    ---------------------------
    if both Cotto and Margarito agree to 8-ounces, they will waive the rule for this fight in Las Vegas on July 26th

    Cotto will be in Vegas on Tuesday to meet with Top Rank

    Full story will be up later

    i dont really like fights in vegas unless de la hoya is fighting, there is a different atmosphere when tito or cotto fight in MSG.

    Apparently, Vegas has agreed to ammend the rule. WW's can now fight with 8 oz. gloves if both fighters agree to wear them. If they don't agree on the gloves, 10 oz gloves will be used. The Margo/Cotto fight will now probably take place at the MGM Grand
