Espn: "Cotto-Canelo Purse Cotto 22 million and Canelo 6.5

[BrometheusBob.]

I suppose the OP will be covering the difference for Cotto out of pocket

[KO MX]

excuse me, who was the diva?

[M Bison]

God damn Cotto was looking for retirement money here. Alvarez is getting paid just a bit more than if he were to fight another Kirkland-level opponent.

I guess this was the only way to get Cotto to agree to take another Mexican Style beating.

Not many fighters in Canelo position would ever have agreed to this, makes you wonder why so many people on here seem to have a hard-on for disliking him lol.

$6.5 million is a hell of a lot of cash though, Canelo If he keeps on going at the pace he is and with beating Cotto he really could become one of the biggest PPV names for the sport which is crazy considering how damn young he is.

[KingTito]

Damn. I wasn't expecting that much of a difference.

Safe to say Canelo knows who the A-side is.

What is HBO's breakeven point on PPV with these guarantees? 900K?

1 million ppv buys

It should surely go over 1 million you'd think, I'd buy this fight If it was on PPV over in Britain lol.

[bigjavi973]

People still calling Cotto a diva....

and completely ignore ODH & Canelo not wanting to fight in NYC.

[Mr.Fantastic]

If true, I guess Canelo isn't the diva I thought he was.

[PulpFriction]

big javi exposing animalisticmeth's ability to read. Floyd probably can read better than animalistic meth.

Yet neither guy has Broner's d.ick up their ass like you.
