Pacquiao vs. Hatton on May 2

Bob ArumMark your calendars! The much anticipated match-up between boxing sensation Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton has been set for May 2 in Sin City. With 5 months away, expect another rich purse for both fighters as this billing has been highly touted and expected to rack in the cash.

No definite amount has been disclosed although according to promoter Bob Arum the income from this one will be lucrative as well, bulk of which will be coming from the Britain pay-per-view. Pacquiao made no less than $10 million on his last fight against Oscar Dela Hoya.

The Filipino superstar is locked on to face Britain’s Ricky Hatton on May 2 in Las Vegas, and is hoping to land an even bigger fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr. later on.

SpongeBob Saved: Viacom, Time Warner Cable Settle Dispute


NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — The nasty public dispute over rates fees Time Warner Cable and Viacom over the New Year's Eve holiday has been settled. The parties reached an agreement in principle to renew carriage Viacom's MTV Networks, which include Nickelodeon, MTV, VH1 and Comedy Central shortly after the contract's midnight deadline on Jan. 1.

SpongeBob and Dora The Explorer Saved from Blackout

NickelodeonKids are sure to be relieved that favorite cartoon characters SpongeBob Square Pants and Dora the Explorer will continue to grace their TV sets as a last minute deal regarding the fees for the airing of these popular shows was finally settled. There was a dispute over fees for the airing of some shows by Viacom and Time Warner and a potential blackout would have resulted if not for the last-minute deal that happened earlier this morning.

Among the shows that would have been affected included:

1. SpongeBob SquarePants
2. Dora the Explorer
3. The Colbert Report
4. The Daily Show
5. MTV
6. Nickelodeon
7. Comedy Central

The impasse would have meant Viacom’s channels would be cut off to 13 million subscribers, said Alex Dudley, a Time Warner Cable vice president. The nation’s second-largest cable operator primarily serves people in the Carolinas, New York, Ohio, Southern California and Texas.

Time Warner chief executive Glenn Britt had earlier called Viacom’s demand for a 12 percent increase in fees – an extra $39 million on top of the estimated $300 million it pays Viacom annually – extortion and outrageous given the recession.
