Yeah, it isn't doing 2 million buys. It should do 1.5ish though. Should be Mayweathers second biggest ppv.

Sure Richard, just like Mayweather vs Ortiz would do 1.6m and make Mayweather $40 million.

Although PBF is my favorite fighter truthfully I didn't plan on ordering this fight and I wasn't gonna order Bradley vs Manny either. PBF vs Cotto and Bradley vs Manny are not fights at the top of my must see list. If my wife wanted to see the PBF vs Cotto fight then I would have ordered it. Last night the commercial for PBF vs Cotto came on and when she saw that the fight is $70 she was like hell no I don't want to see it that bad. Well that's $70 bucks I will be keeping in our pockets. Usually like to watch fights without a bunch of people around looks like I will be at somebody fight party.

I expect to be, I've been invited to 4 different parties already, and intend to go to one of them, cause I won't pay for this fight.

People are eating up the "Mayweather is going to Jail" and the "Cotto trashed Margarito" nonsense. The hype is up here in north Philly where is mostly Ricans.

Wasnt Floyd-Mosley suppose to break 4 million buys?

Yeah Im in North Jersey and its same thing. I think fight will do 1.5-1.8.

What's Schaefer smoking to think Cotto doesn't get tired and gets stronger in the second half of the fight?

This will prove Cotto is the third biggest draw even if its the 2nd largest PPV
