With just the main events I think it would be a no brainer about which PPV would see better. I think JMM/Mayweather is an A draw and B draw where PAc/Cotto is to A draws making the Cotto/Pac fight a more profitable PPV. Until I look deeper and see Juarez/John and Hatton/Judah matched on the undercard of Mayweather/JMM. Now you are attracting boxing fans from every region and class to watch a PPV just to see their fighter. Smart tactic on Mayweather's part really because when he goes to negotiate with Pac for the mega fight his PPV numbers will be elevated due to the draw of Hatton from England and Judah still has some PPV appeal to him especially when matched with a name like Hatton. Not to mention the Juarez/John rematch will attract boxing purist. I still think Pac/Cotto may outsell Mayweather/JMM but Arum needs to make sure he beefs up the undercard a little to protect his future negotiating power against Floyd.
