Looks like Hatton- Paquiao is off

[fan johnny]

How is Hatton messing out... You do realize hatton has been the kingpin of 140 for almost 4 years now right?

I would also venture to say Hatton has more career earning than Pac up to this point[/quote]


My bad, typo (missing out). It's all about the money..... There is no draw out there for Hatton, like Hatton/Pacquiao....He is missing out on $4 to $6 million more than any other match up and possibly as much as $10 Million. except... GBP and TOP Rank are the guys doing the nego. Pacquiao didn't quite get that he is making the lions share by taking half of the UK PPV's when Hatton didn't have to agree. Top Rank was betting on a hugue PPV UK draw. On Pacquiao's side, and you can't really blame him by defeating ODH and beacuse of his own appeal makes him the top draw in Boxing no matter who he is fighting. He just wants that recognition. What the promoters should have done was shut up about the UK money and rewrite the split 60/40 Hatton UK PPV and 60/40 US PPV buys for Pacquiao with a slight guaranteed purse going to Pacquiao. Since Hatton's crew believes UK PPV are the bigger draw they should have had a problem.

I would venture to say that Hatton would be responsible for 95% of the UK PPV buys and at least 50% of the US PPV buys.

Pacquiao is either delusional or affraid.

Rank was betting on a hugue PPV UK draw.

I dont get that at all.

no one who doesnt already watch boxing would have seen Oscar against pac.

As sad as it is Froch will now be more well known after struggling on ITV.

What are promoters being paid for because they arent trying very hard.

Remember Benn and Eubank were all over tv programmes to hype their rematch even though it didnt need it.

People dont care about boxing because boxers nowadays dont try very hard to get a bigger audience, after all the better the audience the better they get paid.

A few day time tv programmes, adverts even something like a reality tv programme, thats why boxng isnt as popular because its not on the most watched media and its on at stupid times that people cant be bothered to stay up till, even the uk shows that have a main event at about 10 is too late, if they were on at 8pm, theyd get much bigger audiences and interest.

10pm on a weekend most casual sports fans are pissed out their skulls and wont watch tv.

Even sky sports say the fight is off now it doesnt look good nothing on Hatton site yet! Hatton even went up to 53% in the end and Manny doesnt want to know.

[the wiz]

I just don't understand the people in Manny's ear. 50-52% of a lot money will be a lot more than whatever his high percentage against Humberto Soto or Valero will be. Arum must be pulling whatever hair he has left out.
