ESPN PPV Offered In Two New England Cities!<br>
We are happy to report good news if you're a boxing fan living in Danbury or Hartford, CT. If you live in either of these two cities, you are capable of ordering ESPN's first PPV event featuring Antonio Margarito vs. Kermit Cintron, Shane Mosely vs. David Estrada and unbeaten heavyweight Calvin Brock against Jameel "Big Time" McCline. After moths of build-up and advertisement on ads broadcast on ESPN, viewers who seemed to be interested in this event, will only have the oportunity of ordering this great night of boxing if they live in two cities in New England. Since when has trying to find good boxing the equivalent of playing the lottery?
Is anyone else angry about this? I am. Is ESPN not based in Connecticut? Why is this great event only offered in New England two cites, when it's been advertised all over New England for the past few weeks? Comcast Didgital Cable operators were certainly suprised by this idea and it seems now that fans will be even more surprised when they are let down by this outrageous idea. When they don't make any money from this event, hopefully they'll open up to more interested fans.
