Mayweather Mosley Fight is Signed!

Floyd Mayweather finally signed the agreement to fight Shane Mosley on May 1st of this year. After some tense moments when we were all wondering whether or not Floyd would sign the contract, he finally signed it. Luckily, this does not look like another Manny Pacquiao Floyd Mayweather scenario. Shane is certainly one of the best welterweights in the world today despite losing to Miguel Cotto recently. Both fighters are already claiming supremacy with the Super Bowl fast approaching expect some major promotions for this fight and the Roy Jones Jr. Bernard Hopkins rematch set for April.

I'm glad I didn't fall into the trap of thinking that the break up of the Floyd Manny fight was a nuclear bomb for boxing. I knew it wasn't and I'm being proven right with recent news. I expect the Floyd Pacman fight to happen later this year and be even bigger than it would have been in March. I'm a little disappointed that Dan Raphael was hinging boxing's "nuclear" destruction on one fight and am glad that has now been proven wrong. There are still many great fights that can be made in boxing and that will not change in a long time.
