Anyone know if this fight's going to be on FSN here in Australia??? FSN in the States will be broadcasting it live on FSN at 8pm P/T.

I'll have a look thru the program later, it might be on delay perhaps at a much later day.

Fox sports were replaying showtime cards on a week or so delay last year.

You're probably right. I remeber watching Toney v Robinson back in 2002 two weeks after actual fight. They're showing a light heavy bout live on ESPN and they're not gonna show a Heavyweight fight live including JT?

Foxtel need to get their act together.

Yeah they do, I've be saying that for a while. ESPN fights are a little different, because they usually air on ESPN in the states, FOX just need to start bringing in more fights.

I couldn't find anything, sometimes they will update it much closer to the event. I doubt Foxsports Aust will bother broadcasting it, because they're a bunch of slack greedy cunts when it comes to boxing.

None are here.

It's a Cruiserweight bout on ESPN. Looks like Foxtel will show the Toney v Rahman fight a month later. I can't understand why they'd show a pointless fight between two journeymen over a HW fight???

Toney v Rahman will be starting around 1pm Thursday AEST.

Could not agree more mate.
These 2 guys are well past it and the HW division has been a joke for years.
Rahman is approaching 36 and Toney turns 40 this month. If they weren't heavyweights no one would give a ****.

ah the heavies arent too bad.. or so ive been hearing.. they just arent as black and flashy anymore.

these two though.. definitely past it. toney has done great things and 'the rock' has had his moments. dont think this one will produce anything though

Toney's in the best shape since the Holyfield fight. He's had hard luck with injuries over the years i.e. achilles, torn triceps and illness. He says he's 110%fit and ready to go, he'll stop Rahman in later rounds after going on long-service leave.
