Check out Friday Night Fights on ESPN. Not a lot of recognizable names, but some very good fights with guys trying to move up the ladder and some guys trying to keep their careers alive.

ESPN Friday Night Fights Schedule 2010

HBO also has some good fights and some good coverage leading up to the big fights, but it's a subscriber service. Pavlik v. Martinez coming up in April should be a great fight. Also, Cotto v. Foreman in June should be a good one on HBO.

Showtime has some decent fights too, but I don't subscribe so I'm not sure what's on their schedule.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
