I am with you 100% here I love the fact that boxing is on regularly as you do but remember we are cult fans of this sport. We need to attract regualr sports fans to the sweet science, they will not get pumped up watching Billy Irwin or Chucky T, it just won't happen. I also love the guest that they have on since Max left it is great too listen to those guys but boxing is big for the couple hours a week it i on and then forgotten about entirely on regular espn...they never even speak of the sport? I will watch fights all day long but regular sports fans won't, they will however watch Koyta tszyu, they would watch Barerra or Morales if they had some real build up...instead Espn chose to talk about BOwe v. Craven,....they even dedicated an hour on outside the lines to Bowe...this has to change if the sport is going to get better. -
Yeah I wish that there was some boxing shows or a regular schedule of fights on a certain channel, just like regular shows. I liked watching tuesday night fights and friday night fights, but havent seen any on for awhile. I just wish people would start to give boxing some of the sports spot light for once instead of seening the same old stuff and every sports channel.Comment

ESPN is much better now that Max has left...his know it all attitude was grating ,now that his I Max show has been cancelled it's good riddance...watch for ESPNs first PPV show on April 23..its a sizzler and will make the HBO and Showtime boys to take notice..not serve us crap like Barrera vs Fana and put this garbage on PPV...is it just me or is HBO taking their fans for granted and serving us slop lately

they show pool more on espn than boxing even table tennis spelling b contests and even juggling tournaments... it suks how boxing is a cult sport now... we really do need a boxing 247 channel... or a daily report on boxing like nfl live or nba fastbreak...Comment
