Hatton Brings More Money Than Pacquiao, Says Schaefer

[FasTHarD]

all PPV fights here in America are free in the Philippines for crying out loud, what $$$ is there to generate over in the PI? I don't think alot of people know that...

I'm with ******...

[Pinuno]

but its still free for everyone that has cable, I have poor relatives watching it on sundays there..

Fool. even if you have a cable, you'll be watching it with commercials. that's free and it's delayed telecast. The actual fight was completed by 12 noon. but the telecast would be just starting or at most will start at 2pm. Your poor relatives would be watching the fully loaded commercial delayed telecast.

Just like in the U.S., if you want it free, watch the replays.

It you want good quality, then you have to pay premium. There are many people here who pay premium but it is either PAC earns from it and/or PAC giving it gratis. Do you understand?

You have a habit of looking down on people that you are the only rich that can afford to pay. Typical of fools who pretends being aristocratic.

I think this fight will make more money in the UK than it will for the fight between Hatton-Mayweather. This fight has potential to easy do over a million ppv buys in the UK. and it at £15 a pop will make a fortune.

[DanMan_UK]

Pacquiao will get 50-50 sharing in THE UK PPV.

50-50 in the US also.

Manny should get 60-40 in the US though.

Shut ur face

Dude, the Mayweather-Hatton fight did 1.4 million in the U.K. That was more than the De La Hoya-Pacquaio fight did worldwide. I think Hatton-Pacquaio will generate a lot (maybe 1 million in the U.K.) but it won't be bigger than Mayweather/Hatton, neither in the U.S. or the U.K.

[big_james10]

Arum is conning Pacquaio about the numbers in Mayweather-Hatton. Hatton may have received all the television revenue from the U.K., but Mayweather's guaranteed purse was $43 million. No way Pacquaio will make that much money against Hatton. Mayweather-De La Hoya did 2.2 million worldwide. De La Hoya-Pacquaio did 1.2 million. Pacquaio is not as big of a star as he seems to think and his people are telling him he is. Schafer is right. Hatton brings probably three to four times as much money to the table as Pacquaio. If anyone should get a 60-40 split, it should be Hatton (and I am no fan of Hatton. Just being realistic)

but how many briton will be interested to watch a hatton fight if he's going to fight another fighter not pacman, will it generate the same big amount of "MANNY"??

You missunderstand hatton fans, 55,000 paid £100 each to watch him fight Lazcano coming off a loss.

if hatton fought Kotelnik for the WBA he would probably take 750k PPV in the uk and sell out the City of manchester stadium again at 55,000. kotelnik has no fight booked at present.

If he then unified against bradley he could sell out wembley at 76,000 and maybe hit 1,000,000 PPV that he fell slightly short of against Malinaggi because it was at US time. HBO might not put either on PPV stateside but they would pay for rights.

Hatton would proabaly get 70/30 on both those fights.

Legacy wise thats 2 No1 contenders in three fights and a unified and linear 140 to add to his ring belt.

Hardly a **** 12 months wouldn't you say.

Richard Schaefer is just ****ting Manny coz his boss Osci got his ASS Wh**pe. How much PPV buys did Hatton vs. Malinaggi Punchugging Bout? Does it worth the watch? Manny deserves the bigger slice of the pie coz Manny is known to majority of Boxing fans unlike Hatton who is only known in Britain.

Considering that 1.4 million strong in the U.K alone bought Hatton against the last P4P #1 fighter, which more than doubled the previous record of Tyson vs Lewis. I'm backing Hatton on this one.

I sincerely doubt this fight does more than 500k in the U.S. I can assure you that the vast majority of revenue generated from this fight will be from the U.K.

[badboypeenoy]

This is nothing more than racism. Anglo-ass Hatton simply doesn't want to accept the reality that a small brown asian guy from a third-world country deserves more money than his puffy white ass.
