10 Places to Watch the Cotto-Canelo Fight Tonight

10 Places to Watch the Cotto-Canelo Fight Tonight
Courtesy
Puerto Rico's Miguel Cotto takes on Mexico's Samuel "Canelo" Alvarez in a much anticipated bout on Pay-Per-View this weekend. The fight will be broadcast live on Saturday, November 21 at 8 p.m. local time, and it'll cost you $59.99 for standard definition, or $69.99 for HD. Sure, you can splurge to watch the fight at home, or can head out and watch the fight at a local sports bar. Yes, there will be a cover charge, but it will be much less than that pay-per-view fee, leaving more money in the budget for food, booze and beer. 

Here are 10 local joints that will be screening the fight on Saturday. 

The Really Big Screens
Cinemark McCreless Market (4224 S. New Braunfels Ave., 210-532-4459, cinemark.com) will broadcast the fight live on the big screen at 8 p.m., courtesy of Fathom Events.
