Francisco Vargas vs Orlando Salido nearly done for June 4

A guaranteed all-action fight between WBC super featherweight titleholder Francisco Vargas and veteran brawler Orlando Salido is nearly set for June 4 at the magical StubHub Center in Carson, California, according to Lance Pugmire of the LA Times.

Vargas (23-0-1, 17 KO) has yet to sign the contract for the fight, which is said to be the only hold-up as of now, but he is expected to do so. He's coming off of a Fight of the Year victory over Takashi Miura on November 21, where he won his 130-pound title in a brilliant, bloody instant classic.

Salido (43-13-3, 30 KO) had two Fight of the Year contenders last year, both against Rocky Martinez. He lost to Martinez in April, then fought to a draw with him in a September rematch.

TV details haven't been stated, but one figures the fight would be on HBO.
