How many PPV buys does Cotto-Canelo get?

[komodo]

Doesn't matter on the numbers, whatever it does they hit profit since neither fighter has huge guarantees.

[bojangles1987]

Around 400K. Max 500K.

Sure as hell isn't going to come close to competing with Mayweather vs. anyone. People need to stop that nonsense.

[PACnPBFsuck]

550 Max if Floyd fights Khan

375 Max if Floyd fights Pacquiao

[bluebeam]

850,000 max

[LinealChampion]

To be conservative and back down to reality.

Probably 600-800. If they really do it right, maybe 850,000.

I'm guessing 600 to 700. Its not gonna be anywhere near the blockbuster people think It will be.

So if you double their PPV's when they face each other how can Floyd drop from 2.2 million to 800k in his next fight? The only reason his drop wasn't the biggest in history was because Canelo's was worse. When 2 draws face each other it makes it a much bigger fight and adds more than just double the buys. Cotto did 600k with Marg then 1.5 million with Floyd. If anything Kev has a pretty decent idea of them tripling their buy-rate. I could see it hitting 1 million, but if it did 750k it is nowhere near a disappointment. I think anything under 500k would be shockingly low and prove boxing is really dying.

Tops out at 700K at best.

This is not a fight casuals will flock to and its not a fight that will cross racial lines for hardcore fans or casual fans. By that I mean other races of people will not make it their business to watch/order this fight in large numbers.

Casuals once they hear the names will only know that both lost to Floyd one of which was dominated and one also lost to Manny in which he was dominated.

So someone who feels this fight does 1 mill explain to me without this fight having cross over casual and racial success how it does 1mill or over.

I think it would rake in 900k-1 mil....it's a highly anticipated bought between mexico and puerto rico, not to mention a chance for canelo to become the middleweight champion of the world... it will be a very successful ppv imo.

Because Cotto got 600k with Margarito. Even with the wrap scandal Canelo has 10x's the fanbase Marg does.

Lara vs Canelo numbers doesn't back that up. I know Lara doesn't have a big name at all but 300K says a lot about this so called following.

Cotto got between 300-350K for Martinez a fighter with a name not a big name but he is known.

Now you trying to tell me that between the 2 of them they will come up with 400K worth of buyers to a ppv between the 2 of them.

I just don't see it at all.
