Ricky Hatton's Lawyer Threatens To Sue Manny Pacquiao

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

As bad as it hurts the English people on here, no one in the US gives a **** about Hatton, and the US is where the money is, so quit crying.

Exactly. The only way Hatton packs a US arena is to fill it with British imports.

The only way Hatton gets a US pay-per-view is to fight an existing US pay-per-view fighter.

You are admitting that you don't understand how boxing revenues flow through.

"sureity"? Um, yeah.

Yes, I DO know better than you. By a wide margin. The issue isn't whether Arum knows a good deal, or is telling you the truth. In fact, the only certainty is that if Arum's lips are moving, he is lying.

If Hatton thinks that he deserves 50/50, then let him go find ANYONE else to fight to make remotely the amount of money he would vs. Pac. I guarantee you that there is no shortage of PPV opponents/candidates for Manny.

same goes for hatton dios. whether u admit it or not...

theres a lot of ppv fighters that would love to get a shot to hatton...

u dont need to be only in the usa to make BIG MONEY.

thats why joe and hatton make their carreers there... less risk tons of money

I think that Manny's handler's will blow this fight.

Hatton is a phenomina when it comes to fans.

Its not just the PPV (which does incredible figures in UK) ..

..its the money that the 30,000 brits will bring in room bookings, ******** and especially drinking that the MGM etc will be counting the cost of if Hatton pulls out.

Pinoys dont have a pot to piss in and they certainly dont pay for PPV.. let alone travel to Vegas !!!

But they can NOT get "mega-paydays" in the UK.

Name ONE "mega-payday" that a fighter has had over there. ONE.

According to Ricky Hatton's legal counsel, Gareth Williams, they have a binding verbal contract to fight Manny Pacquiao on May 2 with an agreed upon 50-50 split. Two days ago, Pacquiao's lawyer, Franklin Gacal, told reporters that Manny will not accept an equal split of the money. He said Pacquiao is looking for a 60-40 split. Hatton refuses to fight Pacquiao for anything less than a 50-50 split. [details]

I'm trying to figure out since when does a verbal agreement hold up in court?
I know it doesnt at least here in the states b ecause that would be hearsay...
Please someone correct me if i'm wrong....

And as for the fight, I would like it to happen, but if it doesnt, he should fight a big name fighter between 135/140 imo, JMM comes to mind but he's fighting Diaz, Campbell comes to mind but he's fighting Funeka....Holt but he's fighting Bradley, damn......
