    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.
    Apparetly he isnt anymore if he cant sell Marquez. were talking TICKET SALES in HIS HOMETOWN!

    Cotto isnt from New York yet there are a lot of PRS there and he sold much more in the beginning weeks of sales.

    Its all about what comes to the ring. UFC sells cause they get dirty.

    Cotto gets dirty
    Pacquiao gets Dirty
    Mosley gets dirty
    Margarito gets as dirty as they come!

    They sell because people are willing to buy that fight and sit down to watch an action packed night!

        That fight would not have done 800,000 buys if Hatton had been fighting Luis Collazo.If you're ignorant enough to think otherwise, that's saying something. Case and point: 2000 fans came from Briton to see the Hatton-Collazo fight. 20,000 came to the US for Hatton -Mayweather. If you think only Hatton made that PPV(his first) that's sheer ******ity on your part. It takes two to make a super fight and your immaturity on the subject doesn't change that.

          But the question is, who is the bigger draw, Cotto or Floyd?

          Hatton/Mayweather may have been more Hatton, but Floyd had a lot to do with the sales. More so than what Cotto would have contributed.

              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???
              I think Cotto vs. JMM wouldn`t sell either. Right now I think PBF would still be a bigger draw, given a better match-up, added to the fact that peeps would want to see if he still fights the same, and because of his 0.

                    Cotto's a better ticket-seller but Floyd will sell more PPV

                      In terms of ticket sales, Cotto. In terms of PPV buys, Mayweather.
