I'm really looking forward to a 3D fight. I think I'll end up with a house full of buddies.

ESPN To Televise First Live 3D Boxing Card

Feb. 16 Fight Card To Feature Undefeated Welterweights

by R. Thomas Umstead

Upstart network ESPN 3D will look to knockout viewers with a Feb. 18 live boxing telecast in 3D, network officials announced Friday.

The event, which features undefeated welterweights Fernando Guerrero (20-0, 16 KO's) and Shawn Porter (17-0, 13 KO's) in 10-round co-main events, will air on ESPN 3D and ESPN 2 and will mark the first US televised boxing match in 3D.
"We anticipate delivering an extraordinary visual experience with our 3D coverage of boxing", said Phil Orlins, Coordinating Producer, ESPN 3D in a statement. "3D is most impactful when you have the opportunity to shoot from close proximity to the action making boxing one of the most ideal sports to cover in 3D."

The main event was a good fight, but Guerero couldn't put him down.

This was fun!!!

3D for sure adds to the enjoyment of watching fights. I hope ESPN decides to make this a weekly broadcast.

Ignoring the fact that ESPN 3D looks horrible and causes me eyestrain when nothing else does, this was pretty cool (and I don't usually watch boxing too much).

I was hoping for the knockout as well though.

Last night might have been the best broadcast ESPN 3D has done yet. Looked very good to me on my Panasonic 50VT25.
