Looks like ESPN's Wednesday Night Fights may be done for

[OumaFan]

its on boxingscene, says sources from Disney, who own ESPN, are going to drop Wednesday Night Fights next year and focus only on Friday Night Fights.

Says the one good thing is they might have more of a budget for Friday Night Fights. Hopefully but it could be BS, will believe it when I see it, might just save the money or spend it on something else. Who knows?

[p4pking]

You would hope that they would get at least a signifigant increase for FNF, if not just the entire funding which would probably be a good move. How often do you really see two fights worth a damn on ESPN in the same week?

[OumaFan]

True, if they do markedly increase the quality of FNF then I could deal with it.

Wednesday Night Fights was fun sometimes but lets don't forget there was a bunch of nights where it was like, are they really televising this? Nationally?

[kingfrnk]

Im not surprised at all, i hope they still show FNF though

[OumaFan]

There's no talk of FNF being cancelled.

That sucks. What are they going to do, add more bowling and girl's softball? The best sport on the planet and f#cking ESPN would rather show cars running around a track in cirlces. I'm starting my own t.v. sports network

Don't even get me started on ESPN and it's half arse dedication to the sport over the last few years.Once they acquired NFL rights,I feared this.Its a catch twenty two.Love the Classic shows and loved last season but they seem to backseat Boxing ALOT for the most inane shite.....Pro Bowling and Badminton That was the kind of filler shows they used to air when they first debuted......Not ALL of these years later!!

That's horrible news for me, even if the fights weren't good, it gave me something to tide me over until the weekend. Plus every once in a while there would be an exciting prospect showcased that I'd never seen, or a fighter starting on the come back trail. Not to mention the WNF crew.

Ah well, it is what it is, if FNF is better then that will at least be a little consolation.

If this is true, I'll be bummed.

If the fights sucked, at least our crew had fun making fun the fighters, and picking on Legion with every Cialis and Flomax commercial.

He's working just fine thank you very much..............

[CutMeMick]

Why not take out FNF and leave in WNF?

On Fridays you've got.
Telefutura
Showtime
Telemundo

(Though Show and Telemundo were not every Friday)

ESPN would fill out the week much better on a Wednesday IMO.

But honestly if they speaking the truth then I gotta say I'm all for it.
More money means bigger fights...

Let's just hope it all goes well.
