    Leaving for airport at 4:45am , do people reckon the fight will be on by 4am UK time ???

    Whats the average for a Vegas fight ? I've seen main events as early as 3am but I've also waited up till 5ish !

    Be gutted to pay £15 then miss it !

    You've got no chance. Barring three early KO's on the undercard (like Mosley v Mora last year) it'll be a 4.45-5.00 start.

    Even then mate they'll just drag the start of the main event out to fill up the HBO program slot.

    Yeah start times are set, early finishes will be filled by the studio and/or replays of earlier fights.

    Well they dragged out the start of Mosley v Mora last year, and I swear even then that it started just after 4. That's the only HBO/Showtime PPV I can remember where the main event started before 4.45, but that really was an exceptional circumstance-I think the 3 undercard fights didn't go past the third or fourth round.
