    I hate saying this...but I'ma keep it 100...

    Tonight, 5/31, was supposed to be the PPV card of Shane Mosley and Zab Judah, and because one is an idiot, we are left in the wind...ok

    Instead, on CBS, we have an EliteXC card (mma) live featuring Kimbo Slice, a former internet street fighting star

    That's right, a 2nd/3rd rate mma organization gets a "Saturday Night Fights" Live Broadcast CBS showing on a 9pm slot

    While Wed night fights 9-times-outta-10 gets pushed back due to baseball, women's softball, etc and Friday Night Fights 7-times-outta-10 gets pushed back due to soccer, college lacrosse, tennis, nascar, etc.

    Where is the love and respect for boxing? How does boxing expect to gain new fans if THERE IS NO BOXING for viewers to watch? Not everybody has nor wants to shell out $50 for PPV boxing...not everybody has HBO/Showtime...only hardcore fans know FNF/WNF exists

    I'm not tryna re-open a MMAvsBOXING contest, I'm not hating on MMA nor trying to criticize the sport of Boxing...but

    As a major fan of Boxing, I just don't see the sport getting any type of respect until it becomes organized.

    *For the record I will be watching the EliteXC card, but would've ordered the SSM card cause I'ma huge SSM fan*

    The first fight on the "Main Event" of the EliteXC card .... was amateur.

    It looked like a Tough Guy Contest from the early 90's.

        Second match (Baroni versus whoever) wasn't much better.

        Again, looked a lot like a State Fair tough guy contest.

                  Totally Agree.

                  The preliminary matches gave us better quality fights. These Main Card fights are not tactical at all. No real MMA yet tonight.
