    Jesus Soto-Karass vs Gabriel Rosado is a possibility according to Steve Kim. January 21

    What do you think about that?

    Not great. Even with lowered expectations.

    How is this better then shobox/fnf/fox sports cards?

    If it's an undercard its ok.

    If this is the main event fight of the card than thats a little of a letdown. I think the fight is probably a good action match up but with the budget they are working with you figured they'd line up a slightly higher profile bout. Now if this was the undercard match up of the night than this would be a solid match up. This would be a nice opener but a letdown as far as the main event goes.

    **** you guys. This **** is going to be crowd pleasing. When the hell is Soto-Karass ever in a bad fight? Not to mention that it's on a prime time network.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see NBC dip back into some of those Season 1 'Contender' guys, too. At least on the undercards.

    Dan Rafael said they were working with a better budget than ShoBox, but this fight is basically ESPN level. Better than nothing, I guess.

    What's a prime time network? Versus is just changing its name. It's not on regular NBC
