Marv Albert and the Return of Heavyweight Boxing to Primetime
Channel: Premier Boxing Champions
Date: 2015-09-26

The last heavyweight title fight to appear on NBC primetime was Larry Holmes vs Carl Williams on May 20, 1985. Legendary sportscaster Marv Albert was a commentator for that fight.

Now, more than 30 years later, championship heavyweight boxing returns to NBC as Deontay Wilder defends his title against France's Johann Duhaupas on September 26, 2015, and Mr. Albert will once again provide blow-by-blow commentary.

In this video, Albert recalls the excitement that heavyweight bouts brought to the sport of boxing in the past and how, with fighters like Deontay Wilder and the return of these matches to primetime, heavyweight boxing can once again receive the worldwide attention it did over 30 years ago.
