Thread: froch fight doesnt start until 2am uk time

Just been informed by a friend of mine that the froch-dirrell fight doesnt get going till 2am sunday morning in nottingham as its been broadcast live in the US.

Showtime begins at 1am british time and will show the repeat of abraham-taylor before heading over to nottingham live and exclusive for the froch-dirrell fight

genuinely thought we were going to get both fights in the next 2hours but now appears its gonna be a long old night!!!!!!!

currently watching undercard fight for abraham-taylor which is in round 8 and have been told AA-Taylor fight gets going at around 10pm BST 45 minutes time.

For what its worth the undercard fight is total crap and your not missing much just yet!!

just tried to book this but you need a phone connected to you sky box... never had to do that before for a PPV so fuck that bollocks.

i phoned them up signed up gave them my card details then bam... it was them who said i had to have my phone connected.... so canceled.

Shame primetime aint got thier act together yet but hey hum guess i'll keep my money but make no mistake i wont be missing these fights tonight

signed up to a stream - assumed it was on around 10.30, can't believe it


am ill and feel shit as it is - no way can I stay up till 2am. And as its a stream I won't see it on a repeat. Just for once can't the USA watch it a bit earlier



Poo, bum....and indeed titty

Yeah,i Dont Mind Watching Decent Fights From Las Vegas And America At 4am Especially If Theirs Top Draw Fights But Why The Fook Do We Shitty Arse Daft Cant Brits Have To Arse Lick American Promoters!!sick As Fook!i Remember The Haye Vs Enzo For The Cruiserweight Title Over Here At The O2 At London(i Think)and That Was On At About 1am And Both Fighters Are From Over Here!!!!wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!

OOOHH MAN!!!!!!!!!!! I FEEL LIKE BREAKING SOMETHING!!!!!!

Sorry to hear it.Delays suk the biggest.Not sure of the ratio but we get em in the States as well with the networks,especially Showtime.Nothing worse than knowing the result of a big fight prior to watching it...not the same.Trying to avoid it is damn near impossible,need spoiler alerts and sack time for a few hours prior.Its fooked all around really.

Its gonna be a long nite.

Compared to a vegas showdown this is an early night...

Anyone wishing to match me pint for pint let me know!

2am is nothing compared to the Vegas bills which start at 5am. This is an early night for us Brits.
