DelaHoya-Pacquiao Split Negotiations and Purse Talk!

[Lance Uppercut]

Basing on recent news information from various sources, I think negotiations for the Hoya-Pacquiao fight is bound to fail due to the following reasons:

1. Hoya pushes for a 70-30 (in Hoya's favor) split on everything that is not acceptable to Team Pacquiao

2. Hoya won't give the Philippines TV rights to Pacquiao

3. Hoya wants Pacquiao to wear 10 oz. gloves for the fight

4. Hoya realized that boxing fans didn't like the smaller Pacquiao as his opponent for his very last fight.

As for Manny Pacquiao, he will probably sit out for the rest of the year and will probably be back May or June next year.

I had to neg rep you. They are still negotiating; the title of your thread is misleading.

I love how you capitalize PAC everytime. It's like the sheer enjoyment of seeing the guy's name just makes you want to scream it. PAC.

Anyways, this isn't true but I wish it was. There is no reason for this to happen.

Accuracy seems to be on a milk carton with this one....I certainly hope this fight does not get made and IMO it is almost comical when you think about this becoming a reality.I do not and can not deny DelaHoya's accomplishments and his due respect through career But I would very much like to see DLH JUST GET HIS FAIR WELL OVER WITH and exit stage left.If anything and maybe by default,his realistic "opponent" should be Margarito.Mayweathers top two title threats engaged in a sensational battle with Margarito emerging victorious.... Mayweather opted out of Rematch with Delahoya in a fight that frankly did not light fires of anticipation.

Manny should by no means sit out for that long.He is within his fiery peak right now and could generate good numbers on his own along side Hatton,should Ricky get passed Paulina,or a unification with Campbell etc.etc.A division unification........what a concept!!There is hype and then there is hysteria.

pac will happen guys. I have no doubt about it. 70-30 is good already. If the fight makes $100M.. That's $30M already for Pac. I think Pac will agree with 65-35.

I think Bob Arum has made it pretty clear:

Pac will fight De La Hoya in December. If those negotiations fall through which is unlikely at this point

Pac will fight Humberto Soto in November.

The headline of the tread originally stated that the "fight was off." When you click on the thread, and read it, it became apparent that the title of the thread was completely false, and that it was just about one poster's opinion on the possibility of the fight. (the title of the thread has since been changed)

There are plenty of boxing forums where you can go to read false rumors, I always take pride in that Saddo is not one of them.
