cotto vs floyd ppv numbers

[mexican wedding shirt]

it wont even be a good or entertaining bout either.

I agree, but hey, it's something to talk about

If the bout does ever happen, people are going to be very disappointed, it's going to be a real anticlimax like Oscar vs Tito or Oscar vs Floyd.

[FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']Floyd probably is making 70 Mill if not more off the last PPV. I say 50/50 on the guarantee then 50/40 on the PPV for Floyd. It's a retirement fight when it happens anyway. As meaningless as Hops vs Roy if it wait 2 more years.[/FONT]

Fraud will have no money left within 7 years. His spending habits are obscene! Check it out:

Despite all the wealth Floyd Mayweather has potentially created through his boxing successes, there are rumors Floyd is not as financially stable as you may think. After his fight with Ricky Hatton, which should have been the peak of his professional and financial career, the IRS announced that Floyd owed $6.1 million in back taxes. Soon after he was sued by a Florida real estate developer who claimed Mayweather backed out of the purchase of an $8.5 million house, he allegedly owed the first installment of $1.7 million. Just a few months later $7.1 million worth of Jewelry was stolen from his home. As recently as September 2009 Floyd was sued by JP Morgan for failing to make payment on a $528,000 Mercedes Maybach 57S. Mayweather borrowed $415,000 at an annual interest rate of 16% in order to pay for the car, he reportedly has not made the $9000 monthly payment in over a year.

Fraud gonna be broke VERY soon!

$7m in jewelry

Floyd is disgusting. He should be using that money for charity and other productive ventures.

[Pascals Wager]

When floyd was last asked about the split, it was clear he knew that anything except 50/50 is indefensible. Rather than discuss it when asked, he brought up drug testing.

Yep. That was telling. He bought up an irrelevant point to cover an indefensible one.

Tim Bradley's fights don't get aired in Canada. How exactly do you expect me legally to watch Tim Bradly if his fights don't get broadcasted here?

that's bullshit, plus, Bradley unification fight vs Holt took place in Canada

[Azazel]

Lol at people claiming Canelo vs Mosley didn't help the ppv numbers. Canelo has a lot of hype behind him and it's not like if he was fighting a scrub. Mosley is a big (if faded) name himself, of course it boosed the numbers

[Azazel]

Not these big ones, no. Boxing fans are going to buy anyway. These cards are built for average sports fans.

yes, and Mosley is one of the few names that is still know by the average sports fans. Canelo too for the mexican-american one asfaik

Why are we comparing floyd/cotto to pac/jmm. How come the comparisons arent made between floyd/cotto and manny/cotto? I'll Holla 5000

Manny/Cotto happened 3 years ago and both men are doing much better numbers now. If we made the comparison between each man's numbers vs Marquez there's a bigger difference in Manny's favour.

[steve_dave]

Don't we all agree they should split 50/50?

[Hut*Hut]

Clearly, yes. Annoyingly, Bradley isn't as marketable as Cotto/Alvarez & Mosley so Manny probably won't do 1.5, which'll give Floyd more fodder to say he's a bigger draw. He isn't.

Yeah, it's all pretty annoying.

Floyd fights always generate more buzz in my neck of the woods, but 50/50 is the only way to go.

[Hut*Hut]

yeah. especially since it would be such a global fight. It'd probably make half as much again in Britain alone, and it'd surely generate another >8 figures in Asia.
