor is close to impossible.

    In this case the supporting data points that we have to go on are revenue (PPV and Gate), opponents, common opponents, and previous negotiations. FMJ wins in all cases.

    Could he get it? Sure. Do I care? No. Only a fool would make the argument that Pac deserves the same deal that he walked away from 6 months ago though he lost all of his bargaining power. Do Only a fool. Then again I am discussing this with you...

    40-40 and the remaining 20 raffled in multiple drawings to the MGM Grand ticket holders as cash prizes.
