It seems that everything has been ironed out for the Pacquiao - Hatton bout on May 2, 2009. In a news interview yesterday, Manny Pacquiao announced that both camps agreed to a 52-48% pay cuts in favor of course of Manny Pacquiao.
Earlier, Manny's camp was asking for a heftier pay at 60%, they were claiming that Pacman is still the best pound for pound boxer in the world and deserves a better pay cut.
Top Rank's Bob Arum gave Manny's camp until 1st of February to settle or face another fighter, a Mayweather Jr. instead. It was when Pacman & his legal advisers decided to accept the offer.
Well, after much negotiation & talks, as a boxing fan, I just hope that this will be a hell of a fight.
