    North American boxing fans missing out., we need these fights on PPV (or SOMEWHERE)!

    Look at these solid (and in the case of Abraham-Miranda and Kessler-Beyer, spectacular) fights that North American fans will not get to see live:

    Saturday: Johnson/Woods III plus Amir Khan
    Sept. 23: Abraham/Miranda
    Oct. 14: Kessler/Beyer
    Oct. 14: Calzaghe/Bika plus Johnny Nelson/Enzo Maccarinelli and Khan again (presumably)

    Look at what we get on the same dates:
    Saturday: Toney/Peter and Aiken/Guerrero
    Sept. 23: Arce/Hawk (supposedly a showcase for Arce)
    Oct. 14: Berto/TBA on BAD and a ridiculous Manfredo/Spina PPV

    Side by side, only this week does North America have the edge, with Showtime having a very nice card. On the other two dates we (NA) get two potentially garbage BAD's and a Manfredo PPV.

    Maybe I'm spoiled, because coming up we do have the great Golden Boy PPV (Sept.16), Corrales-Casamayor III (Oct. 7), Valuev/Barrett & Adamek/Briggs II (Oct. 7), Baldomir-PBF (Nov.4), Showtime on Nov.4, which could be JMM/Harrison or Liahovich/Briggs, Klitschko/Brock (Nov.11), and December, which brings us the Cotto and Margarito card, a possibly Winky PPV, Taylor and Hatton, etc.

    NEVERTHELESS, we should be able to get some coverage of these good cards in North America. I know Warriors Boxing wanted to get Abraham-Miranda on some sort of webcast, but I've heard nothing lately, even with the delay. Disappointing.

    If we can get the Sons of Legends PPV trash, with JCC Jr. vs. Jermaine White (?!?!?!?!!), how can we NOT get these fights?

    yea we do miss a lot of good fights.

    we also miss some prospects that fight in europe all the time. they get to see 'em but we never do.

    but the barrera and mayweather PPV's make up for it IMO

        Maybe we should have a Boxing channel here. They can have old fights and stuff during the week and then transmit these fights live from wherever in the world (or at least on prime time the following day).

        I wonder if http://wwitv.com/ has the channel they'll be transmited on.
