Undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. has reportedly signed the contract to fight World Boxing Association welterweight champion Shane Mosley, according to AOL Boxing Fanhouse. The fight will take place at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada, on May 1st. Mosley, 38, already signed the contract to fight Mayweather a week ago. Mosley, his attorney and Golden Boy Promotions were worried after Mayweather failed to sign his part of the contract, and there was doubts in the minds of some people that Mayweather might be having second thoughts about the Mosley fight.
Judd Burstein, the attorney for Mosley, said “Richard Schaefer [the CEO of Golden Boy Promotions] just called me and told me that Al Haymon [Mayweather’s advisor] called him, and it’s [the signed contract] is being faxed.” This is really great news. It means now that Golden Boy Promotions can start marketing the Mayweather-Mosley fight, and boxing fans can start getting excited about this fight. This is the best fight that can be made at this time, aside from a future Mayweather-Pacquiao bout.
