Cotto is a far bigger draw than mosley yet Mayweather-Mosley did bigger numbers. That answers the debate. Money is the clear bigger draw
Pacquiao has all the chinese,japanese,asians,thai's,mexicans,puerto ricans,half the african americans,pacquiao took hatton and de la hoya fans after he beat them,only fans floyd got left against pacquiao is his die hard and the people who come to his gym.
Mayweather is an American. Discussion is over. I'm pretty sure a Mayweather/Clottey fight would've did better than Pac/Clottey, seeing as any Mayweather fight would get 24/7.
floyd-mosley is a fight between two americans while pac-cotto between two non-english speaking filipino and puerto rican. floyd-mosley was hyped to hell and GBP invested huge amounts of money in promotions while Top Rank's arum doesn't believe in huge promotions thus letting pac-cotto just sell for itself.
theer are some real douchebags in here. Don't think for a minute that cotto didn't have a huge hand in those numbers that he and pac generated. Cottoa is a draw, don't be fooled. Here, you have 2 african american boxers in mayweather and mosley and they did 1.4 million homes, are you guys stupid not to think that this great numbers. Come on man, why the hate. Yes, mayweather would not have made the money he is maing now w/o de le hoya, but u can say the same thing about these fighters fighting mayweather.
