It's FIGHT WEEK...where is the hype for Cotto/Canelo?!!

Ive actually been hearing alot of casuals talking about the fight at various places. Thats a good sign.

even on this site, i dont get a sense of buzz...i expected this place to be a war zone but motherfvckers talk more about Rousey or what Broner is up to than the fight :lol1: so true. The site seems kinda slow too. We need the peasant crusher to get things started

Im from Mexico, do anyone know how can i buy the PPV online? i dont want to watch the fight on free TV, i prefer HBO Broadcast :boxing: Txs anyway

I don't even think I have seen one commercial for this fight, I didn't watch any TNT basketball though so there should have been some there. Looking forward to it though. I've actually seen a bunch of them on the TV's at the gym I go to. Not sure what channel it is, maybe ESPN, but I know that I've sen at least one commercial for it every night I'm there.

Cause they're floyds leftovers. Fighting for second best

Originally fighting for the middleweight title at 155 pounds, that's the first mistake. Then Cotto with this WBC bullshiet crushed some of the intrigue. Above all, Pac-May likely ruined most PPV values for the next 3 years or so.

Iono I saw a lot of repeated segments on the fight on ESPN in the morning And have heard about it on Spanish radio And a lot of Hispanic FB have posted the face off

I have barely seen anything on mainstream media regarding the fight. For a fight that people were predicting would do at least 1 million PPV buys there is absolutely zero buzz for this fight and we are two days away! Did the Mayweather/Pac fight turn the casuals/mainstream off that much?:grumble: You are wrongly assuming that casual fans guide/influence the media and their focus, when the truth is the other way around. Maybe Cotto/Alvarez didn't pay enough or don't have the connections

It's true. I have seen little to no promotion for this fight.

What ya talking about?! I saw a huge billboard in the highway for it, a beautiful Hi-Res photo of both captioned "Battle Of Gennadys Sons".

Cotto is old and Canelo sucks. It's a nice fight but the lack of hype is justified I think.

I have PR friends and they don't really care about this fight I was kind of shocked I thought this was the biggest fight for the Latino Community Perhaps there's more buzz in the Mexican community because it seems that Canelo has a lot of support and stake riding on this one.

Hype really aint there. It's ok though. DLH did his best by trying to bring hype into the equation with his 1.5 mil, floyd, rousey cover talks but it just isn't happening. I just want a good fight. I still haven't picked who I'm going for in this one

You must not have any Latino friends. I have PR friends and they don't really care about this fight I was kind of shocked I thought this was the biggest fight for the Latino Community

Did the Mayweather/Pac fight turn the casuals/mainstream off that much?:grumble: Maybe it's because the fight has been unrelentingly positioned as Puerto Rico vs. Mexico, so who else really cares? The media in those markets are (I assume) going bat***** crazy right now. But I'm sure many "mainstream" media in the states probably assume the fight is mainly only for those groups.
