    Was Ricky Hatton wrong to expect a 50/50 to begin with? (Poll)

    Should the boxers purse be based on how rich their home country is, how many fans will buy PPV, how much they'll pay for their PPV tickets and how many fans can afford to travel and support their fighter?

    Or should the true indicators of the purse split always boil down to each fighters achievements to date and how skilled at boxing they are consensually regarded to be?

    Ricky was wrong, he doesn't deserve it based on skill.

    Purse split is whatever a fighter can negotiate. Obviously the threat of Hatton walking away proved his worth and that's what it comes down to. If you say "I get this or I'm gone" and the other guy agrees, that's what you're worth.
