    More $$ for Cotto, Being the A side vs Canelo or being the B side vs Floyd?

    These will be the decisive factors.

    vs Canelo he will be the A side but will this fight be able to make enough cash? This fight offers action and it will sell by it self with little promotion needed.

    Vs Floyd although being the B side they are 2 well known boxers and the fact that their first fight was very competitive and now that Cotto has looked revitalize with Freddy Roach people are now wondering if....


    Floyd - will he fight Khan, Cotto , PAc? easiest to hardest in my eyes

    Khan - This fight will not sell as much do to people will prefffer to buy Cotto - Canelo. Floyd might be obligated to fight Cotto or Pac to be able to compete with the PPV sells.

    Cotto - reasons mentioned above.


    Pac - biggest risk, crazy Money $$$ making fight. will Floyd man up finally? Every time he opens his mouth and makes excuses for this fight not happening he looses a point from me in the fan dept.

    Do you think he would be the A side with Canelo? I don't...at best it would be 50-50. Cotto didn't do 2.2 with Floyd.

      Yeah. I wouldn't consider Cotto the A-Side against Canelo either. I'd say it was 50-50 or slightly in Canelo's favour.

      He would make more money against Canelo though simply because the purse will be split more evenly and not like 90-10 like it usually is in a Floyd fight or whatever it is.

        A side B side status are NOT defined by hard core boxing fans. You all know this. It is determine by how well they are known World Wide not juts Mexico, California or Texas


        And Yes Cotto with no doubt is the A side vs Canelo. He is the more accomplished fighter of the 2 and the one who has looked better in recent fights.

          I think Khan-Mayweather would do crazy numbers.

          They would promote it to death on both sides of the pond.

            Cotto - Canelo ****s Khan - Mayweather in USA, if Floyd fights Khan in England they'll sell out Wembley and get 1.5Mill PPV buys.

            Cotto will get his money fighting either. Floyd may have to overpay Cotto to get the fight.

              Cotto was offered 10M to fight Nelo. I think he'll make a similar amount (or more) now that he's the MW champ.

              Floyd never pays his opponents, although I remember Cotto made a pretty good amount.
