Comments Thread For: Hatton Says Mayweather-Pacquiao Situation is Pathetic

[junior gong]

Dude, Mayweather/Pacquiao in 2010 was probably the biggest fight of the past 30 years. At its peak it wasn't even close to the biggest fight ever. Now? It's another mega fight. An exceptional mega fight, but just a mega fight. Not even remotely in the conversation for biggest fight ever.

In what way would it have any case? It's not going to draw the most interest. It's not the most important. Greater fighters have fought. In what way does Mayweather/Pacquiao have an argument for greatest fight ever?

It could be the biggest fight in history but that will depend on what actually happens in the ring when/if they actually fight each other. This is the intangible factor that will determine how big/great this fight is in regards to its place in history. Financially, no question its the biggest, but as a fight, a contest? We'll have to wait and see.

Bottom line Floyd is a coward people shouldn't buy his boring crappy fights

pacquiao is a broke coward. he's boring based on his cherry picked staged PPV scams that can't sell.you can buy that crap all you want.

He said biggest fight in history.

In terms of how much money is involved of course it is

Leonard vs Hearns for example had 300 million worldwide audience
Not sure how much PAC vs Floyd would be . Depends on whether it's ppv in china or not.

The only reason it will have the biggest money is because of inflation. Take the money fights in the past made and account for inflation and they'd likely blow Mayweather/Pacquiao out of the water. They sure as hell had more people watching than Mayweather/Pacquiao would.

Fighters in past made equivalent of 100 mil in a huge fight?

No.

The reason is because ppv money is involved.......

BOTTOMLINE: What have you done for me lately, Floyd just had the 2 biggest selling PPV's and Manny did poorly he only sold 1/3rd, Both negotiators have this info, But BOB is trying to get 50/50 and A-side which is clearly bogus, but a pac-person thinks its fair and it clearly isnt. Another fighter in which they both fought picks FLOYD to WIN SSM, JMM, RICKY HATTON HAVE ALL SAID FLOYD WILL WIN. People complained that Pac shouldnt accept the bogus offer he got from floyd, but expect Floyd to accept a bogus offer from Arum. You cant make this stuff up. The same bs you dont want Pac to accept you want Floyd to accept. Now your personal bias is right in your face and you cant accept the truth. Pac does not have the leverage he had 5yrs ago

Boxing is going to look like a joke if this fight doesn't happen. Time will fade but this isn't Leonard-Pryor or Morales-Marquez

This is mu'fckin "TBE" vs 8-division champion!!

It already does! The fact this fight hasn't gotten made yet is a Black eye for the sport and embarrassing!

Manchester legend Ricky Hatton, now a full fledged promoter, is one of the few common opponents of both Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao. He was stopped by Mayweather in ten rounds in 2007, which was Hatton's first career defeat. Two years later he was knocked out cold in two rounds by Pacquiao.

Back then, the biggest fight in the sport was Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. Nothing has changed over the years. Fans are still demanding the fight, but the two sides don't appear to be any closer to reaching an agreement.

Floyd Mayweather is a gifted athlete but he is disgrace to boxing. Him avoiding this fight is down right ridiculous. Floyd's silence says it all.

explain which part do you disagree with. Manny selling only a 1/3rd of what floyd sells in ppv's,
Arum trying to negotiate with his fighter being a-side,
or all of their common opponents picking floyd?
EXPLAIN? WHICH PART IS NOT TRUE?
