    Yes because it's the old Puerto Rico Mexico rivalry!

    Only hardcore fans knew about Martinez, but perhaps the Canelo-Lopez fight on the same night wasn't helping in sells either.

    This could be right in all honesty, it's not like there has been some historical build for Canelo-Cotto and it's finally happening, no undefeated records either. It's just Mexico's #1 against PR's. If you're wondering whether that says Floyd's fight beats theirs no matter what I don't think so. If they end up fighting on the same night for cinco, Cotto-Canelo fight I believe easily cannibalizes Floyd's fight. I think somewhere between two thirds and three quarters of would be Floyd's buyers would be buying Cotto-Canelo that night because of a combination of the promise of a more exciting fight and it being cinco.

    lol, damn, even over Pac-May?? If that actually happened I gotta admit my would explode over that one but, thankfully there's no way. Cotto-Canelo would have to step aside for that one.

    Canelo added to Floyd's ppv record and cotto is already #3 ppv in the game. Of course it will be. #canelo.

    Canelo might have the number 3 spot.

    it can do 1-1.5 if u ask me. When the boxing world and public want a fight, most of the time it can do great numbers. you add Canelo as the most popular mexican fighter today and lots of casuals know him. to Cotto whos the best Puertorcian fighter today and alot of casuals know him, you get a super fight.

    PPL say well whats there numbers when they didnt fight Mayweather. does anybody remeber Mayweather's numbers before he fought DLH?? exactly! When the public wants something it can do great numbers. Cotto-Canelo can do 1.5 if u ask me

    he didnt stick nothing to the WBO :lol:

    So he told his fighter to drop the title, so what? ppl been doing that for years. Haymon anit the first one to tell his fighter to drop a title..BOB HAS BEEN DOING IT SINCE THE 60'S!

    Oscar dont need anybody. hes got a promoter license, still biggest company by far and still makes great fights. theres a reason why Broner,Garcia, Mayweather keep working with him
