Cotto-Canelo PPV one million sales

I think maybe 900K.

Id expect something around the 800k mark. Still a good number though.

If neither of them lose a fight before it happens then I think it would. It seems like a May 5th type of fight but it's a big seller anytime.

Not yet:boxing:

Nah 500 K - 700K

Canelo isn't ready...

Are you ppl kidding me?? Sure Canelo may still be a growing brand, but he is already a HUGE draw in Mexico!! And Cotto has always been very popular amongst Mexican fans and of course he's gonna have PR fans in the palm of his hand! Book this match, and stage it in Mexico!! :D One can dream right?

no way maybe if it's 40 bucks it would be close to that if it's 25 bucks they've got a shot

nah.....maybe up to 900k, but even that is being optimistic. I have to say somewhere around 700k. If canelo learns english overnight, then there's a shot at 1 mil.

no way, it wouldnt crack 1 mil. i find it funny that ppl think its that easy to crack 1 mil. neither of these guys have the following to do it. not yet.

I dont know if you guys noticed..but the last few fights that floyd has had canelo has been in the undercard. NOBODY cares about floyd..the only reason the ppv buy are high is because of canelo. MEXICANS are the majority in boxing, they dont like watching guys running around. Lets see how many buys floyd will have wothout a MEXICAN on his card. CANELO VS COTTO will EASILY do 1.5 mil. CANELO has a whole country behind him, floyd has a few hundred thousand ppl.

half a million

It could get close if promoted the correct way. It really doesn't need to do a million to be very impressive anyways just getting fairly close would be a huge success. What would they lay out in guerentess maybe 16 million 8 for each. Or 10 for Cotto and 6 for Canelo or whatever 750k*65=48,750,000 750k*55=41,250,000 So in just PPV revenue it will be between those number probably closer to the top one because who would buy in sd. Split the difference and call it 45 million in just PPV revenue, so even if the fighters get 45% of that money that would be over 20 million easily covering their guerentees without even looking at other revenue

Regardless of the outcome of the fight Puerto Rico vs Mexico could be hyped. Do you think this would do 1 million + buys? "2 millions PPV" - Uncle Schaeffa

Not a chance right now. Once Canelo picks-up more English he will 2x in popularity here in the US....people might know who he is, but once he can make the connection with American's with language he will be PPV ready

No way. They're huge in their respective countries but not that popular in the U.S.

I don't think it would, not right now. Maybe if Alvarez fought Mayweather at some point and Cotto was still winning. Pac and Floyd have set the bar too high, 1 million buy PPVs are incredibly rare and hard to do.

Kirkland's injured, Vanes won't fight Lara for the eliminator and they won't go for him off the bat... either fight Cotto or bum it up

I say 600-700K at the most. no more than 800k. Cotto's never done more than 600k without floyd/manny and canelo has never headlined.

If Cotto vs Margarito can't do 1 million, I don't think this can. Canelo has way more interest to casual fans than Margarito. Especially after he just took a beating from Pac-Man.
