I was just at ESPN.com and the fight card they had listed for Saturday night's PPV was:

Mayweather - Gatti
Harris - Maussa
Calderon - Verde
Chavez Jr - Galvan

No mention of the Brock fight. What gives?

Because it's percieved to be such a mismatch. Brock's promoters should have picked a better opponent to showcase his skills and to get him some recognition. He's not gonna get much fighting Kraven.

I think the reason they arent showing it is because no one cares about Calvin Brock vs Kenny Craven. Seriously, who the hell would even watch that for free?

kenny craven is 20somin and 15 he has been knocked out 15 times. saturday will be the 16th and it will happen in round 1. id like to see giovanni lorenzo last time gatti fought i saw him fight dennis sharpe on the undercard he anhilated sharpe. sharpes corner through in the towel in the 1st.sharpe was previously undefeated he looks like he has some potential.

For Calvin Brock, even though it's a fight to stay active, I think this fight against Kraven is a step in the wrong direction.
Surely, his promoters could have come up with a better opponent for him to showcase his skills against while gaining some name recognition. What about all these Russian fighters out there like Valuev, Lickovich, Oleg, etc. that he could fight?

I'd rather watch that than the Chavez Jr. spectacle...
