Shane is the real fighter from LA being born and raised there, margarito only training there. Shane's fight with mayorga a very highly entertaining and known opponent brought in a measly 3,500 fans. So come jan 24th when they announce a packed house just like margarito was able to do against a no name williams (to till this day is a garbage sell), you will see margarito can fill the seats! Can't wait for this fight it should be a great atmosphere with of course about 9/10 fans rooting for margarito in shanes hometown :rofl:
wtf? u and probably 3 other ppl are the only margarito fans lol.
hopefully 09 will be the year that punching bag with chin vanishes, so u idiots could finally shut the fuk up about margarito.
Cotto fans have to be the most ignorant people on this board. I could count the number of cotto fans in my section in one hand at the MGM. Cotto didn't have shit on margarito in the crowd so there goes your hate filled theory. You guys are still bitter that margarito beat the shit out of your hero. and what makes it best is that puerto ricans walk around like their shit don't stink cotto and his wax eyebrows included and then when push comes to shove cotto back peddles to the corner and takes a knee like a bitch! Just like his fans!
idiot........... So how does he sell out cesars palace in vegas against cintron(yes the same cesars palace where the hollyfield and bowe went to battle) and the home depot center. And he before the fight happend vs cotto 12,000 plus filled the MGM with 80-90% of them being margarito fans. you're hate is as ignorant as it gets. And now your a shane fane rooting for him against margarito lol

I'm just telling it like it is. I like Margo but his fans are too delusional.
Cotto gives their boy his big break and they turn around and spit in his face.
you're only 20 so your still a young kid and you haven't been watching boxing long. Margarito has been a ww to be reckoned with for a long time. You're a damn hypocrite to call margarito fans delusional. Go back to pre july 26th and all you guys were fuken clowns and ignorant! Come july 26th margarito beats the shit out of your hero makes him run to the corner and take a knee to quit the fight and now all you do is hate. Funn you say you like him but yet bash him every chance you get. No wonder i had your dumb ass on ignore damn kids.
P.S. Antonio Margarito is a nobody without Miguel Cotto :D

Didn't cotto vs gomez in atlantic city bring the 2nd worst rating EVER on HBO's Boxing after Dark?? :) and the arena wasn't a sell out.
and margarito was in the undercard
all the fighters you named are better than margarito and historically will be looked at as better boxers than margarito so who cares how much he he sells in cali where there are a bunch of mexicans lets see if he sells out in the garden
This guy continues to show how much of a racist moron he is. So then by your idiotic theory roy jones sold out MSG because he's black and there's alot of blacks in new york and also new york is only a flight away from the calzaghe fans that made the trip. And cotto only sells out msg because he's pr and there's alot of pr's there. You're a tool take your childish shit somewhere else.
Why hasn't HBO or Top Rank released official numbers??
You're fuken annoying mr "boxingscene idiot of the year" award winner. You want "official" word when you try to flip things but yet take goosens words as the god honest truth of everything. Damn clown.

Is money worth more in the Garden? If it isn't you just made a totally stupid comment.
why did roy jones jr and calzaghe only do have of margarito vs cotto, why did hopkins vs pavlik do half of margarito vs cotto, why is paul yet to even headline a ppv?

i guess calzaghe, jones, and margarito are not a big draw.
plus hbo offered 4 mil now the offered a lil bit more. cotto's minimum would be 3 mil.
Cotto vs Mosley - 400,000 ppv
Cotto vs Judah - 225,000 ppv
"The MGM Grand Garden Arena seats 16,000. A disappointing crowd of 10,477 attended the fight. Puerto Rico vs. Mexico is still essentially an east coast rivalry. The bout would have been better attended had it taken place at Madison Square Garden or in Atlantic City. But Arum’s judgment was vindicated by the first post-fight pay-per-view numbers, which indicate that there were close to 500,000 buys."
- Thomas Hauser
why would that be?? i guess because more of cotto fan would of gone to the fight.

you still didnt answer the question tho.
mosley vs margarito hbo bad
cotto vs jenning ppv
margo better win against mosley. if he loses he wont get as much money for the rematch with cotto.
are you serious dude? HBO and Showtime both turned down the cotto vs jenkins fight and on the other hand HBO came up with more money for margarito to broadcast margarito vs mosley. Are you lost?
Another thing if Margarito is such a draw why isn't this fight on PPV:lol1::lol1:
