Well, according to TMZ.

The report states:

"A source involved in the negotiations tells TMZ Sports both fighters have agreed to fight and a date and location (Vegas) have already been set.The source says the formal agreement has not been signed but everyone expects the signatures “soon.” Negotiators are putting “finishing touches” on the deal."

There have been numerous reports throughout the past few weeks that Pacquiao had already agreed to take the fight. He was just waiting on Floyd Mayweather to do the same. Apparently, a meeting between the two men during a Miami Heat game accelerated talks.

Now, they will get to put their differences behind them and move forward with a big money fight.

The belief is that Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao will take place on Cinco de Mayo weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. However, the date and location has not been confirmed.

We will just have to wait for an official announcement about the fight — which could come as early as Super Bowl Sunday. What better way to announce to the world that a fight they have been waiting for is about to go down?
