    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

    Okay, you just said there was little interest in the PBF/Marquez fight and Pac/Cotto would've promoted itself. That is what I was saying. PBF/Marquez had no excitement to it. It was two counterpunchers and the much better one had a 2 weight class advantage. The outcome was already written on the wall. And how are you getting that Pac is a much bigger draw? Just the Pac/Cotto fight, right? You state Cotto and Marquez are little difference in draw. Hatton is a much better draw than Marquez, right? Well, PBF/Marquez did better than Pac/Hatton. So should I concluded that PBF is a bigger draw than Pac? I am showing you much more evidence to back up that PBF is a bigger draw. But I still agree with you to this point. PBF shouldn't get 51% Neither one is DLH or Tyson and the fight should be a 50/50 split.
