Just to be consistent, is Cotto fighting Margo for less than 8 million dollars?

    Any news on purses?


    I read Margo was guaranteed 1.5 million but I was wondering about Cotto...

    Puerto Rico newspaper said 5M Cotto. ANd I am not sure if MArgo was 1.5 or 2.5M. I know is the best payday in Margarito's career. Now thats guaranteed money. The rest depend on PPV and how much they get from it

    I believe Cotto will get 5.5, plus PPV revenue from this fight. This is from endi.com and primerahora.com. Arum originally wanted to pay Cotto a flat fee for the fight but Cotto wanted 5.5 plus PPV earnings which is fair. Margarito got 2.5 I believe... :good :good
