During a recent interview with the Las Vegas Review Journal, promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank said that Las Vegas was the best choice to host the anticipated welterweight war between WBA champion Miguel Cotto (32-0, 26KOs) and challenger Antonio Margarito (36-5, 26KOs). The fight takes place on July 26 at the MGM Grand. HBO pay-per-view will televise. [details]

Tijuana Tornado was on the undercard of cotto-pinto and lost to Daniel Santos, I want the mayweather fight to be in New York so I can go it'll be a much bigger event there, I say.Comment

I still don't understand the theory that Cotto-Tony on the West Coast will help PPV numbers. Why would location matter? Attendance, I can understand. But where a fight lands has little to no bearing on who orders it.
Of course, Arum has forgotten more than any of us will ever know. But I've yet to make the connection.Comment

its been hard enough to just get the fight. u think if it happens, floyd would fight cotto in his own backyard? nah, floyd aint fightin nowhere but vegas-unless he is really serious about fighting hatton in england, which i just cannot fathom.......Comment

I think this fight would have done better in MSG. You know how many PRs would have been there just out of NYC alone? Not to mention, plenty of Mexicans around here also. It's obvious, it's just about the ******** the casinos will gain from having it in Vegas, and hotels. PPV #s wouldn't matter where it's held.Comment
