They will make more money in Vegas than anywhere else.

it should be in las vegas. neutral territory and they pay well

Vegas is not neutral territory, not even close!

Where are the Canelo huggers defending this? Cotto said he'd fight anywhere and you have Canelo only demanding Texas. Mexicans are warriors? What a crock of ****. Canelo's a bigger diva than Cotto and he hasn't done **** in boxing. Did he even win a title at 154? Canelo the one time WW champion calling the shots because... he had that big pay once a long time ago. He also had that big rating, strange how Floyd was in some way, shape or form involved with both.

The ref is the commissioners son I believe I heard Jim Lampley say once. That's about all you need to know. He doesn't want to be a ref he just wants the best seat in the house.

They say judges and refs are picked out by the commission and I call bs. Look at how many Canelo fights Levi Martinez has been in. Look him up.

Cotto needs to understand he is the B-Side. Canelo is the boss here. Those are the facts.

As long as it's not New York i don't see the problem.

I'm not sure why he's not a fan of the MGM, but surely there's other places in Vegas that are adequate . I must say though, i've been very underwhelmed by the MGM when i've been.

Lol it should not be in texas.. You know cole will be the ref and canelo will get the easy decision

Canelo Alvarez Next Fight: Saul Alvarez Wants To Face Miguel Cotto in Texas, Not in Las Vegas

If the rumor is true, Mexican boxing superstar Saul "Canelo" Alvarez does not want to stage his next fight in Las Vegas.
Apparently, the 24-year-old boxer, who only bowed down to the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr., wants to face Miguel Cotto in the "Lone Star State" and not in Nevada's famous "Sin City," reported Boxing News 24.
The information about the former World Boxing Association (WBA) and World Boxing Council (WBC) junior middleweight champion' preference came from a tweet by boxing news writer, Steve Kim.
"I've been told this and I believe it to be true, Canelo is not a fan of the MGM Grand. He wants Texas. But it takes 2 to tango #boxing," Kim said via Twitter.

Canelo, who just destroyed James Kirkland via an impressive knockout on May 9, at the Houston baseball stadium, may like Texas' Alamodome in San Antonio better than the MGM Grand Arena because it can pack a larger crowd, noted the boxing news site. Alamodome can reportedly seat 30,000 people compared to MGM Grand's below 17,000 seating capacity.
Yet, a bigger stadium also has its disadvantage. In order for the seats to be filled, the camps may have to sacrifice the price of their tickets.
Canelo may be comfortable fighting in Texas, as he just fought the very sensational match against Kirkland in the state and he has a larger fan base there, too. However, Canelo's choice of venue may only be granted if the 34-year-old Puerto Rican fighter agrees with it.

Cotto's camp has its own venues of choice, according to El Vocero magazine. Cotto's adviser, Gaby Peñagarícano, revealed that the fighter, who defeated Daniel Geale on June 6 in Brooklyn, may face the younger Mexican in November either in New York or Las Vegas.
"There were conversations, but still we have nothing official. I think November could be the month. But October also has some alternatives. We are also more inclined with New York and Las Vegas. Texas, not so much, but it is not ruled, " Peñagarícano told the magazine as quoted by BoxingScene.com.

Who is the REAL fckin "DIVA?" Canelo is acting like a ****... Believing his own hype for getting humiliated against Floyd, robbing Lara and barely beating Trout.


This is the real issue... Canelo wants to dictate and Cotto has been around too long to let a rookie on probation, tell him how to "work..."



Texas huh? In what fckin universe?


**** outta here with your fake "I got freckles doe" superiority complex. Cotto doesn't give a **** about your freckles. That shyt only works with peasants.

[PeasantCrusha]

The subtle duck...


"I got deadlines!"


"Texas or nothing!"






FEAR.

It won't go to a decision. Canelo is going to make Cotto quit.
