Margarito-Cotto II most likely in New York City, MSG

[Mr. Fantastic]

no empieces brother..

yo no estoy quejandome de que sea alla o no.... alla era donde arum queria poner a cotto y alla lo puso a peliar.....also.. i know is not your fault that las vegas is @ the west...

also is not our fault that the promoters think that fighting the rematch @ the garden makes more $en$e for the fighters!! and once again... tony hasnt complain about anything.. he will fight anywhere.... now its time to bring some action back to ny.. thats all...

this doesnt concern me bro..... is up to the promoters and where the fight bring more money..

in june, puertoricans day eve.... @ the garden will bring more money.... thats what bob is thinking margaritos & cotto promoter

No estoy comensando contigo. All I'm saying is que no se enojen if its in Vegas otra vez. Si pasa en NY pues, es justo, tambien me de excusa para ir a NY .

Well it makes sense.nevada has a much bigger mexican-american community then puerto ricans.
cotto went out there and defended his title.
its only fair marga defends in nyc.
thread starter said vegas was a neutral site.
or you joking?

Vegas is a neutral site on certain occasions.
For this perticular one it isn't because of the deomgraphics of the fans.
It's easier to drive out to Vegas from Los Angeles or if you live in Vegas to watch the fight
then to make arrangments, get time off, buy a plane ticket travel down here and then have to travel back.

I wouldn't mind having the fight here again.. I missed out going to the last one. I would like to go to this one. But I'm just saying.. Vegas ain't neutral for this fight.

I'm not sure if it would be more neutral in New York but I do know Ricans and Mexicans are the 1st and 3rd biggest minority group there.

i don't think alot of people understand how many mexicans live in new york.they're the fastest growing demo in nyc.i don't remember a fight between a pr and a mexican ever going down in nyc so i can't really argue about that.

I hope so to so Cotto can get knocked out in 6 instead of 11.

NYC or LV it doesn't matter, Cotto will recieve the same beat down no matter what.

thats what im saying, cotto will lose regardless were they fight. two man in the ring.

[mellow_mood]

no discussion on that !! just 2 of them......

dont count out cotto!!

[Sin City]

thats what im saying, cotto will lose regardless were they fight. two man in the ring.

Just like Margarito was supposed to win every round and bull doze through Cotto in 6 last time right

[Pullcounter]

thats what im saying, cotto will lose regardless were they fight. two man in the ring.

I think if cotto makes it 12 rounds he will get the win to set up the rubbermatch

I doubt it lands in MSG. MSG can not produce the money a vegas casino can. Anything is possible and i guess it would be nice to see cotto get a chance in front of his people, but i just don't see arum walking away from vegas money. The fight was such a success in vegas if it's not broke why fix it? Either way cotto isn't going to win

MSG in NY seats up to 20,000.
MGM in vegas seats 17,000.

It makes sense to give the underdog 'home field' advantage. Marg got it first time. That was even obvious by listening to the crowd.

BTW, Mexicans are the third largest minority in New York. The only other latinos who are bigger in New York are Ricans and Dominicans.

Good post.

The only way a rematch doesn't happen is if somehow, some way, Shane comes out victorious.

Not according to Arum:

Marg is set for Cotto regardless.

You are lying out of your ass. Like I said, yeah Margo had his people there (It's Vegas.. there is a **** load of Mexicans here) but despite that Cotto still managed to pull a large crowed. I saw plenty of Ricans at the MGM.. of course there was lots of Mexicans (that's to be expected) it's the west coast after all.

Get the *** out of here did you even go to the fight? or were you just wondering around from the outside trying to look in? Cotto fans were far and few between dude don't tell me what was inside the arena when your ass was outside of it. Even just watching the fight you can hear the huge crowd difference in favor of margarito. I counted 8 cotto fans in my section. 6guys behind me and a couple down a few seats the other 200 or so seats were all mexicans bro.
