    It did sell well actually and if i remember correctly was the most watched event on HBO of the year. Boxing wise anyways.

    It was a pretty good fight in which Cotto showed us he wasnt fully shot yet.
    That left hook to the body was awesome.

    Foreman-Cotto was a fairly close fight until the injury but there aren't many people who would pay to see a rematch.

    No my friend that fight was boring and I'm a Cotto fan, but hey it made a good gate too. It was at the new Yankee stadium.

    Both fighters impressed me, cotto because he showed he wasnt shot and did great bodywork in that fight, foreman for showing heart and keep trying even if it meant limping on one leg through the ring. I remember when he fell people started laughing and booing him, I thought that was th end but kept going for a few rounds being very brave.
    The only idiot in that fight was the referee.
