    And you base that on what?

    Margarito and Cotto in a double header did poor numbers in a free HBO fight.

    Margarito fought Cintron....that's a quality fight and yet the numbers were poor.

      People buy fights for the main event, it would be nice but it isn't mandatory.

          based on welterweight division popularity and this is a fight that both ricans and mexicans are gonna buy

              I base this on the promotion tour Bob Arum has planned.

              The tour will start in Mexico City and end in Puerto Rico. Domestically it may not be huge but internationally it might be bigger than any of these guys previous fights.

                You're right. Sometimes people do buy a CD for the Hot Song with the music video and end up disappointed with the rest of the Album.
