Hatton and Pac camps agree to 50/50 split

[Taeth]

How does Pac no deserve the Lions share after what he did last year? He is p4p #1, he beat three guys in the three divisions.

Nothing personal against Ricky, he's a good fighter and a personable enough guy. But I'm rooting for Pac for two main reasons:

1. I was a fan BEFORE he humiliated ODLH. Now I'm an even bigger fan.

2. If Hatton, a natural at 140, were to beat Pacquiao, whose best weight is arguably 130, people's expectations of Hatton's ranking will go unrealistically through the roof.

Better for Pac to win and put these unrealistic expectations to bed.

Don't Bet on Hatton. Just enjoy the fight & the Action. But sorry to tell but Hatton will be like a Punching Bag until he gives up around rd 5.

BTW Pac deserves the Lion Share. The fight is in the US and Pac has the Top PPV numbers there for a Fighter 140 & Below. Not Hatton nor PBF nor DLH hold that title. Now Pac only fought one fight at 147 & more than 1,2M satisfied PPV buyers see that. They'll be buying again.

Hatton has only the PBF fight as his PPV in the US. That one sold 850K, but you have to Credit PBF who recently beat DLH for that. Besides hatton lost in that fight, I'm sure he lost some fans after that.

UK will be shelling PPV money for this fight not only because of Hatton but because Pac is on the other corner. How come Hatton vs Pauli, Collazo, Castillo wasn't in PPV in the US? It even doesn't hit a High Ratings on free HBO. If Pac were Matched with those guys I'm sure it will be PPV & it will sell at Least 200K to 400K(Pac-Castillo guaranteed 350K+).

If I were Pac, I will not take 50-50, I will just take a Break & Just make Movies with Stallone & wait for PBF or until Hatton give up the 10%. Pac hanging with Stallone is Guaranteed to add another 500K to his PPV.

First off not a chance in hell PAC/Castillo over two years ago would of been ppv Castillo Corrales wasnt even ppv.

I thought at first Pac deserved the 60/40 split but looking into 50/50 is fair, Hatton brings the ppv from Britian i agree that the numbers will be alot higher than usual as he is fighting Pac, but Pac could fight anyone else and they would bring nothing like what Hatton brings which if the mayweather fight is anything to go by where there was 1.2 million buys at $30.00, thats close to $40 million dollers!!!!! Hatton deserves 50/50 without a doubt.

I beg to disagree on the PPV issue, PAC/Castillo is a sure PPV. 2 years ago PAC fought Jorge Solis (Solis who??) on PPV. Jose Luis Castillo is way a bigger and known name compared to Jorge Solis...
.

Sorry i agree looking into it would have been ppv maybe doign 200k buys, but like i say Hatton is bringing nearly $40 million dollers from the uk ppv alone, sorry but that deserves 50/50 imo.

Hang on.. so if pac wins it would be ok to rank him a top p4p fighter still.. but if hatton won it wouldn't be ok to call him top p4p

This pac man fan boy shit has got to stop, judging by alot of comments it's like a win/win situation for pac man.. if he loses he's still p4p #1?

Some of the shit I read on here is unbelievable.. people would give pac credit for beating hatton but wouldn't give hatton the credit for a win purely because he's naturally bigger?

We might aswell disregard Mayweathers win over hatton.. since he was naturally a bigger man.

Reasoning (or lack thereof) like yours is the reason I'm rooting for Pac to win.

It's ok to want pac to win.. but what you said was plain old stupid. Hattons expecations would go unrealistically through the roof? Lol.. isn't that exactly what has happened with pac man after beating a washed up DLH... I guess it's double standards when it comes to manny right?

come on dude.. wake up. If Ricky were to beat Pac Man he'd deserve all the credit he would get, and more..

Pacquaio, who began his career at 105, jumped several divisions from his natural fighting weight of 130 to beat DLH at 147. To fight Hatton, he'd still be over his natural weight, at 140. How does that translate into putting Hatton anywhere near the top p4p for beating Pac? It doesn't.
