    You have nothing to bet! If it's an easy KO for Pac, money shouldn't be a problem since after he "KO's" (wont happen) Ricky he will be worth more.

    Hatton is the one bringing the lions share of the revenue so a 50/50 is more then fair and if anything Hatton should be getting the bigger cut. Pac needs to wake up, beating a washed up DLH doesn't make him DLH because he cant draw like DLH or Hatton.

    If Pac doesn't budge on his demand for a 60/40 split he is flat out ducking Ricky, plain and simple!

      I cannot abide greed from any fighter, even Pacquiao, but this is definitely Hatton's loss.

      I love Hatton due to the huge amount of charity work that he does, but he has definitely f**ked up here and I cannot defend him on this one.

      This could signal the end of his career as he will now be labelled a "ducker" who dodges the great fighters.

        Hatton for sure would attract substabtially PPVs in UK, but in US, Asia (not just Philippines), Middle East (millions of Asian contract workers) Pacqiuoa will attract those PPVs. How much PPVs were there when Hatton fought Malignagi? -that's right nowhere compared to the Mayweather fight just like nowhere compared to a Pacqiuoa fight! Pacman deserves 60-40.

          If Pac is such a huge draw why has Hatton made close to 50 million more then Pac in his career?

          Pac is lucky that Ricky even offered 50% because he's the Champion and the bigger draw. Pac is acting yellow!

            I'm positive this is all a bluff. If the fact doesnt go down as planned in May, I will do something drastic.

              Mayweather would never move down to 140 to fight a man he already beat. That defies logic.

                He isn't ducking and no-one but you will label him a ducker. A 50/50 deal was agreed, and then reneged on. Hatton understandably feels he's being messed around and won't budge on the agreement, especially as he'd already conceded quite a lot, giving up the venue he wanted and the 100% share of the UK PPV that he'd had against Mayweather. The real issue is that if Manny wasn't prepared to accept 50/50 he shouldn't have let Arum agree to that deal. Agreeing a deal and then reneging on it stinks.

                  Manny's fights are free to air in the Philippines, according to all the reports I've read. Filipino contract workers in the Middle East are dirt poor.

                    Pacquiao is one greedy little bastard. I would of never thought. Guess the "good guy" **** he portrayed was just a bluff. If he doesn't back down from his 60/40 bull**** I say he is scared of Hatton, because he knows Hatton will not settle for that nonsense so he will be able to get out of the fight.

                      He definitely is not scared of Hatton, he's just allowed his ego to run away with him. It's terrible for boxing though.
