    Has Margarito ever headlinead a PPV?

    I seen a comment on here referring to Tony as a "SUPER" WW, but I cant recall him fighting on PPV ever. I watched all his fights on HBO. Up until the cotto win the "casual" boxing fan had no clue who he was, and frankly most still dont. Boxing fans know him, but anyother excuse why he gets the Pac fight over evryone else, other than Arum magic, is ridiculous... Politics as usual

    Really? Sure he wasn't a PPV attraction, but to me he was considered the most dangerous WW in the world back in 2006. I mean his wins over Cintron were just as impressive. He also gave Paul Williams all he could handle.

      Cotto fight was on PPV and it sold almost 500k with little or no real promotional push from HBO.

      He also sold more seats at Staples Center than anyone in history including the L.A Lakers.

      Choke on that.

            maybe that comment of him being a "super welterweight" was referring to the 154 weight class, also known as junior middleweight

            just a thought

              They refer to him as a super welterweight because it's a weight class, not because he's actually "super".

              Are you new?

              You mentioned the Cotto win which was PPV BTW.

                  Wait, he doesn't know the Cotto fight was on PPV? lol I thought he was saying aside from the Cotto fight he wasn't, which is also false as the above poster pointed out.

                    Cotto - Margarito, Cotto was the headline not Margarito.

                    Margarito did headline PPV fight, and he done 30k buys
