having loyal fans and having people who are willing to pay 50 dollars to see you fight are two different things.

If Cotto is ranked p4p #1 by the time this happens, maybe.

If Cotto beat Mayweather then fought Oscar. Biggest fight ever.

DLH/Mayweather = highest grossing fight in boxing history. Miguel is barely known and Puerto rico is tiny. No way... It would probably do what DLH/Mayorga did.

it would be close...but it was DLH vs the #1 P4P fighter in the world

Absolutely...

This will be marketed as DLH's revange for the Tito loss... some **** like that... another PR / Mexico rivalry
The promoters will have a way of putting a spin on it! Besides DLH will always make more sales in any megafight

No, simply because Mayweather is much more known in the US than Cotto is. Most people in the US don't know of Cotto but most have atleast heard of Mayweather.

Even though Cotto has an obviously big following in PR, you would be suprised as to how few people really know about him or even talk about him in the US.
