I'm betting FNF doesn't get anything close to the 51,000 that showed up for the fight last week:D

Sechew Powell(25-2) vs Deandre Latimore(20-2)
This a rematch of a 2008 fight that Powell was winning(imo) until Latimore stunned and stopped him in the 7th round. First fight was good hopefully this one will be too.
Here are the rest of the fights, I don't know which ones will be aired:

FSN has a solid main event(imo) on Top Rank Live tomorrow night.
Heavyweights Odlanier Solis(15-0) vs Carl Drummond(26-2)
I've been waiting for a chance to see Solis.

In Germany they probably will get a crowd close to 50,000 tomorrow when Eddie Chambers(35-1) challenges Wladimir Klitschko(53-3) for the heavyweight championship.
I'm hoping for Chambers to pull out a major upset....
No American network is carrying the fight, it will be a $15 ppv on the Klitschko's website.
In the unlikely event that Chambers wins I'm sure HBO or espn will be airing it within a week though.

Yet another American unable to wrest the heavyweight championship from Klitschko.
Chambers was dominated for the whole fight then splattered by a vicious left-hook in the 12th.
Attendance was 50,000+
HBO made the right choice in not televising that one(I watched it on a stream)
Klitschko is going to rule until father time stops him, there are no challengers out there that can dethrone him.

Sechew Powell boxed a great match last night to avenge his 2008 loss to Latimore.
Latimore could not solve Powell's jab, he pressed the whole fight but the more he pushed the action the more jabs he ate.

Drummond didn't want to fight so Solis didn't get any challenge at all. Carl quit after three rounds.
The commentators said the promoter is his purse.
