    Comments Thread For: Magdaleno-Juarez, Beterbiev-Koelling on October 31 on ESPN

    Jessie Magdaleno and Artur Beterbiev will be showcased in separate bouts ESPN will televise October 31 as part of its new partnership with promoter Top Rank Inc. Carl Moretti, Top Rank's vice president of boxing operations, confirmed to BoxingScene.com on Tuesday that Magdaleno will headline the Halloween evening telecast from an undetermined location. In the main event that night, Magdaleno (25-0, 18 KOs), a southpaw from Las Vegas, will make a mandatory defense of his WBO super bantamweight title against Mexico's Cesar Juarez (20-5, 15 KOs).

    Let's hope this is only a temporary dip in star power for Top Rank on ESPN.

    Pacquiao was an HBO PPV headliner. Lomachenko, Crawford were HBO WCB headliners. Magdaleno is HBO BAD undercard fodder.

      I really like Cesar Juarez and expect him to give Magdaleno all he can handle.

          Realistically, who else do they have at TR? No other stars but the guys you initially named.

                  LOL at these ESPN shows that are a "game changer". This is going bad to worse. And of course Top Rank & Arum isn't catching anywhere near the sh^tstorm PBC was catching out of the gate with better, more competitive shows.

                    That is the only concern about this Top Rank/ESPN Partnership! Top Rank Roster is strong at the top but not very deep which is why the Undercards usually suck in which is why it is going to be a lot of mismatches with a few DECENT Big Match Ups sprinkled in between
