    If this happens, it will only work if big names get involved. Some of these fights need to be PPV caliber fights, or this is pointless. Putting fights that would be undercard fights on ESPN would do nothing to help.

        EWWW big names on NBC?? Gross. I will personally email NBC right now to scare them and tell them the show will be a waste of money and that they will fail and take time to write an intelligent essay of why.

          Its only great if the fights that are made for the event are good.

          The last thing you want is tons of people watching terrible boxing matches.

          It will end up hurting more than doing good.

                So, we have something to watch since there won't be basketball this fall or spring next year.

                And here I am becoming a fan of Top Gear USA.

                Who watched the episode today for Top Gear USA?

                I was laughing the whole freaking time.

                    The show is on History Channel.

                    I expected nothing of this Top Gear USA since every time I go online people criticize it and I'm a fan of the UK version.

                    But still, I have to give it to them the show was hilarious.

                    Also, the challenge was to drive a 4x4 vehicle of their choice from California to Las Vegas, NV by off-roading and not letting the tires hit pavement/asphalt in certain areas.

                    Also, great choice of show Walking Dead should be supported like crazy but people should give Top Gear USA a chance it is funny.

                      In this day and age, I think it's highly unlikely we'll ever see fighters who make millions fighting on network television, certainly not a Pacquiao or Mayweather. I think the best we can hope for is seeing fighters like Nonito Donaire, Brandon Rios, and Tavoris Cloud etc... young champions with exciting styles, who aren't making megabucks.
