Sources close to the situation have advised BoxingScene.com that ongoing discussions are taking place to match former champions Shane Mosley (46-6, 39KOs) and Sergio Mora (22-1-1, 6KOs) on September 18, with Staples Center in Los Angeles as the likely venue. Mora has a fight scheduled on July 23 against JC Candelo.

If an agreement can be reached, I've heard the fight would take place at a catch-weight of 154-pounds, where both fighters are former champions. Mosley's last couple of fights have been at welterweight, and Mora moved back to the middleweight division. I've heard some talk about unbeaten prospect Saul "Canelo" Alvarez making a possible appearance in the co-feature.
