Money is King: Pacquiao vs Hatton no more
The deal is off - no more Pacquiao vs. Hatton fight on May, 2009. I still like to believe the deal still has some chances to succeed, after all, we boxing fans of the world, want a great boxing match between two great fighters who are “hungry for honors”.
Or, are boxers these days hungry for more money? It seems the Pacquiao-Hatton slug fest won’t push through because of only one reason – no obviously not about honor, recognition, championship belt – but money.
Before, boxing fights are negotiated between promoters, but these days, boxers themselves dictate the terms. A positive development, I should say, since boxers should get a bigger share and earn more than promoters and businessmen. But there is a danger of fights not happening if a boxer feels that money is not worth every punch that lands on his face.
After all, who does not want “more money?”
By the way, for us who speak the Visayan dialect, Manny and Money may sound the same. So what does ‘bai Pacquiao afraid of?
Not earning as much money as expected? (certainly, 10% difference is so much already when you’re talking about hundreds of millions of dollars).
Or is Manny afraid of Ricky “the Hitman” Hatton? I prefer to think of Manny as becoming a bit greedy now, than becoming one big “talawan nga sunoy”. Cockadoodle doo! Prrrk prrrrk prrrrk potaaaakkk???.
Chicken soup, anyone?
What do you think of the Pacquiao-Hatton “bungled Fight”?
- Just Fair. Pacquiao deserves getting more than 50% (59%, 10 Votes)
- Chicken (24%, 4 Votes)
- Disappointed. Honor over money! (18%, 3 Votes)
- I don’t care (-1%, 0 Votes)

Metz, you’re now twice as busy, and most probably four times as rich.
hehe. Slow down a little bit.
I just heard that the fight is ON. Too many disappointed fans. People are simply interested in the upcoming fight – not that money deal.
You’re right Gem, people are interested to know who’s the better fighter. And bloggers are interested to earn little from traffic.
galing ng graphics bagay na bagay yung umiiyak na pacquiao na bitbit ng manager nya. naaalala ko tuloy ang mga kawawang boxers na hindi naging kasing swerte ni pacquiao pero magagaling din naman. anyway nakakatuwa ang blog mo basahin. be back soon!

Hey thanks for the visit Shasha. I saw your site, it’s great!
Yahoo! It’s confirmed from today’s newspapers that the fight is on! Medyo OT: I used to love the claim that crime rates go down when Pacquiao has a fight until our house was burglarized during his fight with David Diaz last June 2008.

At least all our pacquiao-hatton seo posts were not ‘wasted’.
Damn, really? so these burglars also now taking advantage of pacquiao fights? That was odd, but good thing you were all safe… Be careful next time.
Yup, tuloy na ang laban!
Tuloy na din SEP posts ng mga pinoy bloggers. Hehe
This fight is too good to be thrown to garbage bin. Good thing Manny agreed to the 52-48 deal. At least it’s still a “bit” bigger than Hatton’s share.
2% of USD100 million is USD2 million. Still enough for pacquiao to buy 10 mansions.
Hi B and gang
,
Zipping by to drop my cards and to say how grateful I am to have found you in the blogosphere. And hope that your weekend was great and that you weekdays start out well.
stay healthy always and better yet happy

Thanks Metz. Good to see you back and well.
di pa sayang ang mga SE optimizations on the fight.
Well according to the team pacquiao its about respect kaya sila humihngi ng mas mataas na sa 50/50 na hatian ng kita. And I think may ponit naman sila.
Good thing the fight is on… again. Hope Pacman still wins this one =)
This gonna be an exciting fight of the year… both are great fighters.. yeah… best of the best Manny Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton…
the fight is on so what we gonna do now is to wait and feel the excitement as the fight comes to near… hehehe
oh yeah!!!!!
