yea thats true cotto-mayorga first...

In all seriousness the first fight took place in Vegas and fights there are like Boxing in Mex for Mexican fighters, so I think the second one should be in NY to make it fair, u think?

If Cotto beats Mayorga, the rematch likely will take place in Las Vegas in June.

Arum: Cotto-Margarito Rematch in NY Could Be The Plan

http://www.boxingscene.com/arum-cotto-margarito-rematch-ny-plan--32841

According to Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, the next logical step for both Antonio Margarito and Miguel Cotto - could be a rematch with each other. In 2008, Margarito pulled off the biggest win of his career when he stopped Cotto to capture the welterweight crown for a third time. Since their fight, both boxers have suffered bruising defeats to Manny Pacquiao.

First weekend in June @ MSG (The night before the Puerto Rican Day Parade) would be a great atmosphere for the fight.

Wouldn't that only give Cotto 6 weeks to prepare for the fight? Is that enough time?

Edit: NVM. For some reason I thought the Cotto-Mayorga fight was in April
