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

[Scott9945]

The reason why this fight didn't land in New York was because of their high state taxes. Nevada doesn't have state taxes, which is why things ended up the way they did.

Anyone who believes that Cotto will really make 3 times as much as Canelo is a fool.

Alvarez said he feels deep respect for Cotto, who will receive the greater percentage of a purse split that officials declined to reveal.

According to Lance Pugmire of the LA Times, there has been no official word on purse numbers or purse split. Seems like any numbers being thrown around are purely speculation at this point, and I would take them with a grain of salt. I would say the best course of action is to wait until the fight is around the corner, at which point the numbers will have to be filed with the NSAC and revealed.

Actually that's ok. That's the way to do it

Once he beats Cotto (if he does) he will start getting paid like that too

[Da Boxer]

lol King Cotto haters hating on the fact that he is about to make 30m after ppv.

You people think that CaneLOL will beat Cotto? Ahahahahajajajaja l.ao! No ***ing way!

But the more I think about it...Cotto will have to stop CaneLOL because Oscar will be paying off the judges.

Either way I got King Cotto by stoppage under 10 rounds!!

[BOXEO _]

So Canelo threw away millions just to fight in Vegas? Smh, that's just dumb as hell.

lots of people are reading this thread without actually noticing that animalistic meth literally made up a fake number for cottos purse lmao

[Beater_of_ass]

I don't know what they were getting from MSG. I don't care either. I'm just saying the thread title, op and you are lying about Cotto being guaranteed $22 million that's just straight up bull****

I never said he was getting that either, because I have no clue. What I do know is Oscar is taking less money to let his fighter stay in his backyard, again. And it sounds like he took a multimillionaire dollar hit in order to do it.

[Cinci Champ]

wow he destroyed him oscar sucks

i really dont have a dog in this fight, but the more and more you post, the more and more i wanna see Canelo b1tchslap Cotto like Margarito did
