Expect an announcment from Mundine’s camp on Thursday that the fight between Anthony Mundine and future Hall of Famer Sugar Shane Mosely is back on and likely to be November 27 at All Phones Arena in Sydney.

Mosley also confirmed via Twitter that he’s likely to come back to Sydney for the fight. “Yes, it look(s) like Australia,” Mosley said when responding to a fan.

It is understood that Mundine and Manager Khoder Nasser have guaranteed an amount greater than the original A$1 million promised.

The previous bout fell over when previous promoter Vlad Warton did not pay the outstanding balance which resulted in a shock departure of Mosley heading back to the US.

Mundine was left rueing what might have been as he focuses on tryign to get his career back on track.

Mundine will promote the fight given his previous success in promoting his fights. It will be interesting to see if ticket sales and interest in this fight grow as the prior fight had garnered limited interest from the public with limited seat sales and pay-per-view pickup prior to fight night.

This fight is seen by many as Mundine’s last shot and a loss will ultimately end any future desire to be a name in the US fight game.

At present he is an unknown fighter in the US but a win over Mosely who has fought the best in the business would certainly attract some attention from the US.

With that said Mundine is a long way off a fight with the likes of Mayweather.

Expect plenty of media coverage from Fenech and co as the Mundine vs Mosely fight kicks off again.
