Manny Pacquiao Will Not Accept 50-50 Split For Hatton Fight

[wmute]

Not in America my friend, Europe of course he is, but not in America.

and who would be a bigger draw in us?

Not in America my friend, Europe of course he is, but not in America.

And your point is?

He could sell out between 60,000 - 100,000 against anyone and do 1m PPV buys.

He's the second biggest draw in the WORLD.

and who would be a bigger draw in us?

i'd say its fairly even with a slight nod to pacquiao...probably 60% to 40%

[Dave Rado]

[David] Diaz wouldn't be top 10 @ LWW

And he's only ranked #5 at Lightweight.

Ricky hits a damn site harder than JMM make no mistake about it.

But JMM hits more accurately and times his punches superbly - sheer power isn't everything - look at Pavlik-Hopkins. IMO JMM is probably the equal best counter-puncher in the game at the moment, along with Hopkins.

If Ricky fights like he did against Mayweather I think he would get knocked out by Pacquiao - but with Mayweather Snr in his corner I think he'll fight much more intelligently this time, and if so, I think it probably will go the distance.

People here missing the most important point. The casinos are paying so much for this fight because of the amount of fans Hatton brings over to spend money in them.

Its because both of these fighters, not one, have proven that they can both put people in those seats.


If what you're saying was true, then why weren't the Hatton-Malignaggi tickets such a hot commodity ?

And your point is?

He could sell out between 60,000 - 100,000 against anyone and do 1m PPV buys.

He's the second biggest draw in the WORLD.

In the UK. You keep failing to mention that point.


Ricky has never sold 1 Million PPV's here in the US. His mega fight with Floyd did 850K, here in the US, where it counts.


Obviously, Ricky is going to have a farewell fight in the UK that is going to do great financially.

But who can he fight besides Pacquiao, here in the US that is going to make even a remotely big splash ?

i'd say its fairly even with a slight nod to pacquiao...probably 60% to 40%

So if he brinf 600k PPV and Ricky Brings 400K, Pacman bring 3K fans and Ricky Brings 15k fans and ricky does 2000k PPV in the UK, whos's the bigger draw again?

Remember this is 2-4am UK time and 10,000 miles away from Manchester.

exactly...not dis*****g a the power advantage that hatton has over a JMM, but marquez's skillset is on another level....


he can fight going backwards and lay perfect counter traps...two traits that ive yet to see from hatton....two traits that would be critical if he is to have a chance

Where is counts? Money is Money.

If we get 1 milllion sales in the US (Doubtful, Pacman is nothing like the draw PBF was in his pomp)

£15 is $22x 2,000,000 = $44,000,000
$25x 1,000,000 =$25,000,000

Looks like you need to resit your maths papers my friend.

Do you honestly think Pacman has the strength to push Hatton backwards?

Pacquiao is!!!!!!!!
