Feb 21: Cotto & Pavlik? WTF?!?!?!

Yes -- it is. To me these fights are more like co-features than main event and preliminary. Cotto is fighting on the east coast; Pav in the midwest. different time zones, and Cotto is in the zone with the later time, so his fight happens first.

 

We are in the same time zone. EST

 

Their respective drawingpower depends on what part of the country they fight in.

Anywhere in the midwest: Pavlik by a mile.

AC: about equal

Vegas: About equal

MSG: Cotto by a huge margin.

As for PPV drawing power neither is "ready for prime time." They have a lot of fans in common. Plus Cotto draws the the PRs, and Pav the white folks. Even though we have a lot of people whining and bitching about this PPV, I think it will do okay. Both guys have a decent fan base, and everyone is anxious to see how they do after taking their ass whippin's.

 

Okay -- my bad. I thought Ohio was central.

 

All of ohio is EST. However, Youngstown is on the border of Western Pa.

 

Still waiting on the ticket info...........

 

Thought they turned down Pavlik/Rubio too. These guys are coming off losses and should be on a free card to encourage people to watch them. Looks like putting both on the same PPV is what made HBO accept it.

 

It is not an HBO production. It is a Top Rank Production that On Demand will feature.
