Coleman-Arnaoutis USBA Title Bout To Be Shown On Versus!

We recently talked about Baltimore junior welterweight Tim "Pit Bull" Coleman's bout against "Mighty" Mike Arnaoutis for the USBA Junior Welterweight title on Thursday, December 3 at the Manhattan Center in New York City.

Now comes word that the bout will be televised live on the VERSUS Network. "We are pleased that VERSUS has chosen to televise this tremendous card featuring two championship match-ups and a battle between two of boxing most promising up and coming prospects," stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO and found of Star Boxing, who is co-promoting the card with Larry Flynt's Hustler Club-NYC. The other championship bout on the card is a matchup for the interim WBA Female Super Bantamweight championship between "The Real Million Dollar Baby" Maureen Shea and Jenna "Cowgirl" Shivers.

Good luck Tim.

Tough it out, Tim, you can do it for sure!

Regarding the co-main event, does anybody else have mixed feelings about Larry Flynt and the Hustler Club promoting women's boxing?

On the one hand, it flies in the face of those trying to establish it as a serious sport, not a sexualized spectator happening. But on the other hand, women's boxing is not really in a position to turn down major support wherever they can find it.

It's kind of like Virginia Slims and women's tennis for all those years. Smoking wasn't good for women (or anybody,) but it sure was good to women's tennis.
