    Ill take note and grab it when i see it.

    Dorsey was in some good battles, i just checked and i grabbed his fight with medina not paez.

    Also Paez vs calvin grove (i think it was grove) is another good one, only seen highlights though.

    There aren't too many better fights than Dorsey v Kelley. Broke compu-box records etc.

    JANUARY

    12/1/09 – Sonny Liston v Cassius Clay & Joe Frazier v George Foreman> Got them both

    19/12/09 – Fernando Vargas v Ike Quartey> Got it

    26/12/09 – Ivan Robinson v Antonio Diaz & Carmen Basilio v Johnny Saxton> No/Yes (I think so anyway, I've got two Basilio welterweight bouts on a DVD I bought from England, I'm pretty sure it's Saxton).

    FEBUARY

    2/2/09 – Hagler v Roldan & Mancini v Torres> Yes/No

    9/2/09 – Barreto v Garza & Barkley v Van Horn> No/No :D

    16/2/09 – Morrison v Williams & Tate v Maynard> No/No :D

    23/2/09 - Holmes v Shavers & Holmes v Frazier> Got Both

    MARCH

    2/3/09 – Leonard v Benitez & Hearns v Cuevas> Got Both

    9/3/09 – Gatti v Ruelas & Robinson v Turpin> No/Depends on which fight it is

    16/3/09 – Monzon v Valdez> First or second one?

    23/3/09 – Paez vs Dorsey & Freddie Steele vs Carlos Monzon> No/No :D

    30/3/09 – Marvellous Marvin Hagler> Got nearly all of Haglers title reign plus a few of his earlier bouts.

    I have to say that I'm very impressed with that line up, especially considering they're showing some good older fights that if you haven't seen are definately worth checking out.

    As well as a mass emailing of ESPN, send one to Setanta as well. I emailed them when i saw they'd signed a deal to show 1 or 2 fights a month from Germany to see if we would get that shown here and the reply said not at this stage but they were looking into it. So if everyone emails them it might happen.

    I'm actually excited looking at that. AFF, I take it that's ESPN? Some brilliant fights on there. Barkley v Van Horn is savage. Darren's probably still thanking his dad for winding The Blade up by shouting "We're going to bomb Iran!" :D

    Any link to that info mate. I can't find it. Not doubting you or anything, just interested in having a read. Definitely worth an email.

    Thats the important sentence right there. Broadcasting rights here are different as to what can be shown and when here.

    Yeah i know, Setanta gave me a glimmer of hope when they said they were looking into it so maybe if there's a decent amount of interest shown it might sway them into broadcasting these fights. But unfortunately it probably won't happen.

    Any idea why ESPN cut out some of last nights boxing coverage? In the Solis fight they didn't show a few of the rounds. Their boxing coverage is getting embarrassing!
