    Very unusual start time for FNF.

    There is no set time, but it's usually 9pm EST (sometimes 8 but never earlier, sometimes 10 but usually not later) and it almost always wraps up its two hour broadcast in time to not overlap with ShoBox, which Showtime always airs at 11pm EST.

    No ShoBox tonight (and Solo Boxeo has been moved to Saturday nights this season) - so it doesn't really affect anything as far as overlap. Just wanted to give you all a heads-up in case you're worried about missing it and wondering why it isn't listed on the TV programming guide or ESPN3.com streaming menu as coming up soon.

    LIVE @ 11pm EST/8pm Pacific. :good

    Oh, Samurai's Slice has just brought it to my attention that this WILL conflict with the Telemundo card tonight. I'd forgotten all about Boxeo Telemundo, which does usually start on the later side (and traditionally conflicted with both ShoBox and Solo Boxeo).

    So it's your choice.

    Michael Katsidis in a mismatch-on-paper, where the only likely intrigue will be watching him try and become the first to ever stop Ghana's top light welterweight. Decent co-feature in a rematch between Artemio Reyes & Alan Sanchez.

    OR

    A pair of interim WBO Latino title bouts (woo hoo! :wooo) - Jose Nieves vs. Alejandro Delgado at super bantamweight, and Jorge Melendez vs. Marcus Willis at light middleweight. The latter is much juicier than the super bantam headliner, which only really has the attraction of being PR vs. Mexico.

    :conf

    I tell you what, those Latino championship (I use that term loosely) fights on Telemundo are usually decent scraps!

    Yeah, looked at the times earlier. It let me get my walk/run in with time to spare. 10PM would have worked out better for me. Oh well. Is this in Vegas? Could be they wanted the start time that wouldn't be too early local time. Best guess I can come up with on the start time. Maybe they'll explain on air.

    I got money on under 9.5 rounds for the Katsidis fight at a little bit better than even money. It works doubly for me; Katsidis gets cut and they stop it or [the more likely scenario] Katsidis grinds the dude down and stops him. I'm pretty sure Katsidis wins but I don't want to lay 6:1 on it (especially given Katsidis propensity to cut).
