Manny Pacquiao Reportedly Still Wants 60-40 For Hatton

[Dave Rado]

It seems like anyone who beats De La Hoya automatically gets a big head and thinks they are on De La Hoya's level as far as draw power is concerned.

That seems to be the problem.

Neither will be able to make as much as they will fighting each other unless its against Mayweather.

No but Hatton can get a huge payday against lots of other fighters because of his huge UK fanbase. He could even get a huge payday against Bradley. Manny can't get a huge payday against anyone but Hatton or Mayweather.

Really disappointing if true. I thought better of Manny then to be so greedy. He's already getting a better deal than Floyd got with a share of the UK PPV revenues, what the hell does that tell you?

So manny's going to be so big headed and stubborn now, to take a fight earning him less money defeating the object, robbing the sport and fans of a great fight, in defiance of most in the sport inc; his promoter whom agrees with a 50/50 split.

And how on earth is he going to agree a deal with Mayweather with this attitude?

[Dave Rado]

I don't know why people keep trying to pass this off of Manny and put it on his lawyers and advisors. Those people work for Manny not the other way around. So if Manny said **** what yall talking about 50/50 split is good guess what it wouldn't be **** the lawyers or advisors could do about it. The lawyers and advisors are EMPLOYEES of Manny not the BOSSES of Manny. So it is quite obvious that 60/40 is something Manny really wants.

Plus his advisers told him to accept the 50/50 and Manny said no in a text message.

And let biasness begin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dave Rado]

Manny has the right to get the bigger purse. No 60/40, no fight. That's right. Fight someone even less money as long as you have a higher share. Money can't buy pride. Who is the Pound for pound No. 1? Hatton is not even there. The question as to who brings more money is irrelevant as to who get the bigger share. Fair is fair the ring is square.

You obviously don't want the fight to happen.

[Dave Rado]

if Manny agrees with what Hatton wants, he's knocked out already even before the fight.

According to Arum, he already agreed, then reneged on his agreement. If he had said up front he would only fight for 60/40, that would be different. But unless Arum is lying, Manny agreed to something and then reneged, which stinks. And you can't blame his advisers because his advisers are now telling him to accept 50/50 and he said no in a text message, according to the report.

this is getting rediculous....1st manny says 60-40...then arum says its now 50-50...and now we're back to 60-40 all with no deal yet... man wtf.. I say winner should get what each wants out of the share damn it..

[TyrantT316]

I like Manny and he's considered #1 P4P in the world, however last time I checked, Hatton's lost only once and brings a crowd...

[BetterCallSaul]

I think Manny and Roach have seen something they don't like in Hatton. Rejecting a 50-50 makes no sense. Manny will be making more than Floyd did against Hatton.

Bring it on Pac fans, Pac is not a draw, he's big in the Phillipines. Outside from that he is an exciting fighter, that the casual fan doesn't know who he is. The people that come to see his fights and have good seats are people that Pac gave the tickets to. In the Phillipines they get to watch his fights for free. I like watching him fight, but I would never order his PPV fights. He got exposure from fighting Barrera, Morales, Marquez and DLH, with all this exposure he still isn't the draw. So, Pacman stop listening to those idiots around you and take the 50/50 split. No true boxing fan can deny that you are an exciting fighter, but you are not the draw. Like I said in the beginning, bring it on Pac fans........
