    Arum on COTTO-MARGARITO PPV numbers

    Arum said the tracking of the pay-per-view results are encouraging As a result, Margarito will be able to get fights that wouldn’t have been remotely possible before.

    Arum said buys on DirecTV were tracking about 50 percent better than Cotto’s November win over Mosley, which wound up selling 350,000 units.

    “Something changed tonight,” Arum said. “This fight did tremendous numbers on pay-per-view. A great number of those who bought it were Mexicans, Mexican-Americans
    Good to see that Margarito can sell a fight. According to Arum Mexicans were the ones who made this fight successful.

    So if that's true then it did well over 400,000 buys, which would be awesome.

                if it was in vegas which is the west coast then of course mexicans bought the fight the most.

                    If they bought the fight on ppv, that means they werent able to attend. If they were unable to attend, what the **** does it matter where they fought? Are u telling me that if the fight was in MSG, the Mexicans would'nt have purchased the ppv?
