And of course, I'm planning on spending quite a bit of it inside watching boxing.But that's what happens with televised cards at two different times today. First up, Dereck Chisora hopes to make his weigh-in slap the start of something bigger when he takes on Vitali Klitschko in Germany. That bout is on Epix, and if you don't get that channel, you can sign up for a free trial and watch the fight online at EpixHd.com.Later tonight, Showtime brings us a pair of bouts from Texas.

Also in action is IBF light heavyweight titleholder Tavoris Cloud, defending his belt against Gabriel Campillo.If you'd rather spend the time outdoors, you can still follow the action with live round-by-round blog posts for all three fights right here on our main page. You can thank us later.The heavyweight battle starts around 4:30 pm Eastern...
