    ESPN: BOXING to be on NETWORK TV?!

    http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3455230


    hmmmmmmmmmm. idk. It would be amazing for boxing if its all true. As long as the main event isnt TARVER, or like FORREST-MORA, id be great with it.

    If the fights dont make it onto the network TV, the article says the promos might make onto College and NFL football games.

    That would be great for the sport.

          i forgot the "nt" lol. i edited it though.

          Imagine though, Israel Vazquez - Rafale Marquez 4, fighting in front of a Network TV audience? Or simply having the fact that the fight is happening exposed to the network tv audience? that would be a beautiful thing. those guys deserve it.

              Well if Top rank does this, hopefully Golden Boy joins the bandwagon. I'm just glad there might be more advertisements to get people to tune in.

                  Needs to happen, hope they can work something out.

                  I heard Boxing is doing phenomenal ratings in Mexico.

                              I agree it needs to happen.

                              but it wont happen on CBS

                              Moonves putting boxing on CBS would mean it would cost money to compete with EliteXC.

                              If it is ABC or NBC or FOX it would be way better.
