    Not likely what did Cotto vs Margo II do? 500K?

    Cotto while popular seems to be the strong B side of a PPV event, rather than A side.

    I dont believe Canelo is a PPV star.....yet, he is in a similar situation to Khan very popular but are his fans willing to shell out $50 to watch him? Probably not.....unless he is in with someone like Mayweather.

    I would say if its even a PPV event it won't sell more than 700K

    No, I don't think it would. If it did at least 750k it would be a good sign for boxing though because it means people besides Floyd/Manny can sell big. We are due for another changing of the guard similar to Oscar passing the torch to Floyd.

    I think it would. surely mayweather - alvarez would be make 1.5 - 2, that one could realy be a mega fight. 2 unbeaten, mexico vs usa. welterweight king vs light middleweight king :admin

    whoever wins this one, would get mega props from any boxing or non casual fan. this fight has to be done. if canelo won, he would be the new king of boxing, if floyd won, he won enter the p4p top 10 ever list of anybody.

    wtf I have had one name and I would stick with it you know that fight aint doin 1 mil. Canelo is legit but he has never been on ppv and Mayweather ended Cotto.

    I am not worried for Floyd but the Showtime boxing budget Floyd get 32 mil no matter what shout out to Al Haymon

    I am sure he isnt going to keep getting that guaranteed money if his fights keep doing **** there has to be some sort of clause in the contract either way Cotto does not deserve another title shot.

    What has he done? he has lost how many fights in a row now? his only win is over Margarito at a catch weight and even then he had help from the Dr to get that win and this is a guy you have all called a bum a nobody.

    So based on that whats he done to earn him yet another title shot? Nothing! there is no need for this fight... Cotto doesnt deserve it

    No Cotto is coming off of two loses. I have no idea why this fight is even being talked about. This is the fight they wanted all along though and badly wanted to make this instead of Canelo-Trout in the first place.

    Al Haymon is the best in the biz FLoyd gets paid no matter what. While you are rooting for Showtimes boxing budget to go down .

    Cotto should not be fighting Canelo but what do you expect out of Oscar? Yeah this isnt on Richard this is an Oscar move
