So what time does this fight actually start then?Does anyone really know??

[ross]

I dont know but when theres a big fight in Las Vegas its always 4am for the main event but New York is on the other side of America but itll probably still be 4am as the Americans would want it prime time tv.

we are 3 hours ahead of Las Vegas..

fight prob starts at about 8-9, after all the undercards we usually see the main event from 11-12:30 EST

Yeah i hate when that happens!We brits always have to wait in the early hours on the morning,even when we have the likes of Haye fight over here we still bend over backwards by delaying the time for other people sake!Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats another thing, can the Americans answer honest and regardless of whether or not they like him.

Is Joe Calzaghe a draw on American tv?

I know Roy wasnt, in fact I think the first fight I saw of his televised over hear was against Bryant Brannon and that was on the low key Euro sport, the big channels like ITV, BBC, Sky sports didnt want to know until much later.

I remember watching his fight with Mike McCallum, not sure if it was live or not though.

Can these Two, together now bring a big audience in?

I need to know this too, I've a hot date Sat night so need to work that round the fight!!

It's usually 4 am for us when in Vegas but this time it's in NY so should be earlier. I had figured around 1am...

What's the diffence between Eastern and Pacific time? Anyone?...

cmoooooooon joey 1 last great performance anyone else buzzing about this ?

[yvonne]

It must be shown at about 2am over here then in the U.K.We brits always get the shitty end of the stick!I bet the Haye fight with Barrett starts at about 1am too,and if soo i will be fucking pissed off.When Haye fought Big Enzo Mac their moved the time in the early hours of the morning for the rest of the world to enjoy.What i say to that is,"If their want to watch two great fighters fight it out then their should be willing to stay up for it as we dumb arse brits do."

It's frustrating I know. Although I reckon Haye will be on our time...

Just checked the HBO PPV site and the show doesn't start until 9pm ET, damn that is 2am UK time.

Can any US members advise as to how soon after the start of the show on HBO we can expect the fight to start? I'm guessing at least an hour build up to the fight whch makes it 3am for us....

[Tysonbruno]

The fight will be on about 4am the show starts on Setanta at 3am i remember Jones vs Trinidad fight started about 4am and that was also at the garden i would say 4.30am MAX.

Shit man this is disappointing.

I though the fight would be on earlier with it being in NY. The plan was to lure my hot date back to mine with the promise of the Calzaghe fight starting around 1am.

No chance in hell I could keep her 'occupied' back at mine til 4 am. 1am was hard enough as it was...

[kingfrnk]

the latest it will start over here is probably 11pm the earliest will be 10pm. yay for me
