    You don't look at ppv as the be all end all, you look at how much revenue came in from both fighters period.
    That's what, in the end matters, and historically Hatton brings in more.

    It's not like people from the uk aren't going to show up in vegas, or not buy the ppv.

    That's the point I am trying to make. Look at the total historical revenue of both fighters.
    Hatton wins it, but Manny is getting better.
    Honestly Pacquaio has been making 2-8 Million a fight for a while now.
    And Hatton has been doing the same.

    I just believe that Pacquaio is a establish star over here in america with 8 p.p.v's doing better than any other fighter not name floyd or oscar.
    and he being #1 in the sport.
    Deserves him getting lionshare in this fight.

    Pacquaio has a fanbase his P.P.V history proves it.
    And Pacquaio is the hottest thing in boxing right now, not hatton.

      And honestly, I don't know how much juice Pac got from the mainstream American fans for beating DLH.

      That part is definitely unknown.

        Hatton V PBF did 1.25 in the UK ALONE

        More people will buy Pac V Hatton there as it's more competitive a fight.

        throw in say 500,000 buys in the U.S which is a real possibility and you will be looking at say 2 million buys, put the thing on in wembely and sell tickets at 40 quid a pop and you are looking at 3.6 million pounds in tickets alone,
        It only matters if Hatton would be getting a share of the US PPVs.

          You have made valid points. and Honestly if I didnt care so much about the prestige of the P4P status. And history of work.
          I would probably be on your side.

          But I have read all sides of this. And I just agree with the Pacquaio Side.

          Pacquaio Honestly is the biggest name in the sport right now.
          Hatton is not.

          Hatton has the biggest fanbase.
          but he doesnt bring in the biggest P.P.V audience.
          and he is not #1 in all of boxing
          pacquaio is

            People here have been following this for many days yet they cant still get it. Money is not the issue for Pacquiao anymore thats it! He just wants a 60-40 written in the contract he doesnt care if its $2M or $20M. Thats how respect is earned and if Ricky cant give it to him he's better off fighting for peanuts as well. Let him have his UK PPV sales with er... ugh...

              So Horus...by your logic. Mayweather should have gotten the bigger cut against DLH?

                No... De la Hoya is the exception to the rule. I admitted that.
                But Hatton is not the exception to the rule...
                since he took a 70-30 split with mayweather.

                  He made almost 40 million. Are you telling me Mayweather made over 80 million on that fight?
                  It couldn't have been 70/30 based on the earnings of these guys.

                  and if the original purse didn't include the uk revenues, that's not the case here.
                  this purse is based on all revenue period.

                    You keep repeating **** you read on a Pacquiao fan forum, you've got no link to a reliable source

                      Im on my ps3 right now...playing madden so this will be my last response for at least a hour.

                      Let's use Common Sense.
                      If Hatton made 40 Million when he was guaranteed only 6 Million than he
                      must of Made 34 Million off of UK p.p.v buys..

                      But their is one problem. The sky sports only made 37 million for the Hatton mayweather fight.

                      So you are telling me that Hatton took 34 of 37 million dollars from sky sports???


                      Because I am pretty sure Hatton didnt get any U.S p.p.v money if Floyd didnt get any Uk p.p.v money...
