    As part of the sweetened pot of the Super Six World Boxing Classic, all promoters involved get their own featured episode of ShoBox: The New Generation. Mick Hennessy (whose horse in the race is, of course, Carl Froch) has his tomorrow night and is taking full advantage of the opportunity to showcase some of his prospects on American TV.

    Expect to see John O'Donnell (in the main event against Terrance Cauthen), Tyson Fury (against an unbeaten but unproven Midwestern KO artist with as bombastic a name as Fury's - Rich "Super" Power) and possibly Lee Purdy in the two hour broadcast. Some additional unbeaten green-beans and Daniel Cadman are all waiting in the wings in possible swing bouts, time allowing.

    As one of the unofficial czars of the RBR here on ESB, it will likely fall to me to call the action here in the General Forum (while the insular Brits will have their own thing going on in their sub-forum) - barring a a rare appearance by one of the select few who hold my esteem as my betters or equals in this (ie Arriba, Right Cross, ishy etc).

    With that being the case; we have a choice.

    I can do the live RBR at 4pm EST, and will put a spoiler tag in the title so people know not to look if they're waiting to watch on Showtime without foreknowledge of the results...

    ...OR...

    I can hold off and do the RBR at 11pm EST when ShoBox airs on same-day tape-delay (running the risk of some ******* posting results in the middle of the thread and ruining the experience for everyone)

    The former would free me up to do a live RBR of Solo Boxeo on Telefutura featuring Luis Grajeda and Chris "San Diego Kid" Martin at 11:30, while the latter would mean either no Solo Boxeo RBR or a delayed one.

    What'll it be, ESB? Your humble servant requests instructions.

    Sorry, the poll options are screwed up (but close enough).

    The choices again are 4pm EST or 11pm EST. :good

    neither fury or o donnell are the best prospects in britain in their own weight division.

    not a great advert for british boxing this one. :patsch

    Do it late. I'd like to see IB's descriptives of each round with time to prepare.

    Why don't you just do it live at 4pm, then when it starts on US TV you can copy all your posts over from the 4pm one for the American folk, just like it was live

    I'll be in the Brit one though, so I don't know why I'm giving you my opinion.

    :yep

    That's a good idea, but if I do it at 4 it would make more sense for me to use the free time later to do a RBR for the live boxing on Telefutura (which is going to run opposite ShoBox).

    There's some buzz surrounding Chris Martin after his upset win over Chris Avalos, so some folks might be just as interested in him as in the London stuff.

    I prefer live. Because I will be out of the house at that time and I can read your great rbr.. I will still watch when I get home. But I don't mind knowing results ahead of time.

    :yep

    The people have until lunchtime tomorrow to decide this by democratic process. (The poll closes at 7:19pm but that's only because there's a 24 hour minimum.)
