Who is the bigger draw, Hatton or Cotto?

[Parody]

The question is who is the bigger draw in BOXING, not who is the bigger draw in the states!

Come on man, play the game LOL.

Hey everything revolves around the US and A.

USA!!! USA!!! USA!!!

much as 45000 tickets were SOLD in the FIRST DAY with his fight with Lazcano.

thats POST mayweather though man.

Not 30,000, but it'd be enough sell sell out any fighting venue in Vegas IMO.

Am going to flip that question back to you:

Lets just say Cotto had a big fight in Europe, how many of his fans do you think would make the trip?

Not many because your judging this unfairly.. Cotto has never had the exposrue had from the 24/7 show and the excellent marketing from GBP or the Mayweather fight.

thats pretty much a cop out because we always only go by US stats. im just being fair and balanced.

In all honesty.. Since we are talking about fighting in America, what does the UK matter really in this convo?
That's like asking who would sell more in Puerto Rico, Hatton or Cotto?

this question is only valid PRE Mayweather. Who was the bigger draw in the states BEFORE Hatton fought mayweather. Its unfair to make this kind of distinction now that Hatton got his own 24/7 show and a shot at Mayweather. Because to be honest, if 30K people flew from the UK to watch Hatton, if 900,000 K bought the PPV event in the UK to watch hatton, then the biggest draw in the sport currently IS Hatton?

My point still stands, the fight would not have taken place if Hatton wasn't popular in the UK. The fight took place because Mayweather and his people knew he could pull in major numbers in Britain. Even pre-Mayweather the man had been on every chat show in the country and everyone knew who he was. If Cotto had the same pull then i'm sure Mayweather would fight him, why wouldn't he?

Hatton is the bigger draw overall.

But it just makes those people like Horus look ****** because Hatton's success in UK has no impact on his PPV buys in the U.S. which is the only money Floyd is seeing.

Not that it should matter...

But if Floyd isnt making any of that money why does it matter?

Who says Floyd isn't making any of that money?
