    Cotto vs. Kirkland, Rigo vs. Flores in Texas on 2/25

    Boxrec is already listing those fights as being done for 2/25 at the Ford Center at the Star. If it's a go, I'm sure that we'll see Claressa Shields and Darmani Rock added to the card as well. It'd be very interesting to see if Shakur Stevenson ends up on the card also. Definitely looking forward to this one.

      You're underestimating Rigo's selling power. He will fill up the Ford Center and add about 100k buys to the PPV. Add that to about 250k buys for Cotto and you have yourself a profit.

              Do they have another choice? HBO isn't buying many fights these days. When the pot starts to shrink from poor attendance and everyone pulling streams, this is what happens.

                And that's what happens when promoters and networks give us **** fights. Specially on PPV... such as this one. **** them.

                    I just look at this fight as Cotto being a man that never comes to back down vs. Kirkland who is undefeated under Wolfe. I'll give them a $50 spot to chill in the cheap seats for the card.
