    Hatton sold out MGM Grand and a cool million PPV Vs malinaggi.

    Looks like you're 0 for 2 on facts Pull.

      How do you figure that?

      Hatton sold 1.5 million in the UK alone for the Mayweather fight, added to the 850k in the US thats more than Pac has sold in his entire career IN ONE FIGHT.

          I just want to throw this in. Aside from the millions of dollars Pacman gets for the rights to telecast his fights there, did anybody knew that about 50 to more than a hundred movie houses there charge 10 to 13 dollars a head for his fights and they're always sold out? Movie theaters in the Philippines are huge, capacity is about 1500 or more, aside from the bars/restaurants who charges the same thing to watch Pacquiao fight in real time.

          Pacman deserve to get 60, but a 50/50 split is fair and reasonable. I really think that this is just posturing for Pacman, or from some bozo who's buzzing Pacman's ears, trying to protect his "perceived " image as boxing's # 1 P4P, for his future fight/fights, specially if Mayweather comes back.

          I still think this fight gets made, the small hitches are just the appetizers to keep us fans talking about this fight ...

              I don't blame them, they don't know how a 3rd world country operates, it always happen under the table or all revenues are undervalued. The BIR (Bureau of Internal Revenue) is all bark with no bite, not unlike the IRS (USA) were you can kill somebody and get away with it, but if you decide to welch on your tax payment, you're dead meat...
