    They start the Nottingham show at 8 until 10 then show AA v Taylor, then go back to Froch after 2am. In between they will show Froch's last two fights v Pascal and Tyalor.

    What the fuck?

    Who's bright idea was that?

    Why would Brits want to watch a German and an American fight at 10pm UK time and then wait until the early hours of the morning to watch a British guy fight?

    Because the British guy is worth 2 bob. He doesn't have a proper TV deal (hence this primetime bollocks) and has about 7,000 fans turning up to watch him.

    Abraham-Taylor has about 15,000 seats sold and will be watched by 5-10 million on German TV.

    Because Brits arn't the audience clearly. Showtime are the broadcasters and so obviously they need to cater to the American audience. I guess 2am over here is about 8 pm there, they clearly wern't going to put showtime on 4 pm or something to cater for us

    I don't mind the 2am start, its the same as Calzaghe Lacy and that was one of the best British fight nights in years.

    Yeah Showtime and the Germans need to be primetime too.

    2am isn't so bad a start time but it's not good when the British undercard is beyond dire.
