Cotto-Marg did 400K. PR vs. Mexico... the biggest rivalry in boxing. And you somehow think that Cotto, after being submitted in front of America, losing to Clottey, and by solely beating up bums is going to draw all of PR back to him for a catchweight fight vs. a midget everyone thinks is going to beat him.
Sit down. Just because Boxing Scene has this agenda of talking up Cotto/Pac and talking down May/Marquez doesn't mean that the random Joe on the streets gives a fuck.
May/Marquez will come a lot closer to Cotto/Pac than any of you realize. I will have a good laugh to myself after that.
i agree, i think marq / may would be close to pac - cotto
pac and may i think has the same draw while cotto got a little edge on marquez.
the thing is mayweather and pac is always on PPV while cotto and marquez are sometimes on free TV
yes it will......no doubt about it.....
if Hatton Pac did 850k on US ppv, I dont see why it would not as Cotto would be carrying the Hispanic viewers....
Whe are in a recession so it is doubtful some people can dish out 50 to 60 bucks + their monthly cable bill.
My bill in november will be around $275 dollars with the PPV.
^ co-sign.
Cotto's fan base alone in NYC and the whole east coast would probably bring 500k, and then you have all the Flips in the west coast not to mention in the Tri-State area in the east coast. So yeah, over 1 mil is a huge possibility.
Pacman vs Hatton made around 800,000 to 850,000 PPV buys do you guys think with Cotto as his opponent Manny will be able to break 1million?
thats possible but given the shitty economy its more likely what it wont

Yes it will...

This is highly possible because Pacman already cut into the British market, US via new york and puerto rico including mexico.
pi, mexico, pr, both coasts + the buzz around celebrities backing up their fighters are going to make it easily do 1mil.
i went to the jersey shore and wanted to see what the buzz would be by wearing my "team pac" tshirt and it wasn't just filipinos that were saying "pac is going to ruin cotto". surprised how many different ethnicitys even spanish people were rooting on PAC as well.
I think it'll do around the same as Pac-Hatton. In the 850K range.
Although, Pac keeps getting bigger and bigger, and this is hyped as an all action fight. Plus Cotto brings a lot of east coast buys.
It wouldn't shock me if it did over a mill.
