Floyd Mayweather Sign Today For Mosley

FanHouse has learned that Floyd Mayweather is expected to sign his contract today for the May 1 bout against Shane Mosley, cementing their welterweight (147 pounds) clash at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, which is likely to be officially announced today, if not, this week.

The 32-year-old Mayweather is a five-time champion with a spotless record of 40-0, 25 knockouts, and the 38-year-old Mosley is the WBC welterweight super champion with a mark of 46-5, and 39 KOs.

Mayweather and Mosley already had agreed to the deal points, with Mosley signing for the bout to happen on Friday after a meeting with his attorney, Judd Burstein, in Las Vegas.

Among the points agreed to by both fighters is Olympic-style, random blood-testing and urinalisys for steroid and illegal drug detection, and an immediate rematch for Mayweather in the event he loses.

Mayweather is coming off of September's unanimous decision victory over Juan Manuel Marquez. When the fighters enter the ring, Mosley will be ending a nearly 14-month layoff since a Jan. 24, 2009, ninth-round knockout victory over Antonio Margarito.
