Cotto-Canelo purses

The Miguel Cotto vs Saul Canelo Alvarez showdown tomorrow night at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, NV is drawing in some heavy purses. According to the Nevada State Athletic Commission Miguel Cotto will be bringing in $15 million dollars for the fight while Canelo Alvarez will earn around $5 million. Rumors were circulating months ago that Cotto was going to earn around $30 million but those appear to be false. With purses that high and the lack of buzz around the fight, it will make it hard to turn a profit if the PPV sales come in low.
