Mayweather and Mosley Agree to Terms for Fight

It looks more likely that Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley will be fighting later this year. According to Mayweather's manager the two fighters have agreed to terms to fight. This is great news for boxing as this is probably the second biggest fight in boxing at the moment. It also puts Mayweather up against a true top welterweight for the first time. Mosley is 38 years old so probably getting past his prime but was still solid in his last fight a year ago against Antonio Margarito. You have to assume Mosley will be up for this fight given his strong desire to secure a fight against either Manny Pacquiao (pound for pound king) or Mayweather.

Given Mayweather's lack of interest in fighting top welterweights, it is far from certain that this fight will happen until we have final confirmation on the fight details. For now things look very positive.
