    In the previous fights with the exception of Pacquiao v Diaz, Filipinos have been the minority at the fight.

    Is Pac's nickname really "The Greatest"?

    It'll be about even...especialy when there are only about 6,000 seats available to those who are not press, sponsors, Top Rank, and HBO employees.

    theres definitely gonna be more filipinos. theres a huge filipino population in california. they'll be traveling. Puerto Ricans are mainly on the east coast, almost exclusively. Theres no question whose house its gonna be on that night, Pac's. There will be P.Ricans at the fight but they wont be challenging the filipino presence. whoever chooses puerto ricans is sadly mistaken and completely unaware of the varying demographics across the u.s

    Well probably pinoys they have tons of money now from betting for Pac. Just look at our idiot president having 3 meals in the US worthing 2million dollars.

    This is the biggest fight for Cotto (not most difficult) in terms of the world will be watching. Puerto Rican's know this and should be coming from PR, NY and south Florida areas to support their boy...

    This should be equivalent to the Trinidad-Delahoya fight...'Ricans will be there.

    There will be more flips there probably. But the support for Cotto will be heard.
