i see this fight more as personal for cotto,more like revenge,not a big fight where it will be good for his record,not like a huge victory,not like he's beating a young,strong guy or a champion,it's not lke that in any way,it's just more like personal,no way this will be viewed as a huge victory,something great,just to him maybe because of the controversy..i just don't see the greatness in beating someone who just came off a terrible beating,got dominated badly...like i said,it's just a personal thing for cotto,nothing more

If Margarito loses this fight it will be alot more damaging than his previous losses because of the controversy of his loaded hands....So make sure no one is watching while they wrap your hands Antonio...

Cotto had a gurantee 3 million plus his earnings of the PPV of the first fight and got 7 millions all toghether.

For the pac Fight, Cotto got a guranteed 10million plus PPV and he ended up earning 17 millons, Pac got 25.

And for this fight he is getting 75% of the PPV plus a 6million guranteed pursue. He will probably end up winning like 13-14 millions, wich is not bad at all!!!

Based on what exactly???

It's more about money. You and I know it that both Margarito and Cotto need each other to make that much money if they aren't fighting Pac/Mayweather.

Even Don King paid Tito 20 mills for the Winky fight and that fight made around 400K ppv buys

While your at it, why don't we make Cotto choose the ref, put a relative of his in the NYSAC, and tie Margo's hands behind his back. Are you comfy now?

That sounds fair.

The WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto will face Antonio Margarito in a rematch on September 17 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the purse of the Puerto Rican could be worth as much as $6 million dollars, according to Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank. Margarito is having additional tests conducted to ensure that his injuries, suffered in the bout with Manny Pacquiao last November, are fully healed.

What?
Puerto Ricans can travel to the west coast but Mexicans dont have enough fare to get to the east?...lol WTF?

Cheato gets to have it in his backyard again?
Cotto should make a stand. F cheato, maybe they should allow Cotto to plaster up.....just dont tell him.Maybe Cotto can watch a movie or take a nap while he gets wrapped.

this^^^^^^^^

Be bad ass if fight happens in New York. Cotto should be guaranteed 8.750 mill.

[sdcluser]

Only $6 mil?! J/K

BTW, Margarito is not gonna beat a semi-elite/elite fighter like Cotto. Margarito is done already.

Haven't you learned on why it is in Vegas?? Tax issue. Plus, Vegas is where the majority of all the major big fights in the U.S. happen. Personally, it's fair for the fight to happen in the east but it is what it is.
