I'm definately getting the fight on PPV. I wanted to go see it live but things didn't plan out like I'd hoped. This is a must see fight in my humble opinion and even though I swore I wouldn't pay for another pay per view till Pac and May got in the ring theres just no way I can justify not paying for this one.

Can't believe I'm allowing my job to get in the way of going to the rematch. I'll be watching from my tv though. Cotto is so great.

NEW YORK -- Three-division world champion and the Pride of Puerto Rico MIGUEL COTTO and professional rival and three-time welterweight world champion ANTONIO “The Tijuana Tornado” MARGARITO sold the last ticket available at Madison Square Garden this morning for their long-awaited world championship rematch. The 17,943rd and final ticket was sold at 10:42 a.m. ET, producing a box office gate in excess of $3 million. For Cotto, who has sold more tickets to The Mecca of Boxing in this millennium than any other fighter, this is his second complete sellout of The Garden. The first was his welterweight title defense against former world champion Zab Judah on June 9, 2007.

No knock to Cotto, but I think Pawel and Delvin may have something to do with it too!

Out of the 18k, Rodriguez and Pawel probably are responsible for 2k.
