Cotto vs Mayweather in Madison Square Garden. Fingers crossed.
No way will they fight in MSG, for the same reason Pac & Hatton didn't fight in Wembley. The money the casinos put up is just too valuable. That's why the big fights will continue to be there. The MGM Grand could give away all the tickets as comps & probably still make a tidy profit from what people spend in the casinos & shops throughout the day.

Anyway, according to this whoever wins it appears Arum simply doesn't want to do the deal with Mayweather. In fact, he doesn't even want to bother trying to negotiate.

Pacquiao-Mayweather Unlikely For 2010, Says Arum - Boxing News
Because Mayweather will be difficult to negotiate with his trash talks.

They want Mayweather but Mayweather seems to be avoiding Pac. Before Mayweather fought MArquez, team Pacquaio including Arum was asking Mayweather to wait for just one day so Mayweather vs Pac could happen. MAyweather instead declared his fight vs Marquez on the same day Pac vs Hatton was weighed in for their fight (hope my memory does not fail me on this).

This is the reason why Arum is doubting Pac vs Mayweather would happen.

In case Pac demolishes Cotto impressively, Mayweather won't be fighting Pac for sure.... and we know why...
