55-45 Manny-Hatton

[Bobby Shaw]

This fight will end up being 55-45.Thats what Manny's team is aiming for.Manny is trying to make a statement that 'Hatton you are not on my level.I'm the bigger man here and you should feel priviledged that you are fighting me.'

Manny is smart.To Hatton's team,this will appear like Manny has compromised and they will feel like a win win situation.Whichever way you look at it,it will not be a 50-50 fight and it shouldnt be a 50-50 fight.Manny has achieved so much,he was willing to take risks.He is exciting to watch and deserves it.No disrespect to Hatton,he brings a lot of drunkards with him and make a good atmosphere but this now boils down to achievement.Manny has been consistantly fighting the best.Hatton on the other hand spend decades fighting bums in England.He only has 3 people on his resume.You cant fool people all the time,sooner or later this will catch up and I think its payback time.

[The Gunner]

In Mannys dreams. The Hattons are shrewd bastards, they wont take anything less than 50-50 here.

[Kbmunro]

"money manny" will look like he is ducking hatton if this fight does not get made!
shame,i like(ed) pac-man...but he is actin like a **** right now!!

[{}MATADOR{}]

This is about ego. There is no way Hatton will accept anything less than 50-50.

[Zaff101]

Fine, if Hatton doesn't accept this where else can he go? Mayweather again? He'll get wiped out. Oscar? I don't think so. Who else is there for him?

Ricky, accept the offer and take it. If not, it hurts YOU more than Manny. YOU are the challenger. Manny is the BIGGER draw. MORE people are coming to see HIM and not you.

[The Great Shark]

50-50 is how it should be. Greedy boxers and their egos, thats what we get for dedicating our time to this sport. Bastards.

[medium-deek]

MORE people are coming to see HIM and not you.

You clearly haven't been watching the attendance figures for Hatton's fight. How many pino's can even afford to travel to the USA to watch manny fight? Hatton brings thousands of fans, fans willing to spend money.

[hookoutofhell]

ricky should take the offer, who else is there for him? mayweather again? holt? torres? timothy bradley is the next big thing at 140 but even then he doesn't bring anything like what pacman does in erms of PPV etc.

pacman on the other hand is the champ, he can accept another fight with JMM and it would be a big seller stateside.

hitman has a chance to claim the p4p title yet again against the best fighter in the world. not many fighters get a second chance like this, whats more manny is a fighter i can see losing to hatton, if hatton prices himself out of the match up he will regret it.

[medium-deek]

.Manny has achieved so much,he was willing to take risks.

So, why doesn't he give JMM a re-match? Sorry, this is nonsense. Fighting Oscar, for example, cannot be classed as a risk. It was a nothing to lose fight for him. Lose and he was not expected to win as Oscar is too big etc. Win and the world is your Oyster. I agree, that Manny is P4P # 1, but this should be a 50/50 split fight, as Hatton brings the goods to the table as well.

[Espada]

If you ask me Hatton isn't deserving even deserving a shot against Pacman. Getting KNOCK THE F U C K out when he had the oppurtunity is something he never deserves right now.
