    Exactly,there is a difference between trying to speak english and being american, is just a matter of connection plain and simple. it is obvious that common americans not boxing followers would be interested in one of their own winning,a lot more press coverage another great american champion on the rise.Imagine if Cotto was born and raised in the US AND had fought for the US at the Olympics the all american dream, one has to face reality I'm not criticizing the US that is just the way it is everywhere you always pay more attention to your own.And in this corner the undefeated all american and olympic champion Miguel the "Dream" Cotto.:rofl

    Are you going to try to tell me that Abdulaev is a good fighter? The same Abdulaev who,before facing Cotto, had all of 16 pro fights and lost to Emmanuel(not even Joshua) Clottey? I'm going to let you think about that. Just because a guy wins a gold medal doesn't mean he's a good pro fighter(don't even waste both our times arguing this point).

    Being at the Judah fight was unbelievable. As cliche as this sounds....the atmosphere really was electric. It was nuts in the Garden. I am SO happy MSG landed the Mosley fight. His stock is going to go through the ROOF after beating Mosley.

    depends on what country and city...if this country or city is an avid fan of boxing...then we can expect the fight will be sell out.

    cotto's fights from now on will def. fill up all the seats, its just more of a fantastic and better atmosphere in ny since most of his fans are closely located there... I bet if this mosley fight took place in las vegas or l.a. they would have a great turnout, but the atmosphere wont be as loud and fun to be in compare to ny... and honestly most fighters dont sell out all seats with exception of DLH in the U.S.... why are we mixing goverment/politics with boxing, lets just keep it boxing:patsch

    Cotto sells out big time now. We are talking 10,000 to 15,000. I think the Abdulaev fight was getting overshadowed by Tyson v McBride.
