Good News - Bob Arum lands new TV deal with Azteca America

[Diane]

Well with the fall of WNF and Solo Boxeo, this is good news.

They are going to do anywhere from 36 to 52 shows in 2009.

They already have 5 shows lined up, and it begins January 17th.

Here's the link with all the information, including who is fighting in those 5 fights.

The only thing that sucks, I don't get this channel. Live streams for me.

sounds good, Arum kind of screwed it with Versus, hopefully he makes more of an effort here.

Meza-Clay-Solis isn't a bad start.

How did Arum screw up? Was this because of his fighters getting gift decisions?

[OumaFan]

I just didn't think the cards were that great, lot of Tye Fields, lot of Arum fighters that I personally didn't want to see all the time. Seems like Versus has gotten better since.

Im thinkin this show is Box Azteca right? ive seen it a couple times

[CutMeMick]

Wow!

Arum I gotta say man, this sounds great to me.
It's def. a great way to put boxing out there...

I'm all for it. I hope the networks are willing to work it out with Arum.
It would be monumental if it get's done.

This is REALLY great...

On this same note, I think Canchilla beat Segura again.

I think Segura fought like an amateur in the 1st fight, I expected more maturity from him but he went on to fight like power is all that mattered.
Canchilla was able to bounce back and outbox him the whole way through.
