Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Cotto Generates 1.5 Million Buys, $94 Million

[The Big Dunn]

Pacquiao vs Marquez III 1.41m PPV buys

Mayweather vs Ortiz 1.25m PPV buys

Mayweather fought on the bigger boxing day, Mexican Independence day with with Alvarez being the other headliner, and Pacquiao still blow Mayweather's PPV figures out the water.

If Pacquiao does this again with Tim "can sell out a phone box" Bradley, it will just be embarrassing for Floyd.

GBP better start adding Khan and make Floyd's next PPV a triple main event show.

SPin it how ever you and spoon23 want. The #1 highest grossing and largest selling ppv fight and the #1 and #2 non HWT selling ppv's belong to floyd mayweather.

The reason the give floyd the best day is because he's the bigger earner. Thats why Jordan and then Kobe play on Christmas, and the Cowboys play on thanksgiving. The powers that be won't give that date to manny unless floyd doesn't want it.

That's why shaefer expected 2million, GBP estimated Floyd should pull in 1m and Canelo Cotto, the undercard a cool million equals 2m..

GBP expecting 1m from Floyd to warrant the guarantee Floyd is getting, but if you do the math. Floyd pulled in only around 500-700k, that's disappointing coz GBP surely over paid Floyd.

GBP for sure got the bad end of the stick. The bottom of the barrel I must say. He has to pay 4 stars plus the undercard equals no earnings left for gbp.

While Floyd is running all the way to the bank..

Damn that's pretty disappionting for the promoters there giving Floyd so much cash when he is only pulling in 500-700 ppv..

Another highway robbery, this time it's schaefer and Dlh have to cringe giving him too much.

haha... so now pbf will use this leverage again to add another roadblock for the megafight. i don't want the fight anymore, anyway. i hope pbf keep on blocking it. like he said he will be retiring when he's 37. we got one and a half years left folks. and the taunting and joking will never end.

keep on blocking the fight mr. floyd.

1.41 > 1.25

Fact.

Do your research if you don't believe me.

What did you predict Cotto vs Mayweather would do?

[Evil Abed]

All this talk to debate a split for a fight that will never happen.

Its kinda funny.

Thats what you are holding on to, 1.41 unoffical numbers from TR. Geez. SO two ATG HOf'ers, in their 3rd fight, outselling 1 HOf'er and Victor Ortiz, means something. Manny can't even do 1.5 mil ppv's without floyd.

The really sad thing is if manny honestly pulled 1.5 most of us, me included, would be happy. Its sad that you guys get so mad.

I posted 1.5-1.7 mil.

Manny wants 50/50 in exchange for random OST. Unfortunately for Manny, with Petersen getting caught, the type of OST floyd wants may become mandatory so Manny/Bob can't use that as a negotiating tool anymore.

My guess is they fight and manny gets 30-40%, Floyd has done 4 mil ppv's with ODH/Cotto combined. Manny's best 2 don't even make 3 mil. Manny's gotta take what he's worth.

Maybe he should get Martinez onboard and make it a double main event.

Manny should demand, VADA testing, I think Floyd could be micro doping, and he knew USADA tests could not catch him.

No wonder Floyd didn't want to petition the commission.

pacquiao/jmm 4 is sure to happen now. no problem. anyone but mayweather. so that means pac/jmm 4 will happen late this year. pac should have the option of fighing anyone in 2013. everyone does it, why can't he? anyone just to fill up 2013, except mayweather. fans should be sick of that guy. let him stay looking like a duck for the rest of his life.

just remember, pbf has 1.5 years left. i'll be counting the days next year. arum and pac needs to stop mentioning the guys name. let him fight his own fights.
