D.Rafael: "Cotto-Tony II in new Giants Stadium on June 11. JCC Jr fights the winner"

My point is that Arum wouldnt put the fight in New York if it didnt make financial sense.

Yeah agree of course but do you think Cotto would accept a fight with Margarito or Chavez JR in the Home Depot Center for the Cinco De Mayo

Yes if Margs or Chavez were the bigger draws and thats where Top Rank wanted the fight he would. The first Margs Cotto fight was in Vegas which has a lot more Mexicans then PRs

The fact that the fight only sold 10,400 seats and that Prs were equal to Mexicans in the crowd(from your estimate) doesnt bode well for Mexican fight fans in Vegas. If the fight was in New York the crowd would no doubt be mostly PRs and there is a much larger Mexican population here then there is a PR population in Vegas.

Yeah but Penalosa and Concepcion wouldnt draw in a neutral venue against Juanma thats why the fights were made in PR.

Yeah in Cali it would probably sell much better then Vegas and could probably do similar numbers to NY.
