    This is supposedly on in five hours' time, yes? :huh

    8pm-10pm UK/3pm-5pm EST?

    Boxrec lists it as being on EuroSport, and so does a recent uk.yahoo.eurosport.com article.

    ...and yet:

    Are we getting some domestic Friday evening donnybrooks to wet our whistle for ESPN2 FNF in eleven hours' time, or not? :mad:

    Oi, can someone turn on their box and lemme know what it says on any of the ES channels?

    Is there boxing on any of them, or is live tennis spanning ubiquitously as it appears on Sky's listings?

    My sceduler says it starts at 21:00 on EuroSport. (It's 16:28 over here in the Netherlands)

    That's weird...so maybe it's on continental EuroSport but not in the UK? :think

    That's very weird, considering it's a domestic card featuring nearly all Brits whom nobody other than Brits has probably ever heard of! :lol:

    Actually it could be that mainland Europe is being offered a glimpse of unbeaten Czech middleweight prospect Stepan Horvath in a potential showcase against Max Maxwell and they are treating it as the main attraction (for them) despite being on the undercard. :think That might explain it.

    Also, Menay Edwards is up against a teak-tough Latvian journeyman. (we all know what a sterling reputation they have, up there with the Ghanaians :!:)

    Everything else I believe is limey on limey crime.

    That would mean my sceduler isn't updated yet.
    Wouldn't be surprised if I get a full hour of WHATS when I tune in then :mad:

    tbh I'd be keener for Horvath vs. Maxwell if it came down to a choice.

    It'll probably be **** but any boxing is better than no boxing

    Is Horvath any good? hard to tell looking at his record.
