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

[fan johnny]

With out a doubt he deserves a bigger portion, but his promoter f....up! And his Lawyer is an idiot!

Such as it is... he gets what he gets.

I take it all back! His promoter is a smart ass businessman.... Just read Pacquiao get 50/50 including Englands PPV.

Exactly, I'm guessing these millions of Filipinos back home aren't bringing any PPV money to the table. They watch it for free no?

As it happens though I just can't decided whether Pac deserves the 60%. From a personal point of view I couldn't care less what the split is, I just want the fight made.

The thing is Arum said 50-50 is fair and so did Roach. That's both his trainer and promoter who agree Pac doesn't deserve the bigger split. Somebody somewhere is whispering into Pac's ear or trying to squeeze more money for themselves, I just hope they agree soon and get this fight made

Yes, and No.

Yes, there is a free telecast on national TV. That telecast is dragged on for almost a whole day affair. It is riddled of commercials/advertisements with impunity. Pretty much, the main fight is over and done with before it hits the small screen. This serves the bulk of his fans.

There too, is a pay for live transmission fed on movie theatres, for about $10. And then lastly, the regular PPV, carried by Solar sports (?) is about $20. Of course there are bars, and restaurants that would likewise get on with the thing for a small cover price.
