Canelo is a huge star. You don't do 2.2 million homes with Floyd unless you are a very big B-side, and you don't do 300k vs Lara unless you are a mega star. Canelo has big PPV potential, the problem it has to be a big b-side and GGG is not that. Cotto rematch, Chavez Jr, another welterweight coming up like Danny Garcia, Tim Bradley, Kell Brook. The GGG fight does pretty good numbers, but not more than Canelo-Cotto. Certainly no where near Mayweather-Pacquiao.

Oh please. His last ppv barely cracked 1million ppvs with one of the biggest draws in boxing history and it was Mexican - Puerto Rican rivalry fight. What happened to Mexicans buy all the ppvs? Seems as the Mexicans buy more of Floyd ppvs than Canelos. I would even add that Mayweather/Cotto outsold Canelo/Cotto and it was a much better fight.
