Poll: Does Pacquiao Deserve a 60% Share Against Hatton?

[XaduBoxer]

I can't see any reason to justify Pac claiming 60%

He's not the one with the title.
I don't believe he's the bigger draw.
He's actually more accustomed to fighting in the U.S. than Hatton.


If Pac wants 60% he should put on a championship stake, the winner walks away with 60% the loser 40%

In the US Pac is the bigger draw. And there fighting in the US

I was thinking of the PPV.

Hatton does big PPV figures

I think (and agrees with someone) that PAC draws bigger PPV buys IN THE US than Hatton does...

In the U.S. They're fighting for the world title.

Even Bob Arum is saying Pac doesn't deserve a 60% cut

"There's no way he's getting the 60-40," Arum said. "Unless he comes to his senses and his people start acting intelligently ... we'll see if we can keep it together, but the split is supposed to be 50-50. We've all agreed to it. Now, people are whispering in Pacquiao's ear. If they keep pushing for 60-40, Hatton and [his promoter Richard] Schaefer are pulling the plug."

Arum said Hatton and Schaefer would "be in the right" for pulling out of a 140-pound showdown

50 -50 is the only way and Hattons Lawyer is threatening to sue if Pacs people drag there feet on this
Ricky Hatton threatens Manny Pacquiao with legal action - Telegraph

I don't think for a second that the fighters are at fault here ...more a case of the people handling them keeping their superior marketing status in tact and being able to lay claim to being "The top earner"
Greed is playing a factor in this too.

Pac deserves 90% because hatton bores me to death.

Blah blah blah blah blah.....

Make this fight happen already!

Maybe it can be viewed that a 50/50 split is a bit proud of a claim from the Hatton camp. Flexibility is the order of the day, but definitely it seems, only the Pacquiao's camp is willing to do so at this point in time. A noteworthy concession coming from the Pound for Pound King! wouldn't you say?

Write ups that can somehow give a third party perspective to this.

tell you what would make this simple, winner gets 60%, 40% to the looser...

[fan johnny]

Maybe Arum should get off his ass and get a counter offer 55/45. Else let Hatton have 60/40 UK PPV and Pacquiao 60/40 US PPV or go 100% UK Hatton and 100% US Pacquiao.

I think there is more negotiating left here, so I'm getting off this roller coaster cause I just want to see the fight.

Do you know why Mike Marley of boxingconfidential, has a serious problem with the British? How and when did that start?

It would be nice for you to let everybody know as to why. It will make his views biased if so! Then I wouldn't wanna read up on him if that is the case.

Calling the guy the female reproductive tract, is not convincing enough as an exhibit A! Please feel free to reinforce you claim with facts! Likewise a cleaned up argument, is a lot clearer to understand. Be advised, that keeping this post as wholesome as possible, is within you!

So you agree with 60% for Pacquiao

Pac deserves 90% because hatton bores me to death.

May I bid ?!?
Pacquiao: 91%

[brucelee]

52%-48% in favor of Pac is fair although the difference in amount would be immaterial.

52% means respect for Pacquaio. 50/50 is unacceptable. That 2% difference is for pride which Pacquaio deserves. Hatton should know that coz he himself prided with the fact that Pac wants him despite the offers Pac is getting.
