This is something that really bugs me about a lot of sports stars. They demand this and that when it's the fans who ultimately pay their wages. Pacquiao is a great fighter and obviously deserves his fair share, but if his ego is starting to become too big I wouldn't mind seeing Hatton put on the performance of his life and tear that cheque of Pacquiao's up, fold it neatly, and shove it up Pacquiao's bottom.
If two fighters are going to get an obscene amount of money, it hardly makes much of a difference if one guy gets 40% or 60% or whatever it may be. It's just an ego thing when fighters ask for more like that. To be honest, I see it as a bit childish.
hatton is more than free to rematch paulie malignaggi or luis collazoI'm sure JMM would be more than happy to fight for the 50/50 pacman is turning down.
I'm sure all conserned at GBP would be quite happy leave the greedy f*cker out in the cold for 6 months to consider his position.
people need to come back to reality....when you challenge some 1 for their belts..ring belt at that..no way in hell do you get more..when in history has that happened
yeah, because we all know Javier Castillejo made more than Oscar De La Hoya when they fought :alucard:
DLH was the bigger draw when he fought Mayweather and Pacman, so he got the bigger payday. I believe Hatton is the bigger draw in this one, so he should get the lion's share if it's not 50-50.
hatton deserves the bigger purse..their fighting for his belts..give the champ his respect
Respect? OH please... if he wants respect and get a bigger purse, then he should go find a fighter with less credit to bring to the bargaining table, so he'd get his 50/50 split or maybe even 70/30 split lol.
