The article implied that Roach is hoping for a Cotto rematch.
I think he's more or less saying Bradley is not that good of a fighter and that Cotto is much better than people think, more specifically, better than Bradley.

Miguel Cotto chose 65/35 split and atleast $30 Million total after the PPV and Gate totals will tally in. It will be the most Cotto has ever made in a fight. We know that Cotto received $6 Million guaranteed purse against Manny Pacquiao but we don't know what his upside was. It could not have been that much because Toprank and MP Promotions got a nice share of the PPV and Gate.
It was a no brainer WHY Cotto chose Mayweather. Number 1 he wants to be the first fighter to dethrone the P4P King. Number 2 he will be making his biggest purse to date. Number 3 he did not want to weight drain himself again to fight Pacquiao. In the "147lb" welterweight showdown, Cotto had to come in "under" the weight limit and drain himself down to 145lbs. Even though Pacquiao wanted him at 147lbs this time, Cotto will not risk his health again.

Originally posted by Reloaded View PostNah I dont think its good bro , it really makes Pac look like a first class soft **** , Manny had Cotto his first choice and really wanted the rematch , but a strange thing happened , Cotto is not under a Top Rank contract now , so he dont have to take Pac BS catch weights , so , noiw how is this for major WOW , Cotto told Manny to stick his weight draining catch weight right up his water tight little clacker ,,,, and here is the best bit , Pac ran away looking for 140 pounders ,,, fancy that eh ,,, and Floyd comes along and says no problems Cotto I fight at your comfortable weight where you feel best .
Looks to me like Manny the fraud got exposed a little in this lol .
im glad floyd is finally taking on cotto although one could say he is pac's or margo's leftover.....its still a legit fight...

1.2 mil ppv of $ 60 eac = 72 mil
16,000 seat(MGM) of $1000 ea = 16 mil
88 million total gross....how about the government tax, hbo cut, promotional expenses, etc....
just not possible....
still damn 30 millions is way way to much of what I have expected.... mayweather really wanted to lock the best draw for him besides manny for may 5. manny can pick and fight whoever he wants right now and May vs Cotto will be more lucrative than any other fight right now which at the end is what mayweather wants...
I thought he was going to get from 15 to 18 as much

I would double that add at least another 35ml easyy....... besides that I believe they would do way more than 16 mil on the gate...
