    Nice.... I much rather see Cotto fight Floyd than PAC since we all know how that fight plays out.... I see Floyd winning this fight against Cotto convincingly but I do think it will be competitive.

    Regarding the PPV#'s for this fight.. OVER 1 million easy. 1.3 seems to be a safe call. Can't wait to see this one.

    It's a better fight than the PAC vs Tim Bradley mis match.:patsch PAC needed to fight a real Welter Weight.. Not a solid Jr WW with a whole lot of hype.

    That changes things if it happens.

    Cinco de Mayo + Alvarez = massive ppv sale from that alone.

    I'm surprised no one's brought this up sooner. If Alvarez can get the state of Texas and every Mexican across the US to order HBO to watch him pummel Matthew "I Aint ****" Hatton. Imagine how many people would order it for the sake of watching him finish Mosley for good.

    Then you have Cotto and Mayweather...and I'm sure a fight or two more with intrigue (some smaller weight contenders fighting an eliminator).

    This card will carry some nice heat. This PPV easily does over 1 mill.

    Pac/Bradley does dick because Arum is a facist **** who doesn't work with anyone and it'll be all in house fights that are boring as **** and he'll be lucky to crack 750k.

    Would you retract your statement if it's official that Mosley/Alvarez is on the bill?

    I wont buy it but i'll watch it in a pub somewhere, this fight will do just fine, the PR community in the states and the island will support it and the fight will get 700k buys easily on ricans alone... with good promotion and floyds fame it can get to a million which is pretty good
