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

[Chunk..]

Not quite 850k is it?

Most of that was UK PPV's.

Carry on.

Correct, I agree with the fact that are lesser PPV attractions and lesser fighters than Floyd (in the case of Cotto anyway, Mosley is up for debate IMO but whatever)

The matter of fact is, Mayweather is all abut the money now and since beating Hatton will give him little legacy at all and only give him a paycheck. Pacquiao on the other hand will give him a paycheck and a name on his resume but personally I'm not fooled Pacquiao has yet to take punches above 130 and will crumble against Mayweather just under the sheer size and power Mayweather has over him, which means the only way for a paycheck AND real recognition is to fight a guy like Mosley/Cotto that will really booster his legacy to ATG levels.

They are all about money.

He fought an old as$ c class fighter Carlos Baldomir and his leftoevr Zab Judah.
How many PPV buys did they sell?
Exactly.
He retired hisway out of a fight with Cotto,Margaritoand Mosley.
And now he's coming out of retirement to fight a ****in super featherweight?
Floyd is a b*tch ass coward and the whole boxing world knows it.

Lol 850k is the U.S. buys, it did 1.2 in the U.K., carry on hater.

Again you sound very unknowledgable, Oscar preferred the fight at 154 so he could be bigger and stronger and its also why he wanted Floyd to wear certain gloves. The bigger Floyd is the slower he is which works in Oscar's favor.

Which goes back to my original point that Oscar couldn't make 147 in a competitive fashion anymore and so he didn't move down to try to take the WW lineal Championship from Floyd instead choosing Floyd to move up and be at a disadvantage...

Thank you for making my point for me...you are truly the easiest person to have an argument with on the internet... keep up the awesome work Champion.

because carlos baldomir was a career high payday for him u dumbass. he got 10 mill for baldomir (arum was allegedly offering 8 mill to fight margarito) PLUS he got 2 belts from baldomir, he was doing what any fighter should be trying to do it's called UNIFYING. he had 3 of the major belts after that. who did you want him to fight? Some other idiot for 2 mill and no belts? You lose

please dont cry.
Too bad Mosley, Cotto, Paul Williams would've made him less money.lol He retired and quit, because he didn't want to win a whole lot of money in the rematch with De La Hoya. How much money did he leave behind, but rather be at a wrestling show.

If he wants a title he should be fighting guys in his own weight.
Belts mean **** if you dont fight a real top fighter.

So he refused to make money and he wants to win titles beating up lower class opponnets. Please i know your just defending him to cover up, but not everyone is blind.

Either way you wash it, Hatton doesn't need Floyd to sell a fight in the US. The Pacquiao fight will prove that.

LOL ar 'Carry on hater'.

I don't think Floyd is a coward. He should've stayed at 140 though considering his natural weight.

His 147 and foray into 154 belts, we're against a guy who had exactly one good victory (against Judah- who was 2-1 in his last 3 fights one against Cosme Rivera and a split against Spinks) and a victory against a guy who was 1-3 in his last four fights yet was the 154 champ. DLH beat Mayorga but lost to Hop, I thought Sturm and Mosley, yet somehow miraculously he was the 154 champ.

Hatton doesn't need Floyd to sell a PPV fight in the US. Something you said he couldn't do without Floyd.

Who's wrong here?
