The Pacman Share

Reports have come out saying that Manny Pacquiao will not fight Ricky Hatton unless he gets at least 60% of the share in revenues for the May 2 fight. After all, he is the pound for pound king! The Hatton camp has threatened to file a case about the issue claiming that Bob Arum had already verbally agreed to a 50/50 on behalf of Pacman.

It seems to me that because of the potential Great Britain PPV market, a 50/50 share is very fair. Team Pacquiao needs to look at the take home, not the share. Getting 60% or even 70% of a fight that will gross less than half of the Hatton fight will give you much less than 50% of something huge. The larger share vs take home only massages the pride, not the pocket.


Another option is to have a 60/40 share for Hatton in Great Britain, then 60/40 Pacman everywhere else. But I reckon even with the 50% share, Manny will still take home his largest payday ever. "Para sa Bayan!", but the Money doesn't hurt I guess.

I checked the site kanina to look for this week's sked, trying to find the time for the replays of the NFL conference championship games but all I saw was a solar sports logo and the date. FYI lang. Thanks. Great blog btw.

Noted on the site. This has been an ongoing problem with Solar so we will try to see how to eventually get it right. I'm told it was shut down simply because it was not being updated regularly.

Peace.

The people at Panerai as "the ultimate chronograph" and, if you listen to the buzz, Panerai Watches may indeed be right.

In other words, there is nothing "off the shelf" about the workings of this watch: it is all Replica Panerai Watches .
