The only way this should be on PPV is if it is in a card with Chavez vs Golovkin. A lot of money to be spend, but Arum will gladly troll GB if he wants to.

I think this PPV is gonna do a lot better then people are expecting. marquez has become a huge hero among Mexican fight fans and has been part of several PPV's that have done great numbers. I don't think it will do a million PPV's but i think it will do 500,000 buys which are still really good numbers if your name isn't Pacquiao or Mayweather.

I agree with this.

Looking forward to seeing this scrap. Curious to see how it fares on PPV though considering Bradley can't draw flies to **** and JMM has never been a huge draw himself.

That'd be cool. HBO were willing to have GGG headlin 3 out of 5 fights this year....doubt Arum puts JCC Jr. in with him though.
Maybe Geale... don't know if he'll leave Australia though

Arum is a genius

No way GBP put Canelo vs Cotto on the same date. He has zero PPV buys and doesn't speak english

Marquez Bradley is a pick em fight. Canelo-Cotto is a mismatch.

Anybody who buys Canelo-Cotto is a diehard fanboy. That fight is a total ****ing mismatch. Its the equivalent of the Floyd fans that were excited about him beating up on Gatti. Cotto is a shot fighter at this stage and has zero chance of winning.

Marquez vs Bradley is a much better fight then Canelo beating on Cotto.

Don't have to be a fanboy. IMO, casuals will see this as a legit fight.
Names sell too

JMM/Bradley is a great fight, glad it's being made. Canelo/Cotto is also a great fight. Cotto may have lost his last two fights but they were both close. Plus it's always fun to bring out the old Mexican/PR rivalry. Takes me back to the old Chavez/Camacho and DLH/Trinidad days.

Bradley should demand VADA Testing starting at least 4 months before the fight. NOT 6-7 weeks before that Rigondeaux agreed against Donaire.

I'm sure that demand would kill the fight. Memo and Marquez will probably agree to the 6-7 week testing farce.

Marquez is still not the bigger hero in Mexico compared to Barrera or even Morales. Even most Mexicans know that JMM's sudden one punch knockout power at welterweight is artificial.
