They are all but signed to meet May 7 in Las Vegas. Bob Arum's legal problems with Golden Boy Promotions keep Pacquiao from fighting Juan Manuel Marquez.

Manny Pacquiao's promoter said Tuesday he has a "done deal" for the Filipino superstar to next fight Pomona's former three-division world champion Shane Mosley on May 7 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

"Shane has agreed to everything and now we're circulating the paperwork for final signatures, the drafts have been sent to his lawyer," promoter Bob Arum said. "Whether it gets signed tomorrow or the next day, it's done."

The bout matches fighters with a combined 11 weight-class world titles. Pacquiao, 32, just won his record eighth in November with a unanimous decision over Antonio Margarito at Cowboys Stadium in Texas.
