Pac/Cotto PPV numbers Poll

[Cortez The Killer]

This is as plain as I can put it. Fresh out of retirement, do you really believe PBF/Marquez is a better buy than PBF/Cotto? Pac/Cotto did what it was expected to. PBF/Marquez did double what is was expected to. Lets keep it real.

Are you kidding me? I never said that. Pac-Cotto was 10 times the buy. Are you messing with me? You just switched and took my argument!

Im saying Pacquiaos a bigger draw than mayweather. And that Mayweather Marquez had just as much promotional money behind is as Pac-Cotto.

No, no, no. You misunderstood me a bit here. I know you didn't say what you have in bold. But indirectly you did. You're saying Pac is a better PPV draw than PBF because Pac/Cotto did better than PBF/Marquez. I am saying that Cotto and Marquez are two different draws. Therefore, PBF/Cotto would have been a much better draw than PBF/Marquez. Just like Pac/Cotto was. If you compare fights, which you shouldn't, then look at PBF/Hatton PBF/DLH PBF/Marquez in comparison to Pac/Hatton Pac/DLH Pac/Marquez. PBF versus all three common opponents drew more in each case. You can't compare PBF/DLH to Pac/Cotto.

OK, i get ya. I already tried to make these point but maybe you missed them or i wasnt clear:

1) Marquez and Cotto don't differ that much in terms of PPV draw. Small advantage for Cotto

2) Mayweather Marquez had all the promotion in the world behind it. The fact that there was little interest in the fight made HBO and MGM pull out all the stops on promotion. Cotto-Pacquiao would've promoted itself, and no way more was spent promoting Cotto-Pacquiao than was spend on Mayweather-Marquez.

3) Cotto pacquiao was $54.99, PBF-JMM was $49.99. Not much, but if the price raises there would typically be less sales, and the opposite happened.

4) Cotto Pacquiao is probably going to do 300-500k more sales that PBF last fight.

5)Pacquiao is a much bigger draw than floyd and even if floyd gets a 51 percent cut it's too much
