Before Christmas, Shane Mosley and Manny Pacquiao will cement the deal for their upcoming welterweight 12 rounder fight where Manny Pacquiao is the current WBO Super Champion. Pacquiao vs. Mosley will be held on May 7, 2011 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Shane Mosley has agreed to everything with only the final paperwork to close the deal.
Shane Mosley was chosen to fight Pacquiao because of Mosley’s starpower. Mosley is better known than the other two candidates, which included Juan Manuel Marquez and Andre Berto. Bob Arum said Pacquiao liked Mosley and he deserved to be his foe in the welterweight bout because he is famous and he can generate more pay-per-view buys because of his bigger fan base.
Mosley wanted this fight for a long time and he believes that he still have the power and speed to knock out Pacquiao because he’s bigger than and he promised to hit him on the chin at some point.
Arum thinks that even if Shane Mosley, 39, is getting a little older, his skill and speed will still challenge Manny Pacquiao, 32.
A press conference in January will be held Pacquiao vs. Mosleybout in the US followed by a four-city media tour in February in the following cities: Los Angeles, New York, Washington and San Francisco.
The tickets for Pacquiao vs. Mosley fight in Las Vegas would become available next month.

This Pacquiao vs Mosley fight will surely be a a toe-to-toe boxing fight. Pacquiao and Mosley are both fighters of high caliber and both have displayed the courage and tenacity to go all out against their respective opponents. Lawyers of both camps are still in the process of reviewing the agreement after which the agreement will have to be signed in full by Pacquiao and Mosley.
this fight is going to be garbage. any real boxing fan knows it. moselys to old now and hes not like he was before. after mosely destroyed margorito. mosely was calling out pacquiao and pac was scared as shit to even fight him. now since mosely did horrible in his last two fights and is in a decline of his carreer. thats when pacman wants to fight him. cuz pacman knows mosely doesn’t got it anymore and it will be an easy fight.
