No people are confusing things and they are making assumptions...calling Manny greedy etc...
Fact is Manny and his people know what they guys at 147, etc get paid....He also knows that Hatton is a GBP fighter now....He knows what GBP can pay out and what they do pay out to opp......People forget that Pacquiao even though he has fought in smaller divisions with big names...The guys in those divisions regardless of how big the name recieve much smaller pay days then these other guys.....He has jumped up the divisions that these guys have been at for years...he is the smaller man...He is the P4P #1 fighter in the world...He figures why be paid like an opponent and why accept 126lb fighter money from guys at palces like Top Rank, Goosen, whe he should be getting paid.....WW/lww money from the promoter who pays the best in GBP......
Pacquiao is just refusing to be the opponent when it comes to the pay scale....He has the name recognition just as much as any of the other guys.....He wants either equal or more money because he has made the biggest jump....He has equal resume in quality if not better.....
Ask yourself this....
Would you jump up divisions to fight bigger guys for less money while they get paid more?
