    Boxing fans get hosed by ESPN again! What can we do?

    We all know Espn screwed us last night by advertising fights all week then deciding to air a l******** college baseball game instead. This is the 500th time they've done this. What can we do besides piss and moan on the internet about it?

    It may have been a regional decision. On another messageboard I read the guys there were following it live so apparently they were getting it. I got the College World Series as well but they did re-air FNF just a few hours later.

    EDIT: I read it was on ESPN Classic live.

      I just versus does more cards, and takes ESPN's place. Their coverage is a lot better!

        I watched it on ESPN Classic after the versus fights.

        It was live there. If you don't have Classic, you should get it.

            I was waiting to watch this on ESPN2 and I had no idea it was switched to ESPN Classic and by the time I realized this, they were in the 9th round of the main event. It really ******. ESPN is always doing stuff like this. We are treated like red headed step children.

                    I see his point. If you promise to air boxing, you should air boxing. Who cares if they got Game 7 if the NBA finals, they said they were going to air boxing and they should have.

                    However, they still did air the fights live on ESPN CLASSIC
