      He can get big paydays, fighting on his home court, against all kinds of fighters.
      There is no reason Hatton should give in to a 40-60 split, especially when hes the defending champion who brings in most of the money. I wouldnt do it if I were him, either.
      And this is coming from a guy who loves Pacman.
      All I am saying is that Hatton's got the Pacman fight in the bag, all he has to do is say yes. He will never get the chance again, specially now that Pacquiao is thinking of retiring after three more fights.

          Why should Pacman get paid more when Hatton brings way more money?

            And this is where the whole things gets pretty ******, IMHO. This is a mega fight, there is tons of money. Both guys are huge draws for different reasons, if you want to make the big fight make. Neither guy has leverage over the other, and if anyone does its Hatton.
            Of course people will be tuning in for Pacquio,thats what makes it such a huge draw just like the Mayweather fight was such a huge sell.There are a lot of people who wouldnt buy that fight if Hatton was fighting Lazcano or another no name bum like the 30 others on Hatton's resume

              Yeah, I'm sure he is not, but if this fight doesn't push through, it will be said that Pacquiao gave Hatton an opportunity to fight him and team Hatton extracated Hatton from a sure beatdown by *****ing out on mere technicality.

                So are you saying that this a case of Hatton giving Pacquiao a shot a millions by giving him an opportunity to fight him, and not the otherway around?

                  The fight was agreed to at 50/50 (Arum and Roach concurred) then Pac got scared and priced himself out. It's time to move on.

                  Pac should fight all those other guys and get what he deserves financially from them. He should start with Margarito.

                      Think about this from Hatton's point of view. He doesnt need Manny, he shouldnt have to chase him or settle for the bad end of the deal. Hatton can spend the next couple of years fighting on his home court at his natural weight class against all of the legit contenders. He would make tons of money, and wouldnt really lose any honor in that.
                      This isnt some once in a lifetime thing for Hatton, he has been there and done that. Both guys need eachother for the megafight. Pacquiao isnt holding the leverage here, as his more fanatical fans would seem to believe.
                      Again, I am a big fan of Pacquiao.
