Floyd is right, Cotto is not a draw.

[American Dream]

I agree..Pac is the draw, not Cotto..Cotto had nothing to do with it whatsoever..the 1.2 million is all because of Pac..I just wonder where the rest of those 500k were at when Pac fought Clottey and it drew in 700k...

[pinkivory]

If he is, then why is he fighting on regular HBO? Obviously Cotto cant hold numbers on his own. Pac deserves all credit sellin FirePower. But heres where Floyd contradicts himself AGAIN:


After Pac-Cotto sells 1.2M he states “ I didn’t have a dance partner.” (against JMM) --- Why the fuuck didn’t you fight Cotto, Floyd??? JMM aint a draw, Cotto aint a draw. OK, lets go for the LW and blow him up to 144 and cheat the midget on weight.

I went to MSG for Cotto vs. SSM, and trust me I did not go bc of SSM

[silkyjohnson]

Mayweather fought Marquez because Dinamita is Pac's biggest rival, and it was a TUNE-UP. Anyone who thought more than that, well...

And you forget the whole Arum-Mayweather relationship...

Miguel is a draw, much bigger attendance draw than Floyd and before Pacs lil run he was a bigger draw than him. Miguel is the only fighter in the world that could fight at a baseball stadium after coming off 2 recent losses. Could you imagine Pacs or Mayweathers fan base if they lost 2 times in the last 2 years.

It was a tuneup fight simpleton.

hmmm.. what about before marquez. floyd retired to keep himself from being pitted with dangerous WW.

[..WaRSpencE..]

Marquez drinking PISS is what made that PPV crack a Mill..besides that it would have done anywhere from 700k-850k buys..real talk

I knew it was meant to do over a million PPV buys once my non-boxing co-workers came up to me talking about "Pee Pee mouth"...and they NEVER mention **** about boxing..but that piss **** made it to ESPN..LMAO!..

With that said..Cotto can sell the **** out of the East Coast..and will bring strong numbers to the PPV buys..like someone mentioned..Pac-Clottey did 700k...Pac-Cotto did 1.2mil...you do the math..

Cotto was the last man standing at the time......

heres all i gotta say. REGULAR HBO. So what hes fighting a no-name foreman? Cotto is now a household name thanks to Pac. Pac has 3 losses and his fanbase is still here, if he gets another 2, guess what, nooned cares about his loss, people will still pay to see an exciting fight. People pay to see floyd lose and once thats achieved, floyd might as well retire. his "0" is the only thing that keeps him a draw.

You answered your question right there. Foreman is a no name, why would they put it on ppv? I'm sure if they did it would do on par numbers of when Judah fought Miguel, it did like 200,000. That's the same number Pac did versus Solis and when he wasn't fighting on regular HBO he was fighting against legends that carried the card(barerra/morales). Even when he was pitted against the great Marquez he did only 400,000 buys so don't give me this **** that Pac is this huge draw before DLH. DLH made that mother fucker.

Also, Pac has 3 L's, 2 of which no one even knew who he was and a third was against an instant great. You bet your ass he wouldn't be fighting in a baseball stadium if he had 2 losses in a close time period. Pacs "drawing" power is exaggerated here. Then again everything Pac does is freaking exaggerated here.

Cotto never wanted anything to do with Floyd. Not at 147, and sure as hell not at 140. There's a reason no proposals were never made.
