Vitali - Solis Broadcast on Cable Channel EPIX For US Fans!

What?! Lennox is a good commentator

 

Channel 209 out here with COX cable in California. A two hour block is set for 2 p.m. PST. There must be an undercard fight to be aired. I heard tonight that Teddy "I hate the Klitschko's" Atlas will be doing commentary with Brian Kenny. Like another poster already stated, I am also digging in for huge sized portion of bitter dumbass commentary.

If Vitaly loses it will be a very bitter pill listening to Atlas gloat and go on and on about how he knew all along how terrible Vitaly was... YUCK!!!

 

And you are a moron:good

 

Bitter toward who, Vitali?

If anything, I'd think it would best serve Lennox's interests to talk Vitali up to indirectly enhance his own legacy. :think

 

:huh The hell? I don't remember writing this here.

Edit- Oh, this thread was merged. Alright, nevermind.

 

:yep :drink

 

The co-feature is most likely the only other 12-rounder on the card: Ola Afolabi vs. Lubos Suda for a minor CW title. (the rest of the card is 8- and 4-rounders)

 

NEW YORK (March 20, 2011) -- If you show it they will login. That was the premise for broadcasting Saturday’s Vitali Klitschko vs. Odlanier Solis WBC heavyweight championship fight live from Colgne, Germany. And while the live broadcast on EPIX and the simulcast on a Times Square jumbotron went off without a hitch, the live streaming on EpixHD.com experienced some problems.
The replay of the EPIX broadcast, featuring the commentary of three-time heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis, plus Sam Rosen and Tony Paige, is now available on EpixHD.com at http://www.epixhd.com/klitschko-vs-solis/ (main event) and
http://www.epixhd.com/klitschko-vs-solis-undercard/ (select undercard bouts).

“Due to the incredible volume of viewers logging in at the same time, just as the broadcast was about to begin at 5 p.m. ET, the system that we used to register them for the free two-week trial began to fail which caused many fans to miss the undercard fights. We made the decision to put the main event, Klitschko vs. Solis, in the clear online, eliminating the need for registration to the site,” said Mark Greenberg, President & CEO of EPIX, the multichannel premium entertainment system. “We apologize to the boxing fans who had to endure this.

"Over 100,000 people tried to login to the live stream of the fights, with most of that volume coming at the same time. The fan attention behaved more like a pay-per-view event than a TV show. By putting Klitschko vs. Solis in the clear online, we were able to serve the vast majority of those streams," Greenberg continued. "Though the problems with registration are unacceptable, the good news is it proved that the internet is a viable vehicle for broadcasting a good fight live."

 

Also Cablevision.
