"The announced crowd was 20, 727."

"Purse: Cotto - $2 million; Foreman - $750,000."

Cotto charged $50 for the face value cheap seats, and still put over 20k people into the building; charged $400 for face value ringside seats too. And that was 5 years ago, at significantly higher price than what Golden Boy is charging for their ticket.

You're not the only one that can do a web search
