If berto handles business tonight in an impressive fashion and Ortiz happens to lose to Floyd in an all out method do u think Ortiz can bring his newly aquired fans to a Berto vs Ortiz 2 event and would pay to see a fight of the year potential repeat?
No, Floyd is gon do a thorough job at wrecking Ortiz. Ortiz isn't going to be able to headline a PPV immediately after.
It will flop. Pavlik Taylor was one of the best fights of the year but the rematch only sold 250,000 Ortiz and Berto aren't big enough stars. Ortiz Peterson had 745,000 Berto Urango was around 900,000 And they both pulled 1,542,000
It would be a great main event or co-main event. Throw Alvarez vs. low level contender and Malignaggi vs. step up from Lora in competition on the undercard and it probably does a lot more than "Morales/Maidana" or "Hopkins/Dawson."
