Nice one Arum/Pacman

So you had the chance to make one of the biggest boxing fights of this decade and have potentially ****ed it for 10% of the purse. You'll be making alot less fighting someone else then you would 60-40 with Hatton.

I just can't understand, i don't think Pacs at fault here, i love the guy and he really doesn't seem the type to demand 10%. The thing is, who is Pac gonna face that would make him half of what Hatton would? Mayweather will go for Hatton and if it's at 140 that fight will be massive, bigger then Hatton - Pac for sure.

Somehow I don't think it's Pac either. He seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't be overly fussed with the financial side of things. But his camp is certainly ruining things, this is a potential mega-fight that could be FOTY, and greed is robbing the fans of it. This is what has become of our once glorious sport.

i see ricky as being more to blame i mean he has a chance at the p4p chmp again, how many fighters get that sort of opportunity?

yet he seems to be haggling over peanuts compared to what he will get. if the fight isn't made then i see hitman regretting it for a very long time.

he's not haggling anything, the deal was agreed at 50-50. Its a matter of principal, and i fully respect that. A man who goes back on his word doesn't get my respect.

[M.I Truth ?]

Arum was fine with 50/50. Pac is a great guy but he may have people around him telling what he should get.
