Oscar De La Hoya vs Manny Pacquiao fight back on
August 27, 2008
According to ESPN.com the Oscar De La Hoya (39-5) and Manny Pacquiao (47-3-2) fight looks to be back on track. After negotiations between Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao’s camp were not able to settle the money split between the two. It looks as they have possible met a settlement they both agree on. Betting will be available at Sportsbook.com -De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao odds are up
The first negotiation was a 70/30 split in favor of Oscar and rightfully so, because without De La Hoya there would be nowhere near as much money in the pot to split. This would be by far the biggest fight of the year. They did agree previously on a few of Pacquiao’s demands, he got his way on the glove weight (8 ounces) and also a 147 pound weight limit for the fight. The revenue on this Mega fight is expected to be over $100 Million. Pacquiao was upset about the proposed 70/30 split even-though it would take him at-least 5 fights to earn what he would make against Oscar.
This fight has not been officially announced. Oscar De La Hoya is set to make an announcement Thursday, August 28, on who will be his final opponent come this December.
