For all my fellow Ricans living on the island the fight will be on PPV. So don't tune in to showtime on Dec 1 because it will be blacked out.

So how much is this gonna be on PPV in PR? If it's gonna be 50-60 bucks then that's fked up. Cotto is screwing his own people.

Si tu crees que Cotto no sabe o sabia que la pelea hiba en PPV pa Puerto Rico, simplemente no conoces a Cotto y segundo estas bn ciego. Tu crees que el firma un contrato sin leerlo so lo por que Gaby le dice firma? Cotto esta bn finacieramente pq el no se deja cojer de pendejo. El sabia lo que habia con showtimw y el PPV pa PR.
Y como dijo jtcs no es tanto el dinero, es la falta de respeto y la falta de principios.
By the way, the card is a whack ass card, they can give you 15 fights for that $49.99 and is still not justyfiable. :lame:
Yo no digo que el no lo sabia pero el no lo negoceo, no fue su idea de hacer el evento PPV.
But anyway yes the card aint that good but there are some nice young PR fighters on the card like Velez and Jorge Melendez.
Que principios? Tu te crees que Cotto va a negocear todo minimo detalle? Para que tu crees que el tiene a Gaby? Cotto como te dije elige el oponente y acepta la bolsa pero tu crees que el dijo "Vamos a poner la pelea en PPV para sacar mas chavos"? No, esto es mas de Showtime que quiere sacarle extra dinero a la cartelera ya que le tuvieron que pagar a Cotto una bolsa bastante grande y pues Gaby no se iva a negar pq es un buen negocio.Y si quisieran joder pq pusieron 7 peleas en el PPV? Ellos sabian q no era justo y por eso te vas a llevar 7 peleas.

I don't see why you guys are so mad, this is common all around the world. UK or USA fighters have a fight on PPV in their home country, and it's broadcasted on free TV or regular cable everywhere else in the world. It's a really common business model.
Bingo! This is common in Europe and you never see their fans complaining.
Tu crees que esto es por criticar a Cotto? Hay un grupo grande de gente que lo odia, pero esto tiene que ver con principios. Esa excusa de Gaby no se la va a creer nadie. El es su propio jefe. Si Showtime no podia pagarle mas de $4 millones no trates de sacarnos el jugo a nosotros nada mas. Que use sus creedenciales en el resto de EU para sacar su bolsa. I cant believe you are fighting for him like this. Unless you are the guy that got his tattoo and show it to the newspaper

De que carajos tu hablas? Esto no tiene que ver con el maldito mantengo de los gringos. WTF is wrong with you? Since when we have to pay for special events that are part of the regular Showtime program? There is no excuse for this. For us that work hard every day is not about the money, it is about the principles.
Hay que ser bien mamon para apoyar esto.

^Exactamente.
Yo no voy a pagar por algo que es gratis en los EU. Nosotros somos la gente de el, aqui es donde el nacio y vive, y solamente nos va a cobrar a nosotros, la gente Puertoriquenia?
Claro que estamos enojados.
Todavia soy fan de Cotto y claro que todavia lo voy a apoyar contra Trout, but I'm dissapointed in him.
I said it once and I said it again, this is a scumbag move and a spit in the face to PR fans!!
Anybody buying this ****ty ass card is an idiot!!
By the way, Im still a fan of the guy, but this is wrong and it has to be said.
Estoy de acuerdo con esto en "bold".
Pregunta, para las personas que tienen Showtime en PR, la pelea es gratuita o no? Es solo PPV en Dish? SI?
Es showtime PPV, el canal regular de showtime va a estar blackout!!
Esto es una pu~alada y una bofetada a los fanaticos puertorrique~os
Vivo en Puerto Rico pero estan siendo injustos con Cotto como siempre. Todo lo q el hombre hace lo critican. Primero es q no sonrie y no es como Tito y ahora esto. El no nos debe nada y creeme q esto es mas de Showtime y Gaby q de Cotto. Gaby es el q negocea las peleas y Cotto accepta los oponentea y la bolsa pero detalles como estos no tienen nada q ver con el.
This is some bullshit!!!! Cotto is in charge and knows almost every detail of his bussines. So this Cotto doenst know or is not involed is pure nonsense.

Papa,
Si tienes razon que quizas estuve fuera de lugar con mis comentarios. Por eso me disculpo. Pero la verdad es esa.
A lo de parte de la pelea de Cotto, es lo que es. Si Showtime, Miguel y quien sea quieren cobrar pues el que decea pagar paga, y el que no, NO.
Its what its.

Here is the PROBLEM, this is what is "up" with the People of Puerto Rico.
Puertoricans have become of a people of "give me". They want everything for free, goddarn social parasites!
Dont get me wrong this is NOT just about the fugging fight, this is about everything in PR!
People dont want to work, they want "cupones", they want free medicare, free phones, free this and that. It makes me sick!
Im OVERLY PROUD of bring Puertorican, and I'm very proud of my heritage but I cant stand the evolution of the puertorican people. We went from hard working individuals to a give it to me free. Drugs, crime, murders, and all they other issues that overwelm the island today are just BS!
They want to be like in the movies, the youth are gansters wana-be, no respect, if you pack a gun that makes you get respect! Fugg them!
I carry a gun, legally carry and I dont go out looking for trouble! No way I can establish my self in the island. I have lived in the USA for the last 25 years! Served in the Army for 22 of those and I'm happy as hell in San Antonio Texas!
I can see the anger since the fight its free in most of the US, and the price is overly expensive (I consider somewhere at $19.95 for non-HD and $24.99 for HD more along the lines).
Either way, boxing is a profesional sport and people are in there to make money. I do not belive that it was Cotto's desicion to charge PPV to Puertoricans and its more of the buisness side of showtime.
Hell, I'm in Bahrain so Ill watch it via the AFN Network!
Support your boxer! Cotto is the ONLY one fighithing the hard fights people!
War Cotto!

OUCH ! :rofl:
Excellent post !
This is the problem with fighters promoting their own cards. What's the headliner's incentive to put together a solid card when the budget for the entire card depends on how much you yourself (Cotto) want to spend promoting it? It's like Floyd's terrible undercards. Same here, Cotto put together a terrible undercard so what's the incentive for a viewer to pay up? What's Miguel's incentive to have another A lister? He has no incentive because part of the budget would go to pay the A lister on the undercard. Bad business decision by Miguel. Granted he's doing a solid job of maximizing his take home against a lesser known opponent like Trout but you don't do that off the backs of the people that support you 100%.
But whatever, obviously the writing is on the wall and Miguel knows it. He's trying to set himself up with a golden parachute because the end is very near. He's just about ready to call it a career. If he hasn't beaten Manny or Floyd by now then it's most likely never happening so might as well set up that retirement fund before its too late.
