    Jason Abelson on Fight Network - What kind of background and credibility does he have?

    The first time I saw him was the other week when he was brown nosing BHop before the Calzaghe fight.

    Just watched him previewing Arslan V Ding. I haven't seen Arslan fight but Abelson was coming out with the same crap that he was spouting about Calzaghe the other week - European, average, poor resume etc.

    Is Abelson well respected in the states?

    Abelson is awful. :barf

    He's not personable and doesn't interview people tactfully. He dislikes European fighters including Brits like Calzaghe for some reason. :huh

    If TFNs management was wiser, they would replace him.

    You've probably seen more of him than me, but sounds like we agree.

    He does that all the time.

    He clearly has an agenda against European fighters - I don't know why though.

    The Fight Network is now going to be broadcast in Britain. With Jason Abelson's annoying personality and his dislike of British/European fighters, he's not going to do the popularity of the station any good. I suggest all the British boxing fans who are annoyed by him should send an e-mail and let them know.

    Here's their website:
