Pacquiao Vs. Hatton Closed Deal

Finally, after all the controversies, the Pacquiao vs. Hatton fight is now signed and sealed. Pacquiao finally agreed to a 52-48 share.


The fight is scheduled on May 2 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Tickets will go on sale this Friday with prices at $1,000, $750, $500, $350 and $150.

According to Pacquiao always like new challenges, which is the reason he is anxious to fight Ricky Hatton. His trainer Freddie Roach will put together a new game plan, which will be much different than the one we used against Oscar [De La Hoya]. There are concerns because Hatton is a very strong puncher so he must deal with that in the ring. Pacquiao promise to be completely prepared and will do his best for all of my fans in the Philippines.

On the other hand Hatton is very excited to get back in the ring in Vegas after beating [Paulie] Malignaggi in November. He is confident to take down the pound-for-pound champion and be victorious on May 2.
