this card looks to be gettin better and better so far we have munroe/nishioka, linares/chavez, alfaro/kamegai and maybe just maybe roman gonzalez/juan carlos raveco for the wba jfw title. so i was checking the sky sports shedule and they dont hav this card up :twisted: WTF ? i get its in japan and wont be until like 8am but sky hav been promoting the **** out of munroe you'd think in the biggest most important fight of his career they'd hav him covered. so if sky aint showing it will anybody show it over here ?
I think Maloney said that they are trying to get it shown live. At the very least it will be shown on a tape delay.
They did mention it on Saturdays Ricky Burns fight. I heard it will either be shown live or at wost delayed coverage.
I have a site that shows Gonzalezs fights live and legally but I aint sure if its just the ones in Nicaragua or his asian fights too. Ill get onto his manager and report back. This is a little article I found after his fight friday. Had to translate with google but you can get the jist of it anyway. The world champion at 105 pounds of AMB , Roman "Chocolate" Gonzalez has decided to order up to 108 pounds , but does not renounce his crown , and without giving the matter further ado , his next fight will be with the flyweight title AMB in the middle, against Argentine Juan Carlos Reveco in a fight scheduled for October 25 in Tokyo , Japan. The title fight was announced yesterday in the same evening in which Nerys Espinoza could not beat the IBF flyweight king , Luis Lazarte, who won by unanimous decision in Argentina, retiendo first crown in a fight but decided to tawdry Nicaraguan did little for their cause. " The only thing missing was that Reveco to confirm acceptance and that it was possible a few days ago , now remains to define some details. It will be a tough fight because Reveco was twice champion at that weight and will certainly not be easy for Roman but of course we are confident in their ability , "explained Silvio Conrado Jr. , attorney for Roman. Make this decision became inevitable, as the monarch said , for fear not to 105 pounds plus . "I was having more weight so we were studying the movement a few months ago but it was better if we did it with a fight like this, " said "Chocolate" officially known after its decision to go to 108 pounds. Reveco gained the title of the WBA 108 in 2007 to win by knockout Nethra Sasiprapa June 22 , however , lost the crown that year in his second defense against Brahim Asloum , who won a unanimous decision in France. Acting regained the title in 2009 against Ronald Barrera whom he defeated by knockout in the third assault and carrying a defense of that crown, defeating a Mexican Armando Torres on 17 July this year. " I am thrilled that I will seek a new category , I'll prepare as usual only now with a new motivation , search for the title of the 108 pounds and hopefully then have the chance to face the unified champion Giovanni Segura , who comes to conquer Ivan Calderon knockout , "said the champion, who is leaving the 105 pounds after having defended the crown three times snatched Japanese Yutaka Niida in 2008. Nerys sin chance Meanwhile, Nerys Espinoza threw away his third chance looking for a world title as the king of the FIB , Luis Lazarte resolved it without so many setbacks as it was assumed that I could make someone ten years younger than him and also with great desire to remove the sash. Espinoza started well after the fight but was gradually falling in boxing dirty, messy Lazarte. The unique in a few moments could make the distance because the Argentine tied constantly raised above his head came forward and Nerys never knew how to solve the tricks of their rival. The best rounds of the sixth Espinoza and especially the seventh, though not sufficient , to cap the referee took away a point in the final assault after sending connect to stop the actions.
nice 1 tommy im dying to see this card especially the chocolatito fight if it comes off a foty contender no doubt
Gonzales movin up a fighting for a title....Brill undercard fight. Frank better get something sorted for this. It'd be horrendous if we didn't get to see this. I think Japan is around 8 or 9 hours ahead of us so we'd be looking at a early afternoon fight time. Should definitely be a feasible card to put on Sky
His managers cousin said he thinks it will be on the site and he will let me know for sure soon. I wont post it till hes 100% sure. Once again mods this a legal stream im talking about which the fight promoter shows
I would imagine that would be solely the Gonzalez fight and not the whole card? It'd be amazing if there was a legal stream for the whole card. I could handle it not being on TV if this was the case.
It actually looks like it could be: http://wowfes.wowow.co.jp/event/excite_sp/index.html#card Now I can't read Japanese, but I can see the times of '14:00' and '15:00', so if Antcull is right that Japan is 8/9 hours ahead, then we could be seeing it at 10/11pm possibly over here? :think
