Breaking News : Boxing back on NBC/Versus

[Battle*Hardened]

I got VS so cool, but NBC needs to get involved, and 100k? Who is that going to get, lets be real. Not to mention what promotion got the deal? Gay. Why the fuck cant golden boy get a deal?

Main events dont got no fighters wtf...Adamek vs bums.

My man onechance called this. Judah, Julio, and Adamek do not in any way need to be representing boxing to network television in America, but we aren't going to get those guys given the budget. Main Events doesn't have a large pool of fighters. Boxing on network television, with Tarvis Simms in the main event.

I don't see this going well.

Are these only going to be Main Event fighters fighting?

Considering only 7 are listed on their roster I hope not.

I hope this becomes a nice platform for Boxing and gets solid ratings. There is nothing more I would love than to see good competitive fights on NBC.

Main events has great relationships with all other promotional companies so I expect to see some good fights. If nothing more it gives more space soa BHop/Dawson type fight could get more exsposure.

I don't see how this is big news. 100K doesn't do anything anymore and Versus had boxing before. Nowhere does it say NBC will 100% show fights.

We might get more FNF type fights, which is good, but it's not what boxing needs. They need BAD type cards on network TV which is probably more in the 7 figures per show than a measly 100K.
