    according to Mr Rafael, on Saturday afternoon CBS is planning on airing boxing, with 2012 olympians having pro debuts. Supposedly, a high profile main event is also being planned. Now this is a GBP show, what do you think a 'high profile' main event consists of? Obviously that evening is the Khan fight on Showtime. I would like to see Seth Mitchell get back in action ASAP. That would be very beneficial after his first loss.

    Too fast of a turnaround after a KO, but getting an exciting American heavyweight on network television would be great.

    Considering there will be football airing against the fights, I'm not sure they will do all that well ratings wise, but I hope I'm wrong.

    Would you call Banks a heavy hitter?

    Wilder will be on that card. Price is undefeated, so it is marketable. Dude is staying incredibly active. That will be his 6th fight in 2012.

    Russell just fought two weeks ago. Definitely won't be ready in time.
