    Just noticed that on One HD tonight there is a boxing program called Johnny Lewis Boxing Classics. Looks like its a weekly show too.

    Anyone watched this before ?

    They have shown real crap fights and i dont think it will improve however Johnny will be putting his name to some locally promoted fights that should be good on the local scene. they wont live up to the classic scene but will be good nights

    you have to give it to them though, finding some of the greats in their most obscure and **** fights can be no easy task.

    yea the show has been brought up many times on here..
    Like everybody has said and I have mentioned in previous threads, they are far from classics..
    They show fights from a future star's early career.
    Hardly entertaining stuff.

    I'd be happy to watch some more obscure stuff to be honest. I'll have to check this out. War Hearns at Cruiserweight!!!!!!!!

    Good to see Hearns calling out Tarver a few weeks back but even better to see Antonio ignore him . :deal

    Sounded ok on the dog and bone a few weeks ago when I was speaking to him. Antonio would **** his pants looking at the Motor City Cobra on the other side of the ring... WAR HEARNS!
