      The only fight of his thats could do over 1 million buys is his fight with Floyd mayweather if they ever meet.

      But, back to the topic, TITO was so popular BECAUSE he never learned english. It was a sign of loyalty to his native homeland and his people LOVED that.

        ummmmm no thats the reason why he never became OSCAR level son.

        think of the reverse. u think OSCAR would be as famous as he is today if he couldnt speak english but tito could??? ****kkkkkkkk NO!

        OSCAR became what he is cuz of his good **** looks and his marketability=ENGLISH son.

          Even if Tito could speak english he would never have reached De la Hoya fame because the biggest fact of it all is that De la Hoya won a olympic gold medal for AMERICA. Second De la Hoya can pass for damn near white which makes him even more acceptable. This list can go on forever. Tito never even got that much more famous after he beat De la Hoya.

            thats NOT what i said tho bro.

            i said lets play the reverse that OSCAR would NOT speak english at all.

            u think he'd still be as big of a star as he is today?

            the answer is clearly NOT.

              He wont. Cotto's too shy, too reserved. Even if his English was perfect, he just isn't made for the spotlight. Tito worked the crowd, smiled, bumped his chest like they said in the countdown. After every knockdown he'd run to the ring post jump up and pose to the crowd. He was a showman. Cotto is not, and he doesn't have to be.

                lol dude, im not even stating my opinion. its a FACT that by not learning english, Tito was even more adored and even more famous in Puerto Rico. FACT, not my opinion.

                Ask any of the Sports writers from Puerto Rico, or read their articles on the topic from google or something. The bring it up all the time. Thye love him for that

                  It would have made him a pretty big star, i've never really heard the guy speak english.

                    before each fight oscar went on the tonight show with jay leno to promote/hype his upcoming fight for the weekend.

                    you know why tito never went on the tonight show to hype/promote his fights? because he couldnt speak ENGLISH!

                    trust me the english factor is way more HUGE than you'd like to admit

                      At this stage of Cotto's career Tito already had a huge following and had won a couple belts, I highly doubt that.
