Cotto-Margarito Tickets Not as Hot as Vegas Temps

[Left2body]

I bet you Jack Nicholson is there. He's a boxing fan and knows what fights to show up for.

[flodistheshizle]

its not cotto or margarito's fault this is happening, vegas is not a boxing town like everybody thinks. the venues down there dont hold large capacity crowds like msg or staples center. pacman vs diaz had like 9k fans in a building that holds 12k, if you cant get 12k fans to see a fight in vegas its because were the fight is(vegas) not the fighters. put this fight in msg and you'll get 20k + easy or definitely more than 9k in staples center.

Sounds like people are making excuses for the low blow artist.Did you see Cotto`s number for his fight with Gomez which was in A.C.?

i was in vegas for the pac/diaz fight and it was seriously hot...I stayed in my hotel room during the day,and went out only at night

[QUOTE=jk4real;3777665]And folks doubted Floyd's drawing power? *looooooooooool*

Floyds drawing power wasnt based on him only...It had to do with who his opponent was, because quite frankly, he was and still is a ****in boring fighter unless he had a great fighter against him. Without De La Joto and Fatton, he wouldnt have sold out ****. He was lucky he fought against greater attractions than him in order for the fights to do well money wise.

As for me, I've never bought and never will by a floyd fight, **** him, he's too much of a ****y, pompous, wanksta who will never go down in history as one of the greatest UNLESS he fights people in his own division who are legit threats, i.e. Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Clottey etc....

I'll give him his props if he does, but i doubt it, he's a *****

They could fill only half the stadium, and get only 100k ppv buys, and it'll still be better than Floyd/Oscar.

is that a shot at the GREAT PBF????


fact is, if this fight goes down like its supposed to, it will be fight of the year, and probably better than ALL the fights the past few years............


stick to the topic.............prick

[Motofan]

Casual fans have no idea who either guy is. Nobody should be suprised by slow ticket sales.

no, ummm winning five titles in five different weight classes, and being undefeated will put him down as NOT THE GREATEST, but an all-time great.

it doesn't really matter what you think.................

clottey lost to margarito, margarito lost to paul williams, who lost to carlos quintana... the only person on your list of "mandatories" who actually deserves a shot is cotto, and floyd beats him.......

its funny, b/c you are probably one of those same fans who believe rjj should go down as the greatest...................

Speculation. He should get in the ring and prove it, instead of making excuses then.

i wonder if oscar would still fight cotto if this doesn't sell well
