    Burns and Martinez are b/c level fighters. As someone as mentions, both would get slaughtered and probably knocked the **** out by an A fighter. There's a huge gap between an A level fighter compared to a B/C.

      yea its weird, some boxing fans seem obsessed with only looking at the negative aspects of the sport instead of appreciating how great it truly is.

      were so used to high level skill, we dont think about how talented even bums in boxing truly are. Guys that we consider 'journeymen' in boxing would flawlessly wipe the floor with your average athletic person in a boxing match.

        No **** sherlock. It wasn't about how good they were, it was about how good the fight was. People seem to forget this is boxing, not all A+ level fights are even all that. Terrific fight, if you cant see that then you have issues!

          The fact that espn3.com streamed the Sturm fight is a good sign.


          Irish, do you have something against streams because streams for the Burns-Martinez fight were beautiful and lag free today?

            They cant predict which fight would be FOTY, But they should be able to have a boxing channel where people can watch live and non-live boxing.

                  Golf is way more popular than boxing and has heavy sponsorship dollars.


                  Sad, but true.

                    I just couldnt find any.

                    I wanted the Sturm-Lorenzo fight on ESPN 360, but I missed Zaveck-Jackie. :/ Figures.
                    I just didnt figure I would even get the chance to watch either, because I go to fight news and generally just quickly check under 'TV fights' and leave it at that, because I dont expect to see it any other way.
