Cotto-Cintron Possible, Cotto-Judah Numbers

[No-mas-tias]

Dude how old is Cotto, how many years does Mayweather Jr. have in this business. You can't compare both of them, that's ******.

Cotto is only fighting top level fighters unlike mayweather...Cotto will be a Hall of Famer sometime in the future if he fights margarito than fight Cintron, and than mosley... that pretty much says it all.

Margarito-Cintron did fewer than 30k buys. Margarito is not a draw...

that was back then and after that fight Margarito's name has been up in the mix and he's gettying known with the Mexican and spanish speacking fans, just the other day i seen a Coll Spanish Margarito Gatorade comercial.

225 buys isnt that bad for this fight.

But Arum should put Cotto up against the winner of Tony v Williams.

Floyds 30, Cotto is 26.

Wow, a lot of sensationalizing in this thread on both sides...I must say.

Like Borikua said, Floyd wasn't headlining PPVs when he was 26 years old...if he was then someone correct me. With Cotto's style, some solid direction in his career and good promotion, he could be a big draw when he's 30 years old. I think that is entirely conceivable.

Yessir.

You guys are missing the point. So far Cotto is nothing like Tito. He has to take these fights if he wants to make any money at all. If he fought Mathysee then he would get paid like a C rated fighter. He hasnt been nowhere near the draw that people make him out to be. Lets just hope that the Zab fight turned that around or else Floyd would really try to pimp him at the table

So I guess that extending his contract with Top Rank and getting a guaranteed minimum per fight of $2,000,000.00 is not good money for a 26 years old kid, is it? That's not including PPV sales, gate revenues, sopnsorship revenues, etc. For a C rated fighter it's good money I think.

Mayweather could not even sell in his hometown until 4 maybe 5 fights ago, same time frame he started headlining PPV events, and still a lot of people just buy his PPV's to see him lose cause all of his fights are worse than a soap opera at noon.

So Mayweather isn't a draw, but he did more buys with Baldomir than Cotto-Judah? Some people on this site are truly delusional...

mayweather who da hell is mayweather?
