Michael Buffer in the Building -- National Anthems have been sung!
Newly-elected hall of famer Michael Buffer is in the building and conducted a 10-count for Joe Robert, the creater of Fight Night, former DC Boxing chair and WBA Vice President York Van Nixon and heavyweights Joe Frazier and Ron Lyle.
Danny Walton, a Las Vegas performer, sang "God Save the Queen" while Ada Satterfield, daughter of Ring Magazine and former Baltimore Sun writer, Lem Satterfield sang the "Star Spangled Banner! Great renditions. Ada has sung the US anthem at a number of boxing cards in the Baltimore area.
Kavanaugh-Gil is underway. Will give the results shortly. Nice crowd on hand but I feel for the fans who are in the cheap seats and have to watch the bout on a big screen because there is a huge riser in front of them!

Are they going to have time to get all the undercard fights in before the broadcast, or are some of them swings?
I think so. HBO is showing the replay of Cotto-Margarito II before they go live. Kavanagh-Gil is in the fifth round and there are only A. Peterson-Attah and Thomas Williams's bout before the telecast.
Seth Mitchell is not supposed to hit the ring until after 10:45.
how many people on hand
