    Blew my mind. Seems to me to be a big deal, No matter what the capacity. Boxing is back on Network TV.

      Especially since it's Cunningham of all US Heavyweights; not that it's a bad thing, I've always enjoyed watching USS box, but I assumed it was NBC sports as well.

          Very good heavyweight slugfest to bring back the masses! First fight was epic.

            Apparently it was because his promoter Oner wasn't satisfied with the contract.

            Solis didn't find out the fight was off until after the negotiations broke down, so we shouldn't blame him. Oner is the one to blame.

              First fight was a barn burner and I'm expecting an exact copy this time around. Adamek isn't the biggest puncher at heavyweight and Cunningham can still box, both of them will be fighting like men possessed.

              Adamek UD in a excellent fight.

              As for Solis; his career is going to end before it begins.

                What's your prediction?
                should be a good fight but adamek has now been taking HW shots for a few years & has worked hard to get to a solid 220. cunningham doesn't have the power, chin or size to compete with the big boys. he's tall but only 208-210. i'm sure you know already but kathy duva says solis wanted too much money. he priced himself out.

                  No, Kathy Duva said Ahmet Oner priced Solis out.

                  Odlanier Solis wanted the fight, he didn't even find out it was off until the next day.

                      I expect a repeat of the first one.
