    Believe it or not, Tarver vs. Kauffman is actually the only fight listed that is confirmed to be televised (headlining a PBC on FS1 card).

    Cristian Mijares vs. Wilfredo Vázquez Jr. is almost certain to be televised (at least in Mexico - as I would presume is the case for Segura vs. Pérez as well) but nothing officially announced yet as far as coverage.

    Satorn (aka Porpramook) vs. Deebook (aka Sithdabnij) I did air on domestic TV in Thailand in March, albeit not on Channel 7 where most of their boxing cards are shown, but on some different channel named "Workpoint", not typically known for carrying boxing, so the rematch may or may not get picked up as well.

    Shumenov is fighting @ home in Astana, Kazakhstan. Maybe some international coverage (ie BoxNation perhaps) but don't count on it.

    Corley vs. Harris I didn't receive any coverage; the best we can hope for in the rematch is maybe a Facebook stream from the promoter.

    Mark DeLuca is coming off a high-profile ESPN headlining fight, but I'm not sure his fight against Wright - especially absent much compelling undercard support - is going to attract national television network attention.

    The comeback fights of Ajamu, Wright, and Brown/Hallbeck will almost certainly not be seen anywhere outside the venue in Nova Scotia.

    Cristian Mijares vs. Wilfredo Vázquez Jr?!?! How long has that one been official?

    Talk about a tale of two greatly faded entities remaining in the public's eye through pretty exploitative match making. Vasquez isn't really even deserving of this bout, to be fair.

    I'm also really surprised I'm the only one who voted Segura with my singular vote where as five times as many people tab Tarver...

    Segura vs. Pérez was canceled, apparently (thankfully).
