Hey,

Can't be over a minute.

Id love to see them pick a handful of young, up and comming fighters and follow them from their pro debuts, or close to it, and continue to follow them and promote them. I think that is the problem with boxing, the casual fan doenst get much exposure to the fighters. The UFC has TUF which gets casual fans to see/hear more about fighters and it draws their attention, boxing doesnt have this.

Imagine if they followed Kelly Pavlik from his early days until now, and the public had been seeing him off and on for a few years. He could be boxings Chuck Liddell, which is what I think boxing needs.

Hey, that'd be great, and if that happens then CBS can return to the old moniker they had back in the early/mid 80's when they were known as the "Caucasian Broadcasting System" in the boxing world.

Just a couple years ago they had the Sunday morning fights for a couple week series. Cintron and Bojado were featured. Really enjoyed watching the prospects getting some air time.

Good news. No doubt.

Speaking of Bojado...is he done?
