      Even so it was anVERY enthusiastic crowd and it was angreat night at the fights

      I just think This confirms that he is just a star, and not yet a superstar

      And also u guys are underaring cotton performance tonight

      He just completely broke down and destroyed a guy who had never been stopped and had hung tough with big middleweights. Excellent job by cotton, he is truly an ezceptio al fighter
      And People want this fellow who cant fill an arena to fight Mayweather?

      Are people serious,Cotto needs to learn how to sell fights ,he is a good fighter but not good from a business perspective.

          Lets be real,Cotto struggles to sell fights
          He struggled even with Zab Judah ,that wasnt a sell out
          Mosley wasnt a sell out either,now if you cant sell out a fight when you are fighting Judah then you are a nobody.

            Cotto-Judah wasnt a sell out? They had to open up another section of Madison Square Garden so more people could go. It wasnt only a sell out, but actually a record breaking crowd. Id say 85-90% of the crowd was Cotto supporters too. I was there, here is some pics of the crowd.

            Cotto-Mosley also did very well. And about 10,000 people were there last night, thats not too bad. Especially considering it was a fight vs Gomez. Mayweather only sells tickets when he fights people who sell tickets. Bg crowd aganst Hatton, Mayweather hometown, yet EVERYONE was rooting for Hatton. Booing Mayweather in his hometown.

                They're thinking of excuses for Floyd to use next.

                  What the **** with his Floyd fanboys.. **** as ****... Floyd does not sell fights, Oscar and Hatton are the reason.. Look at the fights, everyone in the arena is cheering for Hatton and Oscar..

                  FLOYD BOYS looks like Clown trying to defend Floyd fighting A shot Oscar De La Hoya..

                  COTTO-MARGARITO IS THE BEST FIGHT IN THE WORLD..

                  Now they have an excuse for Floyd not fighting a 147 for the last 3 years and just having rematches with a SHOT Oscar and Next year rematch with Hatton only.. Suck his ****..

                    So you think that bunch went to see Hatton,are you kidding?
                    How many people went to see Hatton fighting Collazo?
                    Hatton fought Castillo how come only 7500 people went there?
                    When he fought Juan Urango there werent that many.
                    When he finally fought Floyd,all the thieves in manchester stopped stealing the whole night because everyone was watching floyd.No crimes were recorded that night

                    On another note you do mention that Floyd only sells when he's fighting another star,so can you blame him for not fighting Cotto.Seeing Cotto's fights dont sell well.DOnt you think you ought to applaud Floyd for being a shred business man

                      not saying mayweather is right or anything like that
                      that's weird.

                      i thought all the PR's would drive down. wasn't it in atlantic city? ****! they'd drive down there to put down a hand of blackjack! that doesn't sound right.
