Maybe these are the fighters they can afford with their budget and try to push but just are not up to scratch. Either way the company seems to be going downhill in regards to boxing. Boxnation is going that way over here.Quote:

What we saw in Ward was an ALL TIME GREAT FIGHTER... Not a great champion in his era, BUT AN ALL TIME GREAT FIGHTER AND CHAMPION!
Kov should just retire, or fight Stevenson for a whole lot of money, get bombed out and then retire.
Got to think that the landscape has changed in regards to how stations are so specialized these days: MLB channel, NFL channel, I guess there's an NBA channel, NHL channel, etc....well you have to figure martial arts/combat sports will get their own channels eventually and Fight Channel has emerged from Croatia and Fite.tv is new on the scene too which does streaming fights and PPV events....got to figure that's the wave of the future even if those two ventures peter out the way shit works right now is that stations are specialized for this that or the other and the fans flock to it.....being the big bidnessman he is perhaps @Saddo himself could crowdfund his own lil station, would have to bring back Wacko for the drunken round by rounds, but that would be hilarious.
