This series is great for boxing and I'm glad they are focusing on some upcoming American heavyweight boxing.

this whole NBC thing is powered by Peltz, thre most under-rated promo in the world...I remeber years ago, late '70s & early ''80s how he had Philly on the map...he had one guy Charlie Brown,tremendous potential but never developed, but JR gave him the shot, that is what good promos do...good luck JRP...

By Jake Donovan - Kathy Duva and her Main Events promotional company didn’t quite know what to expect once the initial one-year, four-fight deal with NBC Sports Network ran out.

Thankfully, she won’t have to worry about that for at least the next two years.

NBC Sports agreed to extend its ‘Fight Night’ series another two years, to run through 2014. In addition, the series received an upgrade of a guaranteed minimum of six fights per season, up from the four slots Main Events was promised for the inaugural season.

In addition, a promise was made of up to two shows per year to air live on its flagship station NBC. [Click Here To Read More]

Awesome news!

terrific news

there have been some nice little fights on there, and jennings is coming along nicely on their airwaves in front of our eyes.

if they keep matching these guys tough like they've been doing it's only a matter of time until they get a classic on free TV.

it goes without saying that you'd be doing a huge service to the sport by putting a great fight on free TV where the casual fan can watch without investing money.

NBC seems to know what they are doing. I like it.

Good boxing news for a change - great stuff.

More boxing on TV, especially free TV is good for everyone.

!!!!
Cheaper seats at live cards as well, while we're at it - let's bring boxing right back to it's roots!

This is great news! NBC Sports get more viewers and boxing fans get more fights to watch.

A win-win situation!
