Comments Thread For: Arum: Cotto Will Earn More From Martinez Than Canelo

[killakali]

He can make more because he I'll take the lions share. Canelo won't fight for as small a purse as Sergio will.

Arum/TR don't want to work with GBP it's as simple as that.

BS and Arum knows it; Canelo vs Cotto would sell more PPV and draw more in gate revunue unless Sergio is taking a 90-10 split Cotto won't make more vs him.

[killakali]

Probably right. If GBP and HBO ever patch things up I see a lot of fighters from TR jumping ship to GBP in the future including Donaire and possibly Pacquiao who tried to sign to GBP in the past before TR got invovled. It's probably why TR has been signing fighters an extending contracts left and right lately to sure up business for at least a couple more years but GBP is the future of boxing...

then why did cotto and Juan Diaz leave gbp for toprank? Also pacquiao opponents make more than Floyd opponents. Rios got4mil for PAC. A lot more than Ortiz or Guerrero got for Floyd. I think both companies pay well.

Cotto is a free agent tf are you talking about? and why would you even mention a washed up Juan Diaz? Some people have no clue...

If Martinez-Cotto generates like 550k buys at $60, that's $33M in just PPV revenue, not to mention the gate. I don't see why it's so implausible for Cotto to get $10M out of that.

Lol. Because HBO will broadcast the fight for free.

They take half of PPV revenue. So cut that $33mill in half.

He also has twice as good a shot against Alvarez.

Canelo would take the lionshare of the purse vs cotto, or at least a 50/50 split

serg will probably give cotto 60% of the money

That is why i said serg should have fought ggg, because serg would hold all the leverage, and could probably take a 90/10 split from GGG and GGG would still be getting a career high payday, since he only make 400k, serg could take 7 million and give ggg 1 million for a total of 8 million purse,,

cotto and cotto probably have a purse around 15 mil tops, and cotto gonna take 9-10 of that money and leave serg with a nice 5 million payday, but not the amount a GGG fight would have paid them

When dealing with boxing purses you have to understand the 2 main factors are the fighters purse demands,, cotto and canelo both command huge paydays, whereas GGG does not at this point in time
