According to a recent report by West Coast guru David Avila, a meeting was held on Monday afternoon between Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank to discuss a possible welterweight clash between WBA champion Antonio Margarito and former three-division champ "Sugar" Shane Mosley.

The fight would take place at the tail end of January. Avila notes that Richard Schaefer, CEO for Golden Boy, would be contacting HBO to secure a January date. The fight could end up on regular HBO, depending on how much money the network is willing to spend on the event - but more than likely the fight will head to HBO pay-per-view.

“We just have to work out the numbers with HBO,” said Bob Arum of Top Rank.

A fight with Mosley would be Margarito's lead-in fight for the year, with a Miguel Cotto rematch already planned for early June.
