And how many hall of famers had Hopkins beaten before he beat Trinidad? None. Does that mean he wasn't a good fighter all those years he held the middleweight crown? It's not as if Hatton has just held an alphabet belt for over 5 years, he's been undisputed champion for that time. It's not his fault that Tszyu was the only hall of famer that was in his division.
Shocker: Hatton is Set To Walk Away From Pacquiao

and the high school-level student had the gall to say he's going to quit if he doesn't get the same salary because he can earn the same amount doing the same work in their family businessOriginally posted by KatzThe main issue here is not about the big $$$ but more on the respect department.
I will give you an example.
You're a bachelor degree holder and the other one is just a high school level education.
Would you allow that a high school level in your office will have the same salary as you?
Thats the point here.

Hatton can fight Marquez (we know Pac wont) at Wembley with 100,000 tickets sold easily. A million UK PPV buys and a large amount of US PPV.
Unless Pacquiao secures a fight with Mayweather, where can he match that?Comment

He robbed Collazo and barely won against Lazcano...and these guys are probably not even in the top 200 P4P...and he wants to treat Pacquiao the same way? The nerve!And how many hall of famers had Hopkins beaten before he beat Trinidad? None. Does that mean he wasn't a good fighter all those years he held the middleweight crown?

You cannot be serious with this analogy......Originally posted by KatzThe main issue here is not about the big $$$ but more on the respect department.

To make the story short, they are not on the same level to have an equal share.
Thats the point here.

In fact Pacman fought him twice. Your point?
Hatton can fight Marquez, but I think that fight would be dangerous as well.
"Timing beats power"
Yea Hatton can sell tickets, but as Kats mentioned about someone who has a possession of a BAC and a High School Diploma.. Who deserves the larger salary?
Pacman posses the Bachelors, while Hatton is still on his way up trying to graduate. If you can't see that then.... I don't know.
Even in the UK, Pacman should get the larger split.. Pacman is the name in boxing right now.Comment

David Beckham makes far more money than many footballers who are much more skilful than he is. Why? Because he brings paying fans to the table, because of his looks, his pop star wife and his glamorous lifestyle. How much money a sportsman makes has never ever been simply about how good they are at their sport. This idea that to pay a sportsman based on commercial considerations rather than purely on how good they are at their sport is somehow disrespectful is ******. It is simply how business works and will always work.Originally posted by KatzThe main issue here is not about the big $$$ but more on the respect department.

Even your specific analogy doesn't work. Many of the most successful businessmen have few or no qualifications. Many degree holders do crap in business.Last edited by Dave Rado; 01-21-2009, 03:24 AM.Comment

Hatton would ***** out of that fight just like he's trying to ***** out of the Pacquiao fight by not accepting Pacquiao's offer.
Beating Pacquiao would definitely have more weight than beating Marquez. While Pacquiao beating Floyd would have more weight that beating Hatton.

That's a great match-up.
Hatton should definitely go for Marquez or like i said before,Oscar, for a mega fight over there in England..
As for Pac, no need to worry about him.
He's the #1 p4p and there's always gonna be a big fight waiting for him.Comment
