If Cotto-Margarito Don't Do 500,000+ Buys, They Ain't Worthy Of Floyd

[AntonTheMeh]

You don't make sense. From what I've seen, every post you make is dedicated to discrediting Cotto and calling him overrated. You're saying that you want the world's best boxer to fight an overrated bum just to rub it into certain fan's faces?

How about you honestly answer 2501's question and state who is worthy enough of Floyd's attention and stop *****footing around?

come on dude obviously he has something to do with floyd winning.give the douchbag a break.

[Kenny Blankenship]

Oscar sold 27,000 tickets for his fight against Forbes in LA

Hatton has sold well over 40,000 for his fight against Lazcano in England

Let Mayweather fight either of those no-name guys ANYWHERE. Michigan, Vegas, New York, wherever you want.

He couldn't sell 15,000 seats for a fight against either of those guys.

Mayweather-Baldy didn't sell out.

Yes there's a lot of money in PPV. But it's easy to sit your ass on a couch and say what the hell I'll buy this piece of **** PPV.

But drag you ass off the couch and overpay (often in the hundreds of dollars) to see a mismatch live is a whole other story.

Bottom line is people won't pay good money to see Mayweather fight a stiff live. They won't for Cotto either, but here's the whole point.
Mayweather is a slightly bigger draw than Cotto right now, but not by much.

They could care less, they have a guaranteed, signed multi-million dollar contract and a schedule of games.


Boxing is more complicated then that.

I think youre the only one in this thread who understands the point of this post. Its not like I dont want to see Floyd fight either guy next but it is a business and you cant fight forever. Besides those who want to see Floyd fight either right away are selfish and say it would better the sport and bring more fans when in reality the bigger a fight is the more fans it brings, letting the other build more buzz makes the fight way bigger but selfish fans who call themselves real like to mirage themselves by saying such things because in reality they are thinking of themselves only.

Exactly

I want to see "Fraud Gayweather" fight Cotto or Marge just to see the haters EAT CHEESE LIKE THE **** THEY ARE..

I answered 2501's question honestly..

I want Floyd to fight the Cotto/Marge winner..

[Vladimir303]

Exactly. It's sad that they think money is more important than actual sport. Isnt Cotto/Mayweather the most interesting fight in boxing? Why isnt that good enough then?

You're right......lets all just talk about how great this fight is. Here I'll start:

Vladimir303: I can't wait until this fight.

Mutant: Yeah grat fight, I can't wait eithe.

Anonio: Man I wish this fight was tomorrow

Mutant2: Yeah me too, this is fight of the year.


How interesting.

[Pullcounter]

Seriously at least not now because it will prove that a bigger fight can be made if they wait even longer. Arum was on point when he said the average sports fan vaguely has heard of Cotto and even less for Margarito and with it being on PPV that won't help their popularity. Get your PPV's up if you trying to see Money.

I thought Cotto deserved a shot at Floyd before this fight with Margarito, but if this fight doesn't make money or good ppv buys Floyd will consider other more lucrative fights.

You're thinking smalltime talking about tickets. PPV is where the money is at.

Cotto can sell out MSG all he wants if the rest of the world isn't tuning in to watch it.

see - i want to take you seriously now because you didn't say jotto or hotto or strawberry margarita ... when you do that, its like watching carlos mencia - just lame joke after the other, namsayin'?

good for you for wanting to see that fight, now, how do you benefit from the business aspect of this like vlad and bhopreign?

[-Antonio-]

Why don't you create REAL FANS ONLY CLUB and then you all can discuss the more manly stuff like Blood & Guts drag out fights, courage, machismo and fights of the year.

And let us talk the reality of boxing, which is the business part.

The reality of boxing is what goes down in the ring. Period end of story.

If you think PPV buys and popularity should count more than that then you arent a real fan. At least you admit as much.
