The New and Improved Boxing on TV thread!

Can't wait for FNF's :happy

Hopefully Friday night fights favourites, Antwone Smith, The Cherry bomb et al. will appear on there.

 

Taken from Premier Sports Facebook:

Our last Shobox of the year is from California as Jermain Taylor takes on Jessie Nicklow. Also features Dirrell v Cunningham on night of December 30th

 

ESPN has the schedule up, just search it on BoxRec and they have the cards from the 6th of January until around the 21st of February. Can't remember all of them but there's some very decent looking fights. I'm looking forward to Juan Carlos Burgos-Cristobal Cruz in particular, though I don't think that's for at least another 6-7 weeks.:-(

Cheers for that, fellas.

That's a very tasty line up. I'm looking forward to Provodnikov vs Diaz. Ruslan is another FNF's favourite. Always fun to watch.

 

Bild have confirmed that Povetkin defends his HW title against Marco Huck on February 25.Sauerland card so will be on BoxNation.

 

Povetkin wins with relative ease.

 

I think the term 'box his ears off' was made for fights like this one!

 

Cheers. Looks like it might clash with the Clev/Selby card though... :think

 

Welsh card will start at 6 or 7 I would imagine and then BoxNation will probably go straight to Germany for the main event.Also Maidana/Alexander are on that night so it could be a great night

 

Can't wait for FNF to return.

 

Ji-Hoon Kim :happy

Burgos Vs Cruz @126? Very good matchup nonetheless.

 

Michael Marrone vs Guillermo Jones on Eurosport on Tuesday
Ionut Dan Ion vs Selcuck Aydin is also on Eurosport on Tuesday
