This is a good fight for ESPN.

This is a good fight for ESPN.

Yes also on that card is Urango/Bailey for the IBF 140lb belt.....this is going to be a very good night of boxing.

Woods is tough and I'm sure his experience will allow him hang around in there at the very least. I think this is a good fight, but everything is stacked against Woods.

[Cadillac Man]

This is a GREAT FNF card. This is great match making an I think it's 2 can't-miss fights in terms of action!

When was the last time there was a championship bout on ESPN?

Let's see if Tavoris Cloud can follow the likes of Devon Alexander (beating the British former champion of the vacant belt).

If Woods beats someone who no one has ever heard of it shows the state of US boxing?

Good fight, good test for cloud. Whoever said cloud is a hype job needs to look dude up, Woods is a good fighter, and i think this will definitely be a good measuring stick, but i just don't think woods has the power, ring savy, or head movement to win. Cloud throws with murderous intent, he always comes in shape, and so far his power has not faded in a fight. Now yes he has fought a majority of lesser comp, but i honestly think he's the goods - That IBF strap will put him and the boxing world on notice for some good fights down the road, because Cloud is a fan friendly fighter - similar to glen johnson (pressure . pressure. pressure, with ring smarts. - can't wait till friday!!
