Schaefer: Mosley-Floyd in the Works

[Greig]

Ha - once Schaefer gets Floyd to stop shitting himself he might try and make the fight.


I just can't wait to hear Floyd ask Shane for random testing. Shane's response will be very, very interesting...


This is starting to resemble a nightmare scenario for Floyd - fight anyone but Shane and you are boxing's pound for pound biggest pussy

Looks like something might have backfired!

[Truth]

all I hope is that Floyd demands the same testing from a known steroid user as he did with an unknown one

Looks like he did, he is now in negotiations with Mosley and is asking the same testing he was of Manny. I don't see how anyone can discredit this move by Floyd, but I'm sure people will find a way.

Lets wait til it's signed sealed and delivered.

Oh wow, business wise this is a risky move for Floyd, but kudos to him for bringing it. I was hoping a March 13th fight, but hey May is still good. It looks like HBO doesn't need to choose between the two fights.

The winner of this fight should fight the winner of CLottey-Pac.

The possibility off having Mosley/Mayweather and Marquez/ TBA in one night is exhilarating.

Imagine if the Hatton/Marquez fight came through.

Good stuff if it happens. I suspect Mosley wouldn't want to just take a few weeks off and go right back into camp so no March.

Boxing gets unexpected shot in the arm with Mayweather-Mosley - Chris Mannix - SI.com

Sometime in the next few days Golden Boy will announce a May fight between Mayweather and Shane Mosley. It's a matchup that became possible when Andre Berto, his personal life rocked by the recent earthquake in his native Haiti, withdrew from his scheduled Jan. 30 bout with Mosley. On Monday, Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer told SI.com that he planned to work around the clock to hammer out a deal, one that will likely include blood testing (Mosley says he will agree to it, and Schaefer believes it's good for the sport) and a split that will guarantee Mayweather the bigger payday. Mosley won't bicker over the details (he's been positioning himself for this fight for more than a year) and Mayweather will jump at the chance to give a look-at-me-I'm-fighting-a-top-welterweight speech in front of a bank of cameras.
