Mayweather should leave HBO

[-EX-]

ESPN has Wednesday Night Fights, and their Friday Night Fights and The Contender. I don't know if they'd want more boxing. Also where would they fit it in. They have college football, basketball, baseball, golf, football, and others.

I think stuff will remain the same unless there becomes a boxing channel.

ESPN is the Mecca of sports channels. If they could have a gaurantee, which could be possible if boxing had a Union, League, Commisioner, etc. ESPN would jump at the chance to have top rate talent. The only reason they put the fighters they have on is because they don't have the top rated talent at the moment.

ESPN had college football, then they went after the NFL, why? because that is where the big boys play.

I've been suggesting the possibility of fighters going to ESPN:

There you can get bigger exposure. If you need to get a big purse for a fight, so make it PPV just like HBO does...not every PPV fight has to be $50, you can have some that are 30, 20, or even $10...then again, just have ESPN make an exclusive boxing channel, which they probably would do if every fighter signed with them. The constant replays alone would be worth it because ESPN viewership {not sure it that is a word} is much bigger than HBO.

ESPN is also better with bringing in and showing commercials because it runs it station like a "regular" channel, like you see on "regular/national" television. Commericals can be on split-screen while the fighter is in between rounds, stamped on the refs face, on the ring card girls ******* and ass, etc.

As far fetched as it sounds, its a good idea. This past season of ESPN Wednesday and Friday Night Fights was one of the best. There were several good bouts, and with the incorporation of The Contender folks fighting too, it was great
