      I'm not sure if PAC-Hatton was a success because of PAC, Hatton-Mayweather did 860k. So you have to split it though I haven't seen the ppv break down for the fight. But I did see the break down for the Cotto-PAC fight, where the larger amount of buys were from the east cost, and 110k coming from PR. Most experts say the east cost views can be attributed to Cotto though I don't necessarily believe that. Also I think PAC gets way more credit for beating Cotto, then De la Hoya. I will not dispute what De La Hoya did for PAC. But I believe PAC Cotto would still have done 1.25mil with out that De la Hoya fight. By the way I'm trying to find the follow up article which I believe was written by Dan rafeal discussing the 2nd negotiations. Arum said he offered Cotto 13mil with possibly 2mil more after ppv. Cotto said that offer was never made. There was a follow up article that I read which said The offer was for 6.5 minimum guarantee with the edge for Cotto on PPV. I'm looking for that article.

      • I dont see how that would happen, martinez only knocks people out late and cotto's only been knocked out late, so i highly highly doubt it.

          I just don't base it on PPV numbers alone. Because Cotto-De La Hoya would most likely have done mor then PAC-DLH. Also remember nobody wanted to fight Cotto. DLH Promised his wife he wouldn't fight Cotto. Mayweather retired (I'm not saying because of Cotto), I mean you gotta remember Cotto was destroying everybody at one point before he fought Margarito nobody wanted to get in the ring with him.

            I guess the only thing cotto learned from fighting floyd is how to put a million excuses and demands so that he doesn't end up fighting martinez.I'll tell you what cottos demands are:

            2.small ring

            4.announcement and. Introduced second
            5.80/20. Split cotto and all ppv sales
            6.Cotto picks. His glove size and sergio has to use 20oz gloves
            7.rematch clause
            8.more time on hbo 24/7
            9.only 1. Month of. Training for sergio
            10. Lou Dibellaa cannot promote the fight

              Lmao, renydration and small ring are probably true. The rest was funny though. Good.

                I'm not dis*****g that he was unhappy with the catch weight, I'm saying he never publicly said anything bad about the catch weight, that's two different things. He never discredited PAC for the catch weight. He never discredited the fight. He never even said in public that the catch weight was the reason he lost. He said he felt slow and tired because of the catch weight, other then that I've never read he complained about the catch weight. Of course in negotiations he's going to fight against the catch weight, who wouldn't? It's an advantage to your opponent. Canelo said he would fight Floyd at a catch weight, when Floyd called him on it during negotiations he started complaining.lol. I'm just saying I never heard nor read Cotto complaining about the catch weight. Not being happy about it, yes I agree(d)
                you say he never said anything publicly bad about the catchweight...but then where I highlight part of your post you say he felt slow and tired..lol,thats not bad?..give me a break man,you contradicting yourself in your whole post..he said it in public,,anyways who cares,bottom line is cotto was not happy with the catchweight then,why is it ok now?...he wants to do to Martinez what he opposed of before...even if Martinez years ago offered to come down,that was a long time ago,i'm sure he's used to 160 and will be 39 by the time they fight,he's a much different fighter now than he was when he wanted cotto,thats why cotto wants him now

                  One of his better performance for sure but still lost,gassed,could have got knocked out and got hit a lot.You make sure to show your face around here when cotto gets ktfo.

                  I guess you miss the trout fight and if you didn't you are blind cause cotto was way undersize and you still think he has a chance against Martinez get real. The physical advantages are to great to over come for a fighter that has stamina issues and has t-rex arms

                    • love miguel but this is a horrible matchup for him. he should have taken the canelo fight, which i believe he could win. sergio, even now, is just too slick and unorthodox. would be surprised if martinez knocked him out, but see a frustrating night for cotto if this fight happens.
