Why not, could use more boxing on tv

ESPN really pushing for more fights on the main channel

[sugarsmosley]

this is awesome, two HW title fights on ESPN in the span of a month?

wlad should fight the winner also on ESPN of the arreola-stiverne

lets erase the stigma that fighting on this network means your a bum, it aint friday night fights!!

[JDD1]

Good. Lets hope wlad doesn't stink it up like he did the last 2 times he was on major American TV.

Wlad better not fight like a punk. The last thing American audiences need to see is the heavyweight champion ******ing a vastly over-matched opponent, rather than fighting.

[BUNGALOWS]

Nice. I'll be checking out a Wlad fight. Who would've guessed.

this...i hope everyone who tunes in doesn't see a clinch fest

[The Hammer]

I just hope they won't have notorious Klitschko-hater Teddy Atlas doing the analysis.

Not a bad thing, it just sucks its wlad and not a more entertaining fight.

maybe ESPN is interested because they think Leapai will do something

[Larry the boss]

Nice, good to hear
