The chief executive of Golden Boy Promotions said today he has ‘finalized’ a deal to match Pomona’s Shane Mosley (46-5, 39 KOs) versus Andre Berto (26-0, 19 KOs) in a world welterweight title unification bout on Jan. 30 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
Richard Schaefer said he expects contracts to be signed this week.
Mosley, who aspires to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. and/or Manny Pacquiao, had a TKO victory over Antonio Margarito earlier this year.
Schaefer also told The Times on today that Bernard Hopkins will fight Enrique Ornelas on Dec. 2 in Philadelphia. If he wins, as expected, Hopkins will fight Roy Jones Jr. sometime in 2010.
