A Los Golpes (ESPN) Stated Cotto's Purse vs...

[Larry the boss]

This fight would not do more then 600k no way Cotto gets 20 millions and that is why this fight will not be made because Canelo will also want atleast 10 million....

Good luck covering that. I don't even think this fight will generate 20 mil in revenue

?? It's gonna sell at least 500k PPV..at $65 that's 32.5 million. Then it will sell out any arena its in for sure that would probably bring another $10 or whatever. Then of course all the endorsement money from the beer company's or whatever. It will make more then $20 for sure but that's ridiculous for Cotto to get. $15 maybe but $20 is nuts.

he must be conceding a lot to get that much bread.

I have the show on DVR, Ill check it out and post a direct transcription once I get home this eve.

Their comments were based on a conversation with Oscar regarding that the fight was pretty much agreed upon, but there the venue was being very difficult.

Ill have to watch again to pull a direct quote, but may be he was referencing at his total purse, including PPV, gate split, etc.
