Cotto is such a huge star compared to ggg....false!

[Nay_Sayer]

alot of accountants in this thread.

So by your logic since Justin Bieber sells more CDs than Miles Davis that makes him better?

interesting position.......

There were no such things as "CDs" when Miles Davis was in his prime years.

Put GGG on PPV and lets see how many buys he gets. We can laugh about it later.

Tell someone to sign a contract. He'll take Froch if he ever replies, or Cotto if he grows a set of balls or Canelo when Oscar allows him to come out and play. Takes TWO to make a PPV. If not, then why wasn't Geale - Cotto a PPV if Cotto is such a STAR? Shouldn't Cotto have been enough to make that fight PPV?

[Nay_Sayer]

Nobody with more than 3 active brain cells can dispute that Cotto is a bigger attraction than GGG. That is fact, and not up for debate. The actual debate is about how far the spread is between them, and it seems the gap is closing. Cotto-stans want to act like GGG is some unknown slob that 99% of boxing fans couldnt pick out of a lineup, and thats just not the case.

So, how many PPVs has Bum-love-kin sold?

Cotto recently signed a three fight 50+ million dollar deal. Exactly how much does Bum-love-kin make per fight?

Marinate on that for a while...

Hahahahaha!


I like how subtle you think you are when trying to SHIELD Canelo from his own cowardice, while pretending to believe that Cotto "has no balls..."


"When Oscar allows him (Canelo) to come out and play..."



Ahahahahahahahaha!




The denial/bias around here is good shyt!

The biggest attraction in any circus has always been the freak show. Freak shows are illegal now so they have been replaced with the closest thing... the Cotto and Roach show.

have the viewing figures for cotto-geale been released yet?

That is the magic of it all. While these haters persist in making up irrational posts, Cotto give them hell.

They pray for his demise and he denies them with an arrogant 3rd person victory speech.


"Miguel Cotto, has earned his stripes... Miguel Cotto does not have to concern himself with what GGG wants, Canelo wants... Miguel Cotto will do what Miguel Cotto wants to do and nobody, not WBO, WBC or any other grey-skinned/half dead senile bastard pimp-of-peasants, will dicate to Miguel Cotto...."

FACT: the Triple Duck has not sold a single PPV...

Data can be interpreted in many ways, and data can be cherry picked to suit the agenda:

# of PPV flops:
Cotto: 3, maybe 4
GGG: zero

# of times knocked OUT:
Cotto: 2
GGG: zero

# of losses:
Cotto: 4
GGG: zero

KO percentage:
Cotto: 75%
GGG: 91%

Olympic history:
Cotto: Eliminated 1st round
GGG: Won Silver medal

Amateur record:
Cotto: 125-23
GGG: 345-5



Everything I stated was fact, but can be interpreted differently, depending on which agenda you are pursuing.

have the viewing figures for cotto-geale been released yet?

Not before Wednesday. Cable channel weekend ratings are always slower to come in than network ratings.

[Eff Pandas]

many people, in and out of this thread, equate popularity with talent, but those 2 qualities are not mutually exclusive.......

No thats incorrect & you need to up your reading comprehension game if you have come away with that as the point.

Popularity > Talent in the money game of boxing & mfers keep acting like boxing is some noble quest for respectable title belts to decide who's the best when its a cluster**** of corrupt alphabet groups with ****ty rules & rankings for 6+ "champions" in every weight division & a putting asses in seats, selling PPV's & getting ratings business for the fighters. And Cotto has excelled at the highest point of the popularity angle with getting cats to take money out of their pockets $50+ at a time to watch him fight while GGG is doing respectable with getting ratings on HBO, but not earned a single $1 in PPV buys. Thus Cotto > GGG in how boxing works at the elite level before they even enter the ring. What happens in the ring is a whole other thing & not relevant to the **** that needs to happen way before they get in the ring.
