BY STEPHEN S. JOHNSON (IB-April 21, 2010) Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard "Tricky Dick" Schaefer was forced to finally admit what we all knew, or at least suspected yesterday afternoon.
The bout May 1, 2010, between Shane Mosley and Floyd Mayweather, Jr. will NOT be for Mosley's WBA welterweight title because Mayweather refuses to pay the WBA sanctioning fees, according to Schaefer.
"The WBA welterweight belt will not be awarded to the winner on May 1st. The fight will be just the two best fighters fighting", said Schaefer.
The WBA has several options one of which is should Mosley win, the belt is unaffected, but if he were to lose, the WBA could elect to simply vacate the title. (more)
