After Pacquiao retires, who else has the star appeal to attract monstrous PPV buys?

in the absence of a REAL PPV STAR... they should try to promote boxing differently, PPV Cards should start to have mutiple if not all fights with named figthers and significance...

Andre Ward hopefully

Most likely nobody which would be good thing for boxing because that would mean more good to great matches put on cable. Shit 90% of the PPV put on now are not worth the money so we as boxing fans should be glad that boxing won't have a big PPV attraction.

I'm honestly not sure I could ever see Cotto being a huge PPV attraction. Generally you need either: A great personality, a national backing (home country and those who belong to the ethnic group within the US), or a very exciting style. He may have the last two to an extent, but not quite at the level of a superstar. JuanMa on the other hand has all 3 (the 3rd will probably come in time) but his weight class may be a bit of a negative.

def. miguel cotto

the best bet is cotto. I think if it goes to the score cards, they will give it to Cotto (even if he really lost). Cotto is way too important for the sales in boxing IMO. Aside from that, i really hope Cotto wins (fairly), but i see it playing out just like the last fight. I hope im wrong, and Cotto has the stamina to last. edit: in regards to the Cotto vs Margarito fight

I don't know about Haye, what do you call a guy like him? He's not a one hit wonder because he hasn't even done that. Plus he said he's out before he's 31 and he is already 28. the unified crusierweight champ?

I doubt David haye's appeal, he's BRIT!

Probably David Haye is he defeats Klitschko. :D

Well at the end of the year, or early next year when Manny is done, Cotto could beat Margarito and become a big star ppv wise. If Berto beats any of the top 3 welterweights convincingly and goes after another the ppv could be big. If Juanma Lopez learns english and trashtalk he could be ok. Who knows really, all boxing fans knew Pacquiao, but I don't know if anyone expected him to become a household name. ________ CUMSHOT TITTY
