Why does everyone all suddenly think Pacman is a HUGE draw???

[hammerhiem]

Does HBO actually see any ppv revenue from the UK?

They might but I doubt is will be a huge amount and Sky pay the fighters a cut serperately anyway.

the figures are crazy

$40,000,000 in revenue from 1,400,000 @$30 a unit or there abouts for sky.

I would imagine Sky are happy to pay at least 50% of that to the fighters given the advertising revenue it brings in on top of that.

Why are you guys arguing about the purse? Even 50/50 or 60-40 split... Pacquiao would still KO Hatton whether you like it or not...

Pacman Oscar done 1.25 Million PPV, was that worldwide

1.25 in the US alone,and i hear it was higher

Since you've posted this thread, where are all the people that have been arguing that Pacman get a higher percentage of the purse?? No where! Its all gone quiet over there!

WOW. How much exactly did Hatton get for the Mayweather fight.

If the numbers are right he got 9 million UK pound sterling which at the time of the exchange rate it would be around 17 million dollars just for UK PPV revenue. Not to mention the guarateed purse and some of the HBO PPV buys.

That irrelevant to what were talking about. If Hattons going to get beat (assuming he loses) he might as well gets paid ALOT because he's the bigger draw.

You can argue with Mr. Gacal Pacquioa's advicer not with these haters... 60-40 split or no fight.......

Also crowd numbers in the Arena would also favour Hatton as well.

Im sure if Pac was to hold a big fight in a huge arena in the Philippines,he'd have the same amount of people Ricky could if he fought in the UK

Pacman isn't KO'ing Hatton, the guy's a Super featherweight for christ sake.

Jesus you guys are really ****ing insane sometimes.

Collazo has spent most of his career at Light middle weight and couldn't put Hatton on the floor but you think a guy who fights at 130 can? STFU.

I read that Hatton made more from UK ppv revenue, than he actually did from his purse. Sky didnt anticipate that Hatton/Floyd would sell as well as it did.
