    A second bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Miguel Cotto might be held on December 1 in Madison Square Garden in New York following the success of the first meeting. Cotto himself mentioned that date for a possible return in 2012 and rejected an offer to fight on September 15 against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, who is without an opponent after injuries to Paul Williams and Victor Ortiz.

    Cotto was in New York City approximately three weeks ago as were those who handle Mayweather Jr., who is currently serving an 87 day sentence in a Las Vegas jail. If Floyd gets out by September, they would be ready to fight on the coast East where Cotto is an idol. And as The Sport Press reported on May 14, the economic success and the closeness of the first fight, where the ‘Money’ praised Cotto, makes a second fight viable. According to a credible source, the date of December 1 is already reserved at the Garden.

    no reason for a rematch, Cotto made it a good fight, but Floyd CLEARLY won

    I'd rather watch Floyd-Lara/Canelo

    I'm up for it.

    I just feel Cotto did the best he could do. I'm not sure what he could do differantly.

    He got beat clearly. It was close but clear.

    Still. It was a good fight, And i'd be up for going new york and getting myself a ticket.

    I don't see what Cotto can do differently if they do have a rematch, it was a competitive fight but Mayweather jr won it clearly.

    It be HUGE in NY. Not to mention, Floyd coming outta jail...might take something out of him. I think it be another entertaining fight. Why not? First fight was pretty damn good.

    First fight was really good but what's the point in a rematch? Floyd won convincingly

    Nice tune up. Cotto x 2 on his resume would look nice.
