Pacquiao vs. Hatton… for sure?
Rumors of the next fight for the Filipino’s champion, Manny Pacquiao being Ricky Hatton have been around for a while but the actual agreement(contracts are yet to be signed by both players) have yet to be finalized. There were some issues with Manny who allegedly released statements that he would not be fighting Hatton if the purse cut wasn’t revised baffled promoters who have been hard at work pushing for the fight. Lawyers say this would be resolved and any issue would be handled by both men.
Manny, who defeated The Golden Boy, Oscar Dela Hoya sometime ago is set to return to the Philippines early next year to attend to his wife and new child might be distracted emotionally resulting in the comment. Promoters say he hasn’t talked to any of them but they promise that it will be done. If indeed the deal is signed and finalized, Manny is set to return to the US for training and preparation for his upcoming fight with Hatton coming May 2.
