Why was Margo vs Mosley non ppv? Yet Cotto + Pavlik was PPV?

[-Antonio-]

I would have been so pissed if I paid 45 for this. I'm a fan of both fighters, but this PPV was an absolute rip off.

Because HBO was willing to put up $4 million for Margarito-Mosley and took a pass on the Top Rank double. Showtime also passed on the Top Rank double. I heard the price tag for the Top Rank double was also $4 million. I can't blame either network for passing.

Youre still alive?

Wrong buddy. 3mills is the less Arum can Pay Cotto, for any fight. it doesnt matter the opponent or if is on HB or PPV or whatever!!!!!!!!!!!!

the guy you are talking to is an insider, id take his word over anyones.

HBO/Showtime passed on this card and so did plenty of Boxing fans, I'm glad they passed. They should be spending money on good cards with competetive bouts, this card was **** since the first day it was signed and all the Boxing fans that paid for it I'm sure agree.

Maybe Cotto isnt the ppv star he was drawn out to be.
