On Don King's website, along with Devon Alexander-Miguel Callist. Dan Rafael: Promoter Don King heads to St. Louis next week to make official on Thursday a March 27 card at the Scottrade Center, where St. Louis' Cory Spinks will defend his junior middleweight title against mandatory challenger Verno Phillips. Junior welterweight prospect Devon Alexander, also of St. Louis, faces Miguel Callist in the co-feature. Alexander and Callist were to meet in January on the Roy Jones-Felix Trinidad card, but Callist fell out with an injury and Alexander defeated DeMarcus Corley. King doesn't have a television outlet for the card and might not get one, but he plans to make it available on his www.donkingnetwork.tv Web site. The site offers some freebies from King's expansive library -- for example, one of the fights available features a young Felix Trinidad in a welterweight title defense against Yory Boy Campas -- as well as some classics for $9.99.

Trying to decide if this is worth the trouble of connecting my laptop to the big tv? :dunno: Probably not.
Mine is down as well, I guess this is to be expected the first time aorund and there are still a lot of bugs to be worked out
It's the same thing if you try to watch movies off of netflix, you have to go to Internet Explorer. Mine isn't working too good on my laptop. Keeps saying stalled every 5 seconds.
Back online somewhat....I saw Marcus Johnson spar Chris Henry last Thursday at Savannah's he is awesome
I know that guy isn't worth a damn, having ten losses in 24 fights......but at least he tried to throw punches and win, and Johnson looks like a beast. Good technical skills,...hard punching, good handspeed and he is put together like he's made of rock. If his chin is top rate,...sky's the limit for him. Hearing him interviewed leads me to believe that mentally, he isn't very intellectual.::
Look out for this kid like I said before. He is a helluva prospect and a very nice and polite young man as well. He and Henry hooked up for some brutal stuff, and Johnson is for real, believe me folks. Explosivo got it right, when he takes off his shirt in the gym, you hear the "damn..." from the fighters and trainers, and all eyes are on him and Henry sparring and all other gym work stops for the time being. He is the total package, built like a brick shithouse.
:laughing: @ Kevin Cunningham. "What you Mike Tyson or some shit now? Fuck, I been waiting for a combination all night."
