    If Mayweather fanbase is solely in the US

    and Cotto has a huge following in the US, Puerto Rico, Cuba, New York and Dominican **********, and the Fight was on Cinco De Mayo...

    How in the Hell? Does Cotto get less than 50 percent of revenue????
    Please tell me ...

    I dont wanna hear "o floyds the bigger draw"
    just cuz you say it louder than everyone else
    doesn't make you right
    true. Of the fans who went to the fight, at LEAST 85% were pro Cotto, so I would say he deserves 85% of the gate. At least.

        That's before the PPV upside. He's going to make substanially more, like Mayweather will.

          After my research and discussion here...

          I'm starting to feel the Cotto deserves almost if not as much as Mayweather gets....

          Cotto put up a great fight

          The Cotto Fanbase played a key role in the PPV buys

          and Cotto had the belt

            Hey brother, great thread...

            I agree Cotto deserves more. Don't you think its crazy that he's getting the MOST he's ever gotten in a fight (while still deserving more) once he left his former promotional company?

            That's the crazy part.

              Some bought because they're Cotto fans, some because they're Floyd fans, and some because they hate Floyd and want him to lose. That's Floyd drawing them in, regardless of their reason for watching. Cotto should make about 15 million dollars when all is said and done.

                  I think Cotto got like 8 plus a cut of the ppv. I mean whatever, if Cotto thought he could get more, why didn't he? I'm sure Floyd put up all the money or most of it to cover the promotions and probably guided Cotto in how to promote fights for the future.

                  8-15 Mill is a damn good payday. It doesn't look fair on paper but Floyd has been earning those huge paydays for a while so he isn't going to take a 50-50 split with anyone at this stage.

                  Now the Pac fight should be closer in terms of split but Floyd will never go for a 50-50. It is becoming apparent that Arum is taking a majority of Pac's money, if Pac got rid of Arum, I could see a 40-60 split.
