    I know it was announced yesterday that this was set for 25th May but I've just read on another site that the date is the 27th April.

    Can anyone confirm what the hell is going on?

    if am honest the April date suits me better because am ****ed if am going to London the May date with the CL final on the same day.

    I'm pretty sure it's May, but the April date is better, why clash with CL final? seems stupid to me.

    i can't believe they are going h2h with the CL final that is stupid and is going to hurt PPV buys dramatically... Unless they have a deal with HBO and do the fight at 2 AM

    probably only really matters if an english club makes the final and then only if its extra time and pens makes it a 10.30 finish

    probably wont bother much with an amazing undercard if no one will be watching it

    was it price who had a fight last year cl final night and was kept waiting until it was finished??

    Surely Eddie isn't that stupid!
     
  11. It wouldn't clash anyway, it'd be after the football. Cracking day of sport.

    that's all good and well but what about those of us having to travel down and book accommodation?

    its hardly cheap in London and it could all hinge on who makes the final.
     
  13. Travelling down before kick off and watching it in London isn't that much of a hardship.

    I wouldn't worry, don't think a British team's going to be there anyway.
