3. punk wanted more than 50% of the purse, money is everything you know
4. pacquiao is “just” a filipino. why would he wanted to be beaten up by a filipino
5. he needs a warm-up fight with marquez… sorry marquez. nowadays, you’rejust for tune-up fights
6. he watched the pacquiao-hatton bout
7. because roach said so. and, i believe him
8. because punk senior doesn’t think so. and i don’t believe him
9. he would fight a mexican first, when he thinks mexicans are better fighters
10. simply because pacquiao is better than him

pacquiao destroyed hatton in 2nd round. nothing yet could be seen in youtube so here’s the closest update that i can dig up.

so what’s next for hatton? he might fight the southpaw boxer,zab judah or russian australian kostya tszyu.

pacquiao’s next anticipated match is with floyd mayweather jr, who is coming out of retirement and is matching up in july with juan manuel marquez, which i guess, is a warm up match for the pacquiao-mayweather match.
