OMAHA, Neb. -- The manager for Terence "Bud" Crawford (23-0, 16KOs) says an agreement in principle is in place for the WBO lightweight champion to fight in his hometown of Omaha next month against Yuriorkis Gamboa (23-0, 16KOs).

Cameron Dunkin said Friday night that a contract is yet to be signed, but he added that "it will be a fun time" for Omaha to host a world title fight for the first time since heavyweight champion Joe Frazier beat Ron Stander in 1972.

The Crawford-Gamboa bout is planned for June 28 at the CenturyLink Center. Crawford won his WBO title in March with a win over Ricky Burns in Glasgow, Scotland. Gamboa is the interim WBA lightweight champ.
