The first season of The Contender.

Bob Arum always talks about getting boxing back on network tv, but has done nothing.

The last fight ABC aired was the June 17, 2000 fight between Jose Luis Castillo and Stevie Johnston. CBS in the late 90's, and NBC had the Contender a few years back as well as the Golden Boy spring series about 5 years ago

That's wrong man, I remember watching a Rocky Juarez fight when he was on the come up on a Saturday afternoon. I just don't remember if it was ABC or NBC, I'm leaning towards the A though.
