Hatton Won't Budge From 50-50 Deal For Pacquiao Fight

[playaballer1]

Hatton has had one PPV fight ever. And it was a KO loss. Manny Pacquiao has been a PPV mainstay for years now, and he dominated the majority of those fights. Are you for real with this bull****?

It doesn't really matter. Yea he got KO but still them brits will still support him. Hatton will bring more viewers than Manny believe it. + Hatton's the champ at 140 defending his title.. even he wins against Manny he's still wont be the #1p4p. 50/50 split is fair IMO.

[MANGLER]

I see where Pac is comin from, but good for Hatton to make a stand on this. I hope they split it even and do it up.

Do you honestly think that if Pac man fought Mayweather the money would accept a 60/40 in pac mans favour....I think not

50/50 is the way to go, Hatton is Champion at that weight with the IBO i think and brings the ring championship, P4P No1 carrys no belt and Pac man has no belts at that weight, when Hatton fought Mayweather it was for his Welterweight WBC belt, if Pac man had a light welter belt I could see the reason but he has nothing at 140, Hatton is unbeaten at that weight and is universally recognised as the best 140 fighter on the planet so to me Pac Man aint quite the P4P best just yet and is tied with Calzaghe (Pac man prob edges it if u forced me to choose) but if he wins at 140 then he is beyond a shadow of a doubt P4P best undisputed and to do that he needs to go through Hatton but as he has no belts then 50/50 is a fair amount or as someone else mentioned 40/40 and the winner takes the extra 20%

Pac Man could even take the US PPV buys and hatton takes the UK PPV splitting the rest down the middle.

Also who would you place at No1 pound for pound if Pac man lost? I'm a huge hatton fan but even I dont think he would go no 1, I would have it Calzaghe, Hatton, PacMan.....offt imagine that 2 British fighers sitting at no1 & no2 the comments from Americans lol it dont bear thinking about

Calzaghe being a number one? LOL don't think so.

If JMM beats Juan Diaz, he'll be number two on the spot, and if Pac loses, JMM will take P4P 1. Calzaghe is retiring he aint getting the number one spot, and I think a win from Hatton puts him in the 4-6 spots, not the 1-3 spots..

[Bhopreign]

I can see Pac saying 60-40 so Hatton wont accept because like Roach said a while back the smart thing to do is fight Floyd first because Hatton will always be there.

[Pullcounter]

pac is p4p #1 and is coming off a great win against dlh. hatton is the 140 champ and is coming off a decent win against malignaggi. also pac has a much better resume than hatton. in terms of legacy pac > hatton, thats why pac can ask for 60-40.

[Flawless.]

Hatton brings more money

[v.cassiusali@ya]

this is hatton's oppurtunity to prove his worth. 60-40 is just fair. there's no reason for hatton to asked for an even split. hatton will end up fighting lazcano again if he will not fight pacman.

[MOREBASS]

Fighters are lining up around the block to get a shot at Manny.


Just go back and scroll through the threads.


The leverage that Team Pacquiao is using is the stance that they could get a number of MegaFights, and that they will, if Team Hatton does not agree to terms.


They are absolutely right, IMO.


Not saying the split is fair, but really when is business ever ?

Lol was juts on the wind up a bit there as I do agree if Hatton beat Manny he would be mid table unless he lined up his next fight with Marquez although joking side if Joe dont retire you cant count him out hitting No1 if he picks the right fights for status rather than money
