I would imagine Al Haymon is interested in this for two reasons. First, it would block Canelo from fighting Cotto and secondly, it would make himself and Mayweather more money than a Mayweather-Khan fight.
Cotto is a promotional and network free agent, so he can do whatever he wants to do and if he doesn’t like the terms Canelo’s team is offering him at minimum this gives him some leverage.
Hearing Haymon has reached out to Miguel Cotto's attorney talking rematch. And we all thought Floyd-Manny was being negotiated! SMH! #boxing

Everything should become clearer during the new year, because all these fights need a massive promotion, so they will have to be announced sooner than later.
