    50-50 or no fight. Cotto is a huge draw in NY.

      70-30 is too much. Pac has been on PPV longer, but Cotto has the biggest PPV between them without one of the mega draws(DLH and Hatton). But Pac is the biggest draw in the sport at this point and deserves the lions share. Cotto will pull his weight though.

      I think this fight will do as much as the Hatton fight.
      He's only counting US numbers so the Hatton fight is fair game. He's not really a De La Hoya-esque mega-draw outside of Britain

      Pacquiao will have been responsible for most of the buys there

          After cominf off a KO and a life and death situation against Clottey how does he deserve a 50-50 split against the best P4P fighter in the world?

          You're dumb.

            I say 60-40. I don't really care about what their ppv history is. Pacquiao is the hottest thing in boxing right now, but Cotto brings a lot to the table.

                The fight is not in NY, and NY represents a very small percentage of ppv buys.

                  its gotta be 60-40 split at least cause cotto is a very good and popular fighter. maybe not as big as pacman right now but he is still big and he has fought many big ppv fights. pac only really has the DLH fight under his belt which was huge because i mean comon its de la hoya.

                    It should be 60-40 but more than likely it'll be 65-35. I really don't give a **** about the split, I just want to see this fight.

                      pac should get 70/30 because he's taking all the risk. cotto will only have to drop 1 lbs from since the clottey fight.
