I agree that Cotto is a draw... The Garden is a Madhouse when he fights there... Arum needs to bring him back to the Garden.. The PR Parade, New York City, and Cotto have a great money making relationship... Manny draws very well here and is on every TV in the Phillipines... But to say Manny is not a big draw is a stretch... If he isn't a big draw who is???? Better yet, there is only ONE dude who can sell more than him... Manny's style and heart make for a great watch and is the reason why he has such a huge passionate following...

Manny is a draw but not the way that dude is saying he is. Manny/Cotto did 1.25 million buys and then Mannys next fight with Clottey did 700,000. This guy is saying Miguel is worth only 250,000 buys meaning Manny did a million in their fight. Manny isn't even close to a million buy fighter, as we seen in the Clottey fight.I agree that Cotto is a draw... The Garden is a Madhouse when he fights there...

Anyone saying Cotto is ducking Martinez by avenging his losses is a complete idiot. All you guys say is "OMG Marg didn't use wraps he just beat the **** out of Cotto and now he is his b*tch." Ok, fine then what is the problem with Cotto getting his ass kicked again? This is the next best fight for Cotto, Sergio is a great fighter but the guy is NOT a draw, not even close. Boxing is a business and if someone came to me and said I could get my revenge on Margarito, the guy who took my 0, illegally as well for 10 million or face Martinez for 2 million I'm pretty sure I know the choice we all would make.
As far as the Manny vs Martinez thing at 154, anyone saying that Manny is ducking as well is either a ***** or an idiot, basically the same thing. Manny after he fought Margarito, relinquished his title and said I can't fight at 154 its too big for me. This was before Sergio put PWill to sleep and really before Sergio became a "star" which he isn't yet once again. A great fighter doesn't make you star, a star is someone who has actually been on PPV, or has 10,000 seats to fill up for a fight. Sergio hasn't had that many in his past two fights, its sad really seeing this guy calling out Manny (which isn't the sad part.) Its the fact that people, expect Manny to answer every challenge to prove he is the best while Floyd can simply run his mouth, saying he is and its the truth.Comment

I am under the impression that Cotto wants to go out on his shield, and leave it all in the ring. Idk what to expect from a Margarito rematch, cuz both fighters have taken some beatings. They are on the same page now imo. I don't mind watching a Margarito rematch, but not with Pacquiao, cuz I'm not sure if he can be efficient at 147 again, and Pac can't even make 150, so 154 is definitely out of the book. I agree with others saying he should fight Berto, Canelo, Wolak, etc. I wouldn't even opposed to a Mosley rematch, depending on how Shane-Pac goes. If it's a competitive fight where Shane wins some rounds, then why not?Comment

I TOTALLY agree with you... I was actually disagreeing with him... Cotto is easily the third best draw in boxing... Like I said... PR Parade, New York City, MSG, Cotto all have chemistry.... Hatton v Pacman only did 850,000... So enough of that nonsense..Manny is a draw but not the way that dude is saying he is. Manny/Cotto did 1.25 million buys and then Mannys next fight with Clottey did 700,000. This guy is saying Miguel is worth only 250,000 buys meaning Manny did a million in their fight. Manny isn't even close to a million buy fighter, as we seen in the Clottey fight.Comment

700K buys fighting an unknown (to casual fans) and with no 24/7 is a pretty good number.Manny is a draw but not the way that dude is saying he is. Manny/Cotto did 1.25 million buys and then Mannys next fight with Clottey did 700,000. This guy is saying Miguel is worth only 250,000 buys meaning Manny did a million in their fight.

I think he meant Shoud Not!!! base on his second sentence.
If that's the case i agree with both of ya'!!!
He should not go higher than 154 unless there is a catchweight fight with very good money for his retirement plan but i see more money oprions at 154 including or catchweight lower than going up, and that's including Martinez!!!Comment
