Another $50 on a damn PPV..although this fight card seems to be getting stacked I think $34.99 would have been a better price and would probably produce more buys..

From what I've been keeping up wit this card I've seen some pretty big names such as

Cotto-Jennings
Pavlik-Rubio
Calderon-TBA??
Clottey-Cintron??

I've even seen somewhere that Juanma might even end up on this card..don't know how true it is but I gotta say the $50 is damn worth it for Hardcore fans..but not the casuals unless they are hometown favorites like Pavlik..

You guys buying this?

I think they should of held the fight in Cleveland. It isnt that far from Youngstown and they could of probably got 12k or so in the Quicken Loans arena. Instead they r going to hold it in a 7000 seat arena which will sell out but they coulda got more people. I am buying the PPV since the card is good and Cotto is my favorite fighter. Besides the Cotto fight the other 3-4 fights make a better PPV then what we have seen in a long time. Arum is doing a good job with this one.

is the clottey vs cintron and calderon fight both at msg with the cotto fight? if so then i'll be there thanks for the info!

If the Clottey Cintron fight is on this card, then I'm buying it, no doubt.

[2501]

Yeah, Clottey vs. Cintron almost makes this worth 50. ALMOST. feel bad for Cintron though.

[NAPO]

I think Youngstown is a good choice.

Selling 7000 tickets to a 7000 seat arena is better than selling 8500 in a 12000 seater. The atmosphere will be great for this fight and the packed house will look good for the Tv audience.
