    Pretty decent for their first card on a Friday night. I liked the black canvas.

    And remember would have been better if Peter Ducklin didn't turn down $1.4m.

    Anyway, their stable is growing obviously by absorbing Shaws fighters and signing Andre Ward. I'll be curious to see how they grow. Now that they have Jennings you figure they'll be able to bring Klitschko to New York on HBO.

      more boxing to watch - amazing.
      What I actually liked the anthem. I was happy she kept 98% original and didn't rnb it up I hate that shlt. Not bad for a first card just hope all them don't have on tv concerts which I doubt they will.

          ^^^^

          Didn't watch it but why the hate for Fab, he's cool been in the game 15 years got lots of hits and one of the remaining relevant MCs that's nice with the bars.

          Was it Fab with 4 songs ? If so probably because he just released a album and hes a Roc client so Roc sports will do allot of cross promotion with their artist During the fights.

              name me some of the fighters who were on it?

              cos outside of the US and hip hop fans I'm not sure if anyone is that bothered by Roc Nation. I'd like to see them put on a big fight for Ward with a top opponent and see how they do in the big, bright lights.

                  Turreano Johnson - the guy who lost to Stevens last round ko- scored a ko victory. Relentless. Fought like Tyson and Frazier. Opponent suffered leg injury and doctor stopped it in between rounds but he would have been stopped anyway.

                  Dusty Harrison is the goods. Too much class , strength and power for his opponent

                  And this debutant fought.formerly Highly ranked amateur

                    I thought it was terrible. Embarrassing for Jay-z to call on all those people to come out for that. awful debut for roc nation. terrible mismatches below espn level ****. live rap sucks except for very few artists like method man, the roots, and Q-tip. Should of waited till he had better match ups to launch IMO and hired the Roots to perform. Hopefully he learns from this as a starting point. I'm sure Ward was thinking twice about signing with those guys are seeing that...should be some dates opening for him on showtime though...
