Cotto Vs Margarito tickets not as hot as some predicted

your insane...

there would be 1 episode of 24/7

floyd would talk as much trash as usual which would get margo riled up and he would follow up with the **** talking

more antics from roger mayweather

fights atleast doing 200k views

 

It wouldve sold out tickets and wouldve done atleast 350k buys ... more people would tune in because the pre-fight hype would be Margarito being the most dangerous welterweight and how he's a serious threat to Floyd undefeated record because of his size, height, length, and workrate.

"Margarito is big enough to get to hurt Mayweather, he will hit Floyd to the body ... blah blah blah ...

200k would watch Floyd ... 30-50 would tune it to watch Margarito and the other 100k would be Floyd haters who like the fact that PBF has a chance to lose a fight to a bigger guy.

 

I'm talking about going to the fight, not PPV buys atsch There have been fights that have done well by PPV, BUT TICKETS SELLS WERE NOT GOOD. U feel me

 

Just put it like this, I wish the fight had happen, but who knows because Baldo vs Floyd did bad as far as sells. I was at the fight ,so I know . bUT it did good PPV numbers. So I think its 50/50, but who is Margo to people who don't know boxing? You get what I'm saying

 

Really:think So this means the fans there booing the decision were also Floyd fans interesting:think

 

Mayweather v Baldomir 350k buys ...

 

Of course Floyd will say and use any excuse he can to avoid fighting these guys that is not new, neither is the fact that the only time he had any success in terms of ticket sales or numbers is when he fought a guy who had a huge following such as Gatti, Hatton and DLH

 

Mayweather did those number on PPV last year ... you see DLH and Hatton would not be able to match those numbers by themselves.

You see what direction both fighters went after fighting FLoyd.

 

Fitz I know that, but the ticket sell were no good. All I'm saying is that a fight can do well on PPV, but that doesn't mean ticket sell will be good. Like that fight and Winky vs Hoo

 

It was all there fans to as far as the three you listed

 

Did Hoya vs Mayorga sell more than Hatton vs fLOYD IN THE US. dONT KNOW FOR SURE

 

You got a point there. Unfortunetly most USA fans prefer to see all that getto gangsta bling bling talking. Some of us just want to see good boxing matches.

 

These two fighters don't catch the eye of the casual fan ... I think this fight belongs on HBO WCB ... it seems like there have been a few PPV fights that weren't worthy of having the PPV tag.

Margarito has a small fan base ... JC jr has a bigger fan base than Margarito does and he's an up and comer.

 

I agree with that I do feel that Cotto needs a PPV fighter or bigger name than Margo to sell this fight. But I will still be ordering it

 

this was the #1 selling fight of all time...

better than any oscar fight before

so obviously oscar didnt do it alone

my bad

but if your speaking of floyd fighting margarito july 23rd or whatever

which is after he fought hatton & oscar

the fight would sell out... period
