According to Gareth Williams (Hattons lawyer) on Bunceys Boxing hour yesterdat they've never waivered from the 50/50 split, so we'll see if they stick to that or if they're willing to take the 48%.

ooooooooooo get you Gareth, what a scathing tongue you have)
All the bollocks aside this is a Great fight and I really hope it gets confirmed

Good to at least hear the fight is not completly dead yet.... Should be a bit more edge to the fight now as well, if it does come off, with all the trouble thats been caused through these negotiations.

Will Hatton and co accept the 52-48 split though?

55/45 is fine in favour of Pacquiao. That's what it should have been in the first place.
There was always way too much money to be made in this event for it to ever be cancelled. Both sides knew that.

Just read elsewhere that Hatton's representatives are still expecting 50-50 so there could be more negotiating required!!!!

Gareth is a good bloke - he helped me out on a personal matter for which he didn't even take a beer off me for - but he also likes a bit of a giggle himself concerning the banter that goes on in boxing!!!

Hatton should be taking less than PacMan anyway, after all, it's an all time great against a decent LW belt holder. He's lucky to get the chance, he's not exactly been beating a list of legends like Manny has, not even close.

Whilst I agree with what you are saying - as the phrase goes - styles make fights - its weird but I give Ricky a huge chance in this fight - it is going to be a sensational fight in my view!!
