Post by philly »

LAS VEGAS (July 17, 2012)—On Saturday night, former three-time world champion Anthony Mundine scored a seventh round stoppage over former world champion Bronco McKart to make an emphatic statement in his American debut.

The IBF North American Middleweight championship bout also marked the inaugural WEALTH TV Pay Per View card.

Mundine dropped McKart three times in the pivotal seventh round and with the win; Mundine becomes a major player in the packed Jr. Middleweight and Middleweight divisions.

Mundine (44-4, 26 KO’s) will now look for the biggest fights with the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Miguel Cotto or Saul Alvarez.

The Broadcast, produced by WEALTH TV was seen all over the world and it continues a strong run of boxing events for the network.

“It was our first Pay Per View and everything came off perfectly”, said Charles Herring, the President of WEALTH TV

“Tonight was a great show with three terrific fights and we have many things in the works to provide the best fights throughout the world on both WEALTH TV & WEALTH TV PPV”

The card also featured undefeated Heavyweight Acha Mohammad Ali remaining perfect with a six round slugfest over Andre Carthron.

In the twelve round co-feature, Cornelius White won the IBF International Light Heavyweight crown with a twelve round unanimous decision over former world title challenger Dmitry Sukhotsky in what turned out to be a back and forth bloody brawl.

With the win, White (20-1, 16 KO’s) now jumps to the head of the line to fight for the IBF Light Heavyweight championship.

Did anyone watch this fight?
I sat down and watched a tape of the Wealth TV telecast on Monday night. :o
It was horrible, the commentators were all over the place and inaccurate in everything they said, and the lack of atmosphere was deplorable. Like Dan Rafael said, this fight meant nothing in the states!

I thoughts the fights were enjoyable..I have seen worse.
The telecast reminded me of the old days of wrestling when they used to wrestle in a TV studio !!
And the main commentator was just too over the top. When i could understand what Larry was saying i enjoyed his input. All in all it was different, and the fights were ok. They just need to replace the head commentator
