Cotto Vs Canelo...PPV Potential?

[Achcauhtli]

Has this fight,if being made,got the potential to outdo Mayweather-Pacquiao on PPV?

Or any other of the recent PPV records set by Floyd.

Definitely not the sparring match of the century record. Nor the ppv fight vs Canelo. Maybe, just maybe the DLH/Floyd fight. But casuals(who buy the majority of big ppvs) might be turned off from buying ppvs after may the may 2nd fight.

btw, thats some straight cerdos in your pics! #HellaCarnitas

Answer: Never

PPV's with Cotto and Canelo have done well over 1 million though. (Granted with Floyd.) I think it does 1 million, easy.

I honestly believe it could do huge numbers,i predicted 5 million buys for May-Pac and it fell just short of that.This fight could easily get near 2 million,both are obviously huge huge names.

[ИATAS]

I think it would do over a million for sure, 1.4-1.6 million. But these guys are both divas, Cotto more so, so I can see an $80 price tag ruining that.

Somewhere between 4-6 million. It might just eek out the heist of the century.

Floyd's biggest PPV w/o Pacquiao = 2.48M
Pacquiao's biggest PPV w/o Floyd = 1.3M

Canelo's biggest PPV without Floyd/Pacquiao = 300K
Cotto's biggest PPV without Floyd/Pacquiao = 500K

This fight ain't coming close to 1mill in buys.

I say it tops out around 700K give or take 50K. That is a great number to be honest.

The Floyd vs Manny fight will have no effect on this fight numbers because casuals might be turned off.

Fact of the matter most casuals don't really know who the hell Cotto or Canelo is.

Honestly what fight has either headlined on regular cable that had casuals talking about it?

The good ole Mexican market.

Canelo's K.O. of Kirkland created a lot of buzz, and if Cotto creates a lot of buzz with a good performance against Geale then a Canelo vs. Cotto fight will have a lot of momentum. I say it does 1M PPVs easy.

If Cotto ices Geale in June and say Canelo comes back in September on regular HBO against Clottey and ices him, and Canelo and Cotto meet in December then I think they could do 1.5M PPVs at the least.
