    I've watched every episode this season and it's been rare a moment that I get even remotely excited. Boring, boring, mismatch, boring, boring, mismatch... rinse and repeat. I hope they get their act together soon. I mean, seriously, U.S. televised boxing needs some good action bouts soon, because I'm seriously getting disinterested. Anybody else feelin' the same way?

    I feel you man they should use it as a heavyweight display for future prospects like Wilder (who has been on in the past) and maybe even Boystov and Fury (if they come to America early in they careers) but this is just a pipedream of mine.

    Last night was the worst FNF I can remember. Total waste of time and money by ESPN. Amateur hour programming job

    In fairness to ESPN two of their main events had the original opponents back out. Torres was a sub for Herrera and Hernandez was a sub for Ennis.

    Chilemba-Miranda, Barthelemy-Williams Jr, Abdulsalamov-Rodriguez was a good tripleheader but thats it.

    It's been alright, which is pretty much par for the course with FNF.

    Every year their product is about "alright" overall. Not great, not terrible.

    For every Wolak vs. Rodriguez I or Escalante vs. Roman, there's an Arreola vs. Quezada or Prescott vs. Cuello.

    They have 2 or 3 good bouts a year and it has been that way for at least 4 years. They need to fire their match makers.

    Categorically untrue.

    Of all the possible replacements for BK, he is hands down the best (and the most avid boxing fan).
     
  13. This may be true, but it doesn't mean I like listening to him talk.

    Manage your expectations. It's FNF's. Take it for what it is. I've enjoyed it so far. Last nights was pretty poor but only because Ennis pulled out and a third choice club fighter who wasn't fit to fight was brought in at the last minute. The co-feature was a decent scrap.
