ESPN3 has been picking up some more fights over the past few months, which is great for fight fans. Combined with the continuing efforts of channels such as AWE, formerly Wealth TV, the new Golden Boy Live series on Fox Sports, and more, there’s a whole lot more boxing currently available on TV for fans in the states!
Huck vs. Arslan II isn’t necessarily highly anticipated for fans here, but the first fight was competitive and Huck often makes for entertaining scraps.
