[daggum]

if you haven't noticed boxing has gone downhill since the may 2nd farce. i don't expect this to do good numbers either. better than gennady "3 buys" golovkin but not much

[The plunger man]

Both fighters got beat mayweather !
Canelo should of got beat by Lara
Cotto got beat by pacquio
Cotto got beat by trout
Both fighters are ****tng themselves in having to face golovkn....

And yet they think it will do 2 million on ppv.....yeah sure it is lol. War golovkin

[SchoolTheseCats]

I listened to the call and they said they expect 4 million, anything under that would be a catastrophe failure. We will see.

This dork right here lmao making up lies

[Teetotaler]

Hopefully it sells well. Haha at all the "boxing fans" wanting this ppv to fail. How the hell can you hate on this fight and undercard?

[Sugar Adam Ali]

[Larry the boss]

During a recent media conference call, Hall-of-Fame boxer-turned-promoter Oscar de la Hoya insisted that the November 21 showdown between Miguel Cotto and Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez will sell more than 1.5 million units for their HBO Pay-Per-View headliner at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

The driving belief behind that claim stems from the potential for all-out warfare between the two boxing superstars, but also – as de la Hoya insists – Alvarez’ massive drawing power. The 25-year old former super welterweight champ serves as the face of boxing for his native Mexico, which has historically boasted among the most passionate fan bases in the sport.

1-1.2mil would be a huge success imho.

[PETUFF]

I will said 2.5 .................warr Cotto!!!!!!!!!

[Pigeons]

I don't think any PPV without Mayweather, Pacquiao, De La Hoya, or a heavyweight in the main event has ever even reached 700K buys. Food for thought.
