Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo-Cotto Can Do Nearly 2 Million on PPV

[New England]

lol....



600K buys. i am sticking with that number.


i think that would be a huge success.



let's see oscar put his money where his mouth is, and give these two 20 million guarantees. if they sell 2 million ppv, they will easily have earned it.


oscar is just blowing smoke.

ODH was a GREAT FIGHTER, still is and looks like he has overcome the devil.

People make fun of him but he is gonna make a good promoter because he knows the fans make boxing, and you gotta put the best against the best.

Cotto vs Canelo will be a TREMENDOUS fight for the Middle weight title of the WORLD and I will gladly PAY to see this fight.

i dont really see it doing 1 million.

[twosweethooks]

No chance, if you ask me. It could maybe do a bit over a million. Maybe 1.1 to 1.5 at the absolute most. I just can't see 2 million. It damn sure won't even be near a million if they were to go up against Floyd on the same night, which, let's face it, is NOT going to happen. This is just reality, folks. I'd rather see Canelo/Cotto than any fight besides the obvious (Floyd/Manny), but reality is reality. And Oscar has lost touch with reality.

Nah,,, most people want to see fighters that engage in fisticuffs not in pot shots, Cotto Canelo will provide ACTION, both engaged in a WAR.

Most fight fans don't care about a ballerina act with chinny

Whats wrong with yall ? Yall have yer heads so far up May Jr's A** that you can't recognize a great fight ? ODH is trying to make some great fights and yall are making fun of that ? Most of yall sound like a bunch of ****'s, this is a boxing forum.

If you came to reality, Jr bluffed Canelo and won, if Canelo had fought him like I hoped he had then he might have won , via Maidana style, if Cotto would have had the right Trainer(Roach) after his killin by Pac then when he fought JR he would have KO'd Jr.

you boys are blind to Jr's program. He makes the edge happen in his favor or he don't fight.

I think it does around 900k. I was thinking the exact same thing. If the fight does 2 million they should get 20 million each.

[Rip Chudd]

I think it tops out at 700K.

Golden boy taking that shiet again. ...Don't think a young buck fighting a lion on the decline merits any regard above HBO after dark...personally wont pay a dime for this fight. Ive paid Cotto enough of my money to aid in his accumulation of wealth and haven't paid Canelo a dime yet and wont bcuz in all honesty he aint worthy despite what u slurpers continue to contend...

[Czarczar]

Makes 1 Million

It will easily make 1 million PPV just with Puerto Ricans and Mexicans ordering the fight.

Yall so caught up in the 2mil that y'all missing what Oscar is really saying. He said just like ever other fan he's waiting on the fight but his patience is wearing out.

He was talking about may vs. Pac.

Also neither cotto or Canelo has made 10 mil a fight. He can guarantee both fighters that and a small ppv upside and if the fight gets to 1mil buys Oscar still makes a kings ransom.
