How Many PPVs does Cotto/Canelo do?

[UTEP]

1.5 - 1.7 million if it's on Cinco de Mayo weekend or Mexican Independence weekend. 1 million if it's on any other date.

[Ringlife]

I think it would do around 1.5 mill.

1.5~1.7? You guys don't know a thing about the PPV business.

It'll do between 750 and a million and that would be considered a massive success.

Everyone is in agreement for the most part that this will be a big fight and will outsell whatever Floyd does later this year.

Knowing Floyd being the self-proclaimed PPV king, and his selection of opponents coming off of the right type of win...Could we expect to see him instead in the ring with Cotto?

I see Cotto 2 as the right fight from Floyd's standpoint. Who is he going to fight for more money? Who has as much to offer (6th title in 6th weight class) and as much buzz as Cotto right now?

I would rather see Cotto fight Canelo, but it is hard for me to imagine him not getting the fight and having to watch two guys he beat, put on a bigger show than he will later this year.

Of course Lara could always upset the apple cart.

Interesting set of circumstances. I can't wait to see how the rest of the year plays out.

Canelo isn't the ppv stud ppl make him out to be. Sure he got 2.2 mil with Floyd because they really captured the image of this undefeated young fighter who could handle Floyd for his first L apparently that wasn't the case and on the very next fight his ppv weren't even a quarter of what he made.


I'd say 1.7mil on a December month would be decent. With the Martinez win over the weekend it propelled Cotto's popularity and not that it means much but with Roach on the corner he gives him that extra shine.

Actual Question: How Many PPVs does Cotto/Canelo do?

Should have been the answers:

1) 750k-1m
2) 1-1.25m
3) 1.25m-1.5m
4) 1.5m-1.75m
5) 1.75m-2.0m
6) 2m or above. (never)

I choose answer #3

Agree. 1.2-1.5M.

Total success and an epic match up!

Bro there have been like maybe 10 cards to ever pull in that many buys. Tad better than decent.

Cotto vs Margarito 2 was a big fight, Mexico vs PR battle, and it did 600k buys. I know this Canelo vs Cotto fight its bigger, but i dont think it past 1m.

I think it would sell 950k buys aprox.

cotto is a bigger draw now, and margarito was never a draw, you cant even compare margarito and canelo... it will past a million no doubt... 1.5 will be my guess but wouldnt surprise me if they reach higher numbers...

[Evol]

i'll say anywhere from 1-1.5mil

Your right but we still don't know what the undercard would provide. 1.7 may be a long shot but not impossible its a shame Mayweather got these Mexican holidays hostage.
