Judah-Mayweather almost a done deal!

According to sources close to the situation, all Zab Judah has to do is successfully defend his undisputed welterweight crown against Carlos Baldomir on January 7 for his highly publicized April 8 mega-fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr to take place. Boxingtalk understands that Judah and Mayweather have come to terms with their respective promoters and now it's just a matter of documenting those terms for the fight to be a done deal. "Don is currently in Germany, but I think we're there. It's looking good and I'm very optimisitc that we'll get it done shortly," said Bob Arum. Judah and King were both unavailable for immediate comment, but we will continue to keep you updated. REMEMBER WHERE YOU HEARD IT FIRST! (11:00 AM EST)
