I agree that Arum should take advantage of the situation and air some Top Rank Live fights over here in the US straight from the Phils. That would be good. The more boxing from around the World that I could see; the better... Even if it's in a different language it doesn't matter because boxing is truly universal.

too bad that alot of countries outside the u.s. (with the exception of bordering neighbor mexico) dont have the easy access to spot light that the u.s./mexico boxer have...if mexico was way out in the east, do you think julio chavez sr/barera/morales/marquez would be as recognized as they were/are right now? i bet not. im sure 3/4 of the more established mexican fighters would be unknown.
