Comments Thread For: Making Cotto-Kirkland a PPV is Not a Healthy Start to New Year

Piracy is NOT PPV boxing’s biggest obstacle. It's only a sympton or response to the abuse of a business model applied to far too many inconsequential fights.

I agree with the article, yet, Cotto is about to retire and I see nothing wrong with him fighting Kirk. This is a dangerous fight for Miguel.

This man gets it. I agree here 100%.

Remember when piracy was supposed to be killing the movie industry? But then great ass movies started coming out and breaking records? I wonder why. You put out a good product and you get good results. Simple as that.

Your have to have Cotto's balls deep in your lungs to be buying this ****.

[PETUFF]

I buy any Cotto fight! i know is going to be action!

I'm not dis*****g that cotto didn't beat a weakened version of Martinez but my point is, nobody knew what version of Martinez would show up until fight night. It's not like cotto knew going in for a fact that it'd be an easy fight. He accepted the fight just like he's accepted fights against other top fighters his entire career. Sometimes you luck out like he did with Martinez and sometimes you don't like he did with plaster wraps Margarito.

That's true. Martinez swore his knee wasn't a problem, saying it was 'more than 100%' and had held up in training etc. Knee lasted less than 3 mins.

HBO is trying to kill boxing

I think they are trying to kill off all the competing promoters.

If Roc Nation, Haymon's crew, etc keep blowing their money foolishly while HBO is penny pinching...at the end of the day who do you think will be the one left standing?
