With 24/7 I think Pacquiao-Bradley does better than Pacquiao-Cotto

No. Bradley doesn't have much of a fan base. I'm from Southern California and he's not a star out in Southern California. He'd become a star if he were to beat Pacquiao, but Cotto is already a star.

yea no way would it do more.

i dont think so ... cotto may not have much a personality btu he more than makes up for it in the ring ... bradley's a solid fighter but not the most compelling guy in or out of the ring imo and not much of a fanbase either

When I first read this thread I went "whos bradley". Thats why it doesnt do better.

ARE you high? NO ONE outside hardcores even knows who Bradley is. Think about it Bradley won his belt in the U.K. and beat Holt in Canada he doesn't have a fan base. Cotto is well know to P.R. fans and a few casual fans know him. Cotto-Pac would do a good PPV buy rate!

It won't happen, but I think with a 24/7 that Pacquiao-Bradley does better than Pacquiao-Cotto. To the casual fan watching 24/7, Bradley will come across as a more exciting opponent. Bradley has a great personality and I think people would really become a fan of his quickly. Cotto is defiantly not the world's most likable guy and I don't care what anyone says, he isn't that big of a name. On the big stage he won a close decision to Mosley and than lost to Margarito, even if he did cheat. It would also be better for Pac to stay at 140.

Thoughts?

I don'tthink so. Puerto Ricans and Mexicans get better PPV numbers....its pretty much a fact except for heavyweights.

He's never even fougth on HBO before.
