    Let's say cotto vs canelo gets signed first and then mayweather vs pacquiao undercuts the may 2nd date. Them both happen on the same night... Floyd vs Pac on sho and cotto vs canelo on hbo.... What would the PpVs look like?

    I would guesstimate.

    Floyd vs Pac: 3.1m sold
    Cotto vs Canelo: 275k ppv sold

    That's my personal guess though... What's yours?

    Cotto-Canelo = 578 PPV Buys, attendance of 32 people at the fight (mostly family, ref quits to go watch Pac-May)

    Why not have a dual site multi channel mega event with both fights on the same card, it would be epic, and because of everyone's collective ego's impossible to pull off.

    You'd have to be clueless to think Canelo/Cotto doesn't take any viewers from Pac/Floyd.

    Pac/PBF promises to be the bigger event, Canelo/Cotto promises to be the better fight.

    ..and since when has anybody walked out on a Canelo or Cotto fight?

    This is Pac-Floyd. The whole world will be watching this fight. I would be even surprised if Cotto-Canelo reaches 100k buys.

    Are you telling me if you were given the option to watch canelo vs cotto or floyd vs manny you would watch cotto vs canelo?
    I too know what the better fight is, but fact is NO ONE is watching cotto vs canelo over THE FIGHT.

    Of the two mismatches I'd tune in to watch Canelo-Cotto.
    I'd guess though that Mayweather-Pacquiao would sell under 2 million, and Canelo-Cotto would sell about 200K.

    Not at all interested to watch Mayweather embarrass Pacquiao.

    I think Mayweather-Khan is the better fight and I'd pick that fight over the other 2.


    I also think everyone should screw everyone involved in promoting Mayweather-Pacquiao and boycott it as show them to stage fights when they're supposed to be staged and not years past its expiration date.

    Mayweather vs Pacquiao would literally bury Cotto vs Alvarez as if those two never existed. This is the fight fans throughout the world have been literally barking for nonstop since 2009. I assure you if this fight happens, Alvarez vs Cotto will find another date. You must be a fool to think that this fight will steal viewers from Mayweather vs Pacquiao especially with Alvarez' Catchweight demands.
