Looks like ESPN is going to start airing some "classic" replays....

Tomorrow ESPN2 has DLH-Chavez I, Pacquiao-Margarito and Pryor-Arguello II on its schedule.

Nice! I know ESPN were going to put up classic fights on demand but airing them on ESPN2 tonight is a good look for boxing. They also had broner and Garcia at first take last week. You have 2 cards live this weekend on the main ESPN channel friday and saturday. ESPN is really giving a lot of attention to boxing right now.

ESPN will have replays of Crawford-Lundy and Lomachenko-Martinez on ESPN2 tonight just prior to the Herrera-Soto Karass fight on ESPN.

Also looks like there's a bunch of Lomachenko fights On Demand.

Thomas Hauser suggests Top Rank lost their investor...

It was also understood that Top Rank would have acdess to a third-party venture capital fund that would provide financial assistance for the signing and development of fighters. But the venture capital investor is believed to have pulled out of the deal at the last minute leaving Top Rank in the position of asking ESPN for more money (which might not be forthcoming), finding another investor, or digging deeper into its own pockets to finance it's portion of the venture.

Crawford doesn't seem to be happy...

Glad everyone seen and notice the difference between how ESPN promoted my fight compared to the other two fights before me
