    I know this has been rumored, but I've yet to see it announced officially...

    Anyway, Showtime turned down this card and instead will be airing Tarver-Kayode/Quilin-Wright on the same night. :huh

    Showtime and HBO usually only show fighters where at least one opponent is either US citizen or at least based (living) in the US for reasonably long time.

    I read Froch was planning on moving to the US, Bute is Canadian (ex Romanian) so I am not surprised the dumbass US networks aren't interested.
