    His manager is his dad...

    Anyway the numbers don't add up. 900,000 PPV buys at 15 pounds a go equals around $30 million US in total revenues. Ricky's guarantee was $10 million. He may end up making another ten mil on top of that. $40 mil is way out of line.

      This isnt credible at all (The sun) they like to exaggerate everything. we are a country of 60million people, The number of people who has SKY subscription isnt more than 5 million people, The number of people who are willing to pay 15 pounds wouldnt be more than 500,000 people the most...We are just not a PPV country...Only Naz and lewis was able to get people to buy the PPV in those days.

        I believe the number of PPV buys, the hype for the fight was incredible, and just about everyone I know bought the fight. Including my dad, he set his alarm!

        What is exaggerated is the $40 million number, there's no way Hatton makes that much.

                Once again, why should u care how much a fighter makes. I dont care if they make 300 million. It effects my life in no way.

                  the managers (in this case, his pops) aren't the ones getting punched in the face and ribs.

                  fighters deserve the money but they usually get used and abused.
