I believe Vargas's comeback fight wont be televised as it is a tune up and probably a no ranked guy since he is testing the middleweight waters.
Other than that a decent schedule depending on how the opponents are....
Bombardier 11-03-2004, 12:30 PM If Bernard takes that date it seems like it will be Sturm for sure. No way he takes on Tito now.
Do we know Floyd and Vernon's opponents yet? Are either of them planning on fighting for titles?
Explosivo 11-03-2004, 12:33 PM Looks like a pretty good line up to me. Hopefully shortly after that we get to see a Pacquio fight with Morales.

I think HBO is going to show the Vargas fight because I seen a poster for it.

diz82 01-01-2005, 08:32 PM What has Vargas done to deserve a HBO date??
IwatchBoxing 01-01-2005, 08:34 PM makes sense there all Don King fightersMaybe they want to hype the crowd by having a riot before the Main Event.
jack_the_rippuh 01-01-2005, 08:51 PM So what's the real deal with Danny Williams?
I thought he wanted to retire, is he done or doens't he want Vitali one more time?
IwatchBoxing 01-01-2005, 09:01 PM So what's the real deal with Danny Williams?
I thought he wanted to retire, is he done or doens't he want Vitali one more time?Well Danny and Tyson should rematch since both were "injured" in their last fights to see who really should move forward.
Truth 01-02-2005, 09:29 AM I believe Vargas's comeback fight wont be televised as it is a tune up and probably a no ranked guy since he is testing the middleweight waters.
Other than that a decent schedule depending on how the opponents are....

damonbleed 01-02-2005, 05:35 PM I want to see Jermaine Taylor against a person who will be at least ranked in the top five or a tough hard hitter like Mendoza or Echols.
