    If Cotto beats Margarito, could Cotto vs PPF draw close to de la hoya type money??

    absolutely not...

    people do not understand this side of this fight

    oscar is a superstar in the sports world...

    i dont even think the cotto fight got a running on espn

    hes not well known enough and its true ... if thats the true reason floyd does not want to fight him yet

    I don't think you got it. He's not Pretty Boy Floyd no more, he's Floyd Money Mayweather.:lol: Hence, the PBF acronym is no longer applicable when talking currently about Mayweather.:D

    yeah, i remembered from one of his early fights when he was just a prospect the announcers tell about cotto and he's shy and quite. But i think he looks cool, and would definitely look like a bad ass with just a little bit of attitude

    It went over your head. I asked "who is PPF?" I know damn well who P-B-F is.

    The question is "who is P-P-F???"

    No way but it can be built into the next megafight.

    Money will beat DLH but Im sure what he will do after that, nor will the fight be as huge if it happens straight away.
    Id like to see it ASAP.

    Cotto takes on Magarito..then who Berto, Mayorga?. He hasnt got as many options. If Cotto keeps winning he will be become a superstar but hasnt quite the following yet I think thats what they will try and wait for unfortunately.

    i undrstand what you are saying, but those excuses about cotto not being a draw, are pure bull****. floydboys are quick to point out the ppv numbers for dlh and hatton fights and try to wear it as a shield. when the fact is that both of those fighters have extremely large fan bases.

    cotto mosley was reported at between 400 - 450k. pbf;s previous high was 375k vs judah. so him saying cotto doesn't bring numbers as to why he will not fight him reeks of bull****, as clearly prior to dlh his high water mark was less than cottto's.

    I look at the fact that Gatti, Judah, Baldomir, Oscar, and Hatton got career high paydays and career high PPV numbers by fighting floyd. they didn't do it alone!! i say PBF/Cotto does 400K-800K if they fight this year, but if cotto gets his fanbase up, i could see it doing a million-plus. that's what floyd is waiting for. he's also at the point where he can sit back and wait for the next fighter to become great so that he can cash in and get a big payday. i think that's respectable for the fact that he is in a position that most fighters dream of: fight when and where you want and get a 8 figure payday when you do!!!:happy

    Most experts call Cotto a superstar...I would like to see Floyd's draw without a big name superstar opponent...I bet he couldn't draw flies to ****. Just like he couldn't sell out in his home town.:deal

    Floyd isn't waiting for ****...that ***** is running away from Miguel. It's so obvious, that Larry Merchant had to call Floyd out.
