A different day of the month – the second Saturday of the month – and the telecast will begin an hour later, but otherwise it will be business as usual as the 20th anniversary celebration of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING continues on July 8 (10 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast). In an excellent main event, Roman "Made in Hell’’ Karmazin defends his International Boxing Federation (IBF) junior middleweight title against former undisputed world welterweight champion Cory "The Next Generation" Spinks. The 154-pound world title fight is promoted by Don King Productions and will take place at Savvis Center in St. Louis, Missouri. In a terrific rematch of streaking, talented cruiserweights in the July 8 co-feature, Steve Cunningham will face Guillermo Jones for the title vacated earlier this year when O'Neil Bell was stripped by the IBF.

I'm worried that if the fight goes to the cards Karmazin won't get a fair shake. The economics involved for St. Louis in Spinks winning could sway the judges to favour Spinks. I hope not though. The last thing boxing needs is another perceived robbery. -
