    I understand the Floyd hate, but lets be real here. Floyd is a bigger draw than Cotto. You put Cotto vs an uknown and Floyd vs an uknown, you guys know Floyd would sell more.

    Another examle, no way in hell Cotto would have sold 900 against Hatton.

    Like I understand the Floyd hate and where its comin from. Floyd isnt the biggest draw as his fans say he is, but he IS a big draw.

          Mayweather would never ever sell over 17K tickets for a fight with an unknown guy like CLottey. NEVER!!!

              Yeah, you would think Manny Pacquiao has made about half the posters here rich recently with the way they brag about his money.

                Now look at you, your very own PPV and you have only 3,000 tickets sold?

                So who is the bigger draw right now Cotto or Mayweather???
                Cotto is not as big a draw as Mayweather. And whether you hate Mayweather or not, to say Cotto is the bigger draw clearly shows ignorance compounded by emotions rather than logic. I'm starting to feel like mostly teenagers post here swith these kind of threads.

                    so why isnt he drawing the crowd right now? I honestly think that Cotto vs Marquez wouldve sold a lot more tickets solely based on the PR vs Mexico feud

                      NObody wants to be robbed anymore man Mayweather doesnt bring the show or excitment to the sport. hes boring and doesnt bring any action to the ring.

                      THATS WHY HE ISNT A DRAW!
