    Will The Fight Being In The MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada play a role on the outcome...

    Will The Fight Being In The MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada play a role on the outcome of the Fight?

    Miguel Cotto will be back to MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada. The last time Cotto was there you all know what happen. Well I was wondering if Miguel Cotto will have any Goosebumps after stepping back to the same city and perhaps the same locker room where he suffered his 1st defeat.

    After all Miguel has only fought there in two previous occasions, one which was long ago before he had any fame.

    But are there any real reasons for concern for Cotto's return to the MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada?

    Well, Manny Pacquiao will be fighting his third fight in a row in the MGM las Vegas Nevada. Pacquiao now is being more like the host for Las Vegas Nevada and is more likely to fight there contrary to Cotto who likes to fight in Madison Square Garden. So it isn't foolish to believe that Pacquiao could be favor there to win in case of a close fight.

    Add to the fact that there are many who want Manny Pacquiao to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. so they can built up the who's the real Number 1 Pound for Pound fighter. Mayweather Jr. is also from Las Vegas Nevada.

    Manny Pacquiao might be good enough to win by K.O. or Decision, but is there not any reason to believe that Cotto's only way to victory is a K.O?
    I Think So.

    Will being in the MGM Grand las Vegas Nevada play a role on the fight? Especially if the fight goes to distance?
    Will Pacquiao be favor in a close Decision?
    Thoughts?

    The location of the venue will have no impact on the fight. The MGM will be filled with Filipino's though and I'm sure it will be a Manny Pacquiao crowd. I was there for the Oscar vs Manny fight and the MGM, which has historically been Oscar's house, belonged to Manny that night. Miguel will be in Manny's house on NOV 14.

        No impact. It won't go to cards and that experience is behind Miguel.

                Margarito started a career there, but pretty much ended in his next fight.
                Product of having something and then losing it it.

                  If Cotto is winning and the fight goes 12 rounds he'll be robbed thats for sure.

                  Manny will have his next fight in Las Vegas in the MGM Grand while Cotto will fight in Madison Square Garden. Of course they'll rob the fight so Pacquiao can bring them more money to Vegas. Cotto will lose again in Vegas. They'll screw him again.
