This Friday and Saturday we get to watch boxing on two different channels and we don't have to pay for it. We are all know and watch ESPN2's FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS, but on Saturday Fox Sports is playing there boxing card. Both channels are offering great match ups for everyone to watch. FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS started off with a bang last week with a very competitive, hugely entertaining fight between Roman Karmazin and Dionisio Miranda. The fight was a great action fight that got boxing off to a great start this year. Fox hopes to do the same with there show by profiling Vanes Martirosyan and Kassim Ouma. Vanes is a fast rising Jr. middleweight with a 26-0 record, but he has a stiff test in Kassim Ouma. Kassim is never in a dull fight and will throw as many punches as his body will allow. Kassim hasn't fought in over 8 months and has lost 4 of his last 5 fights. Martirosyan has an impressive record but he hasn't fought anyone. If Kassim isn't shot and can take off his ring rust he can be a stiff challenge and may even win. All the pressure is on the young undefeated Martirosyan who needs to win to prove his worth. The fight on ESPN2 between Juan Carlos Burgos and Juan Carlos Martinez should be fun too, depending on which Juan you choose.
