Looks like Hatton- Paquiao is off

[JazMerkin]

I think Manny is being foolish here, because there is no way he will get more than 50-50 against Mayweather whose people will just not let that happen, as well as the fact it would not generate the money the UK PPV's do for Hatton. 52-48 is a pretty good deal, it really is starting to look like Pacquiao is avoidin Hatton.

In terms of future opponents, for Pacquiao, there is Mayweather, but I doubt he will get more than 50-50 against him even if it did post bigger numbers in the US, whilst Marquez III is another option and one where he could get a bigger piece of the pie, but I can't see this being as lucrative as Hatton.

Hatton can fight any 'name' and he will do good numbers. I think one fight he could go for is Cotto at a catchweight of 144 or something, if Cotto doesn't go straight to Margarito after demolishing Jennings. This could also be fairly big money wise, and would probably do close to 1,000,000 buys in the UK. My cousin was working at SkySports for the Malignaggi fight, and their internal estimate on the night of PPV buys in the UK was somewhere between 500,000 & 600,000, so think about the money that could be made against a more renowned name like Cotto. Plus if Hatton did it in a stadium he can make a bundle off ticket sales.

Still hope that Manny sees sense and makes the fight.

Cotto is a very good one Nice one

I dont think Cotto will want any part of Tony again, not after boxing so well to just be out muscled, it would only happen again and I think Tony would just step it up earlier but yeah a Cotto Hatton fight would also be massive, as long as Cotto gets his win

[Fenster]

According to Freddie Roach.. Pac will fight either Valero or Judah, both of which will earn him between $2-3m, should he refuse the Hatton deal.

Crazy.

[JT Rock]

Hope Valero sparks him out cold then....

Im glad everyone is seeing now what happens when your at the top, it becomes about the $$$$$$$ and angling to get as much as you can, when your in a position to do so.

Everyone slagged off Floyd calling him greedy and money hungry, but yet Pac wont split the pot with someone who has the bigger following

[JT Rock]

Though I think the real reason is, Pac knows Hatton is a beast and will relentlessly grind him down till the fight is stopped.. Hatton is like a scourge and a haunt, he just terrorizes his opponent in the ring and wont let up

[DatsiK]

My opinion of pac man has dropped a considerable amount after this.. not because I'm a Hatton fan boy, it's just his greediness, who would of thought someone as 'generous' as pac man would be arguing over such a large amount of money.. I heard Hatton even suggested 55-45 for pac man but he still didn't budge.

I guess he'll have to settle for his 3M fights then.

Fukk Pac. He can never claim that he always tried the fight the best. What a fraud. If that fag had any sense he knew that even 52% against Hatton would generate a lot more against Margez, Valero, Guzman etc. The fans Hatton brings to his fights, no one can compare too. Guess he really is dumb.

You're dumb ass!

Tell me why the basic premise has being set for Pacquiao / Margarito? Pacquiao is keen on watching Margrito / Mosley fight. Don't come up with some lame dumb as answer either.

Hatton's draw numbers are down against other fighters and no way he could even hope to generate the kind of money a Pacquiao / Hatton fight can. Even a rematch with Mayweather would come up way short. A place Hatton can make good money is in the UK with live tickets and it's gotta be with one of the alaphbets cause IBO ain't gonna get him anything. The only thing you write that make sence is about Hatton fans.

Marquez ain't going up to 140 to fight Hatton because he'd get his ass knocked out and knows it. It would tank his career again. I wouldn't even watch it and I'd only look at the highlights after the fight on youtube. Most people don't even know the fighter names you have listed not only that they are all in the lightweight and superfeather weight class, not the jr welterweight and welterweight class.

Hatton's draw numbers are down against other fighters ( DO WE KNOW THE NUMBERS AGAINST MALIGNAGGI?)

to an extent i agree, but to not take the fight with Hatton was stupid. who will get pacman hatton-kind-of-coin without added risk? margarito and pbf fights are much riskier.

What I'm saying is he can't say he decided to fight the best in this instance.

When did I bring the past up ?

Hatton is the best? There are many talented options out there for Pacquiao. As mentioned earlier: Margarito, Cotto, Campbell, Diaz, Marquez etc.

It is a bad decision not to fight Hatton because the Hatton fight is more financially lucrative. That said, Pacquiao isn't afraid of fighting the best or really anyone for that matter.

To me, Pac-Margarito is a mismatch. Maragrito is a big ass welterweight. Pac wont be able to make him flinch also. His pucnhes will have no effect. Margarito is bigger and stronger. How will Pac cope with that pressure from a guy his size ? Margarito crushes Pac.

You gonna whine at anything else ?

I agree, You're right about Margrito being a big welterweight and beating Pac, but it's not going to be one sided fight. Cotto already proved a more technical fighter can out box Margarito. But I'll tell you that if the fight happens, it will be at a catch weight of 145 and not at 147 making it harder for Margrito to make weight. My guess is Roach will try to keep the date tight as well. No whining here, I wanna see this fight happen as much as the Hatton fight and more than Mayweather. If Pacquiao can pull off a win, Both Hatton's and Mayweather's barganing power tanks.

You think PAC is going to fit the winner of Margarito/Mosely(Margarito). Talk about getting his ass kicked pillar to post.

agreed who has pacquiao fought? hatton fought kostya and floyd jr, and the castillo win was amazing.

he also fought prime fighters like collazo, urango and floyd jr.

how can pacman compare when he avoided the best in the divison like guzman, valero, humberto soto, and now hatton
