No Mas TV Guide - 3/20

1972 Olympic Basketball SportsCentury
ESPN Classic, 4 p.m.
A half-hour profile of the infamous gold-medal game at the Munich Olympics between the USSR and the USA in which the Soviets were given three chances at a game-winning buzzer-beating shot, the third of which went in and won them the gold medal. It remains one of the most controversial moments in Olympic history.

John Duddy v. Alfredo Cuevas, 2006
VS., 7 & 11 p.m.

If you're not on the John Duddy train yet, you might as well hop on now, because this kid is going to be big, even if he doesn't become a big-time champion. He could easily be the Arturo Gatti of his generation, and just won himself the IBA middleweight crown this past Saturday at the Garden, a meaningless belt yes, but still one wonders how much longer it will be before he makes a marquee fight. This fight against Cuevas is from the Malignaggi/Cotto card last June.

Evander Holyfield v. Carlos De Leon, 1988
ESPN Classic, 8 p.m.

Just as with Pernell, I get the feeling that Classic made some deal for a bunch of Holyfield fights in the last six months, because man they've been rolling out some nuggets that they never used to show. This dates back to Evander's cruiserweight days, and the night he unified the 190 belts by stopping Carlos De Leon (who, I must point out, had the audacity to nickname himself "Sugar").

UFC Unleashed
Spike, 9 p.m.

Featured fights include: Forrest Griffin vs. Elvis Sinosic, David Terrell vs. Evan Tanner, Jeff Monson vs. Brandon Lee Hinkle and Tim Sylvia vs. Cabbage Correira.

ECW
Sci-Fi, 10 p.m.
Still fuming after having his masterlock broken for the first time, Chris Masters comes to ECW to challenge Bobby Lashley.
