Cotto Will Make 15 million in His Fight With Pacquiao!

[WhoreUs]

why do mofos care so much about how much cotto gets paid? are you getting a cut of that check???

i feel you.

we shouldn't care.

but it's nice to hear boxers getting paid.



in the nba guys is making $5m a year sitting on the bench because he's 7 foot tall.

nice to see guys who risk their health and life for our entertainment get paid as well.

15 million is too high.

that's probably with a lot of incentives.



the split is what 60-40? 65-35?

$22-45m dollar purse?

i don't think so.

this fight won't even break 1m ppv buys.

i think it does 700K buys

[BOOMbip]

True!
Whats up with these fans...I'm a boxing fan, these guys are like women bragging about "what they man have"....lol

With respect Dondi.

Money is a big issue in all sports....

Sports center reports on all big signing...**** here in the U.S who the F cares about Real Madrid but they have been reporting on Ronaldo's big money contract.

I'm not saying....O wow Cotto is the man he's got millions.

But it is an impressive figure for both fighters...and to act like it doesn't matter is pretty silly.

If anything it shows how much bigger boxing is then any other combat sport...Money talks as most say...and making your competitors look like small time peanuts...is good for the sport...no doubt.

Cotto Stans are hypocrites. They **** on Floyd for it but praise their god Cotto.

You butthurt?

i think it does 700K buys

i think is gonna do more..

since the FTA SATTELITE tv. .isnt working anymore... at least here in PR.. dont know about the states..


ppl with FTA were use to get all the PPV events for free..

now that is not working anymore since the DIGITAL change on the tv..

ppl are going to be obligate to BUY this one...

im expecting the ppv to be really close to a million

[Mr.Fantastic]

You butthurt?

Why should I?? I don't see a penny of that money idiot.

[WhoreUs]

i think it does 700K buys

that's a good sell.

i think uncle bob will lose money on this fight.

he overpaid i think.



but......uncle bob knows he'll make the money back in the long run because this sets up big fights down the road plus he got cotto to resign for 2 years.

Really Mak? Those are low expectations. Less than the Hatton fight domestically?

I think it'll do 850-900K.

he did overpay...that's what happens when you're dealing with two marquee guys with leverage on both sides....cotto's free agency pending, and manny killing the fight by saying its at 140-143
