    Pacquiao is the bigger draw arguably; more stateside following coupled his mega-star status in the Phillipines. Hatton is semi-known in the States and is a household name in Britain. Outside of that he isn't that big...

    Hatton's terms? He can go whistle for it. He's the one desperate for the pac-man fight, while pac-man merely 'wants' it.

      Hatton is delusional.

        Because honestly who ever brings the most is in the A seat, everything else is judt background noise.

        Hatton has a massive and big spending following.
        its not all about money... if pbf got the lion's share against ricky you better believe pac will too.

          Ricky's probably being advised by Oscar.

            I think this is more to do with the venue than anything else, all Hatton has talked about since the Lazcano fight is a big fight at Wembley in 09. Arum says he wants the fight in Vegas and they won't fight in England.

              Hitman targets Pacman (sort of)!
              Ricky Hatton's lawyer Gareth Williams says Hatton is interested in a showdown with P4P king Manny Pacquiao, but only under the Hatton Camp's terms. "Every light welterweight in the world wants to fight Hatton," Williams told PA Sport. "We've had approaches from everybody. We've also had approaches from people at 130 pounds, Juan (Manuel) Marquez and Juan Diaz both want to fight him. He is a massive draw and can fight where he wants. We've also had approaches from Mayweather to have a rematch with him. He wants to fight Ricky. But the fight we want to make, our preference, is Manny Pacquiao because we think that is a great fight. Ricky has made no secret of the fact he wants to take on the best and Pacquiao is regarded as the best....but it has to be on our terms. We won't be bullied or forced into any decision that is not on our terms."
