I hope the fight gets made. If it does Boxing Scene top headlines will have it up there right away.

Looks like Gloden boy and Arum worked out everything but changing the fight time so it doesn't compete with GGG vs Canelo replay. A women's soft ball game has to be moved to a earlier time so this fight starts at 8pm est.

If espn doesn't change this they are idoits, no one cares about women's soft ball.

Careful now, otherwise:

Now that I think about it, if ESPN actually did that, they would get some serious backlash. The Huffington Post bloggers would be foaming at the mouth, writing 10 articles a day on the on subject.

They would likely be in violation of the contract they have with whatever conference to show the game. They would also have to discuss it with advertisers that have already paid for commercial time seeing as how women's softball and boxing likely have different audiences (lol).

I hope the fight gets made.

Never thought of it like that. But why can it only be on certain dates? There has to be a way this fight can be made without competing against this or asking networks to cancel that, etc. Me thinks Arum is being a ****.
