    1) What time (UK time) does the show kick off?

    2) If Floyd wins, who will be next?

    3) If Khan loses, is it time to retire?

    4) Win or Lose, what's next for Broner?

    5) Your picks for tonight are?

    i'd be very surprised if the Mayweather fight is as early as 3.45 , more like 4.45.

    Very difficult to say on numbers as Boxnation don't release subscriber numbers.

    I suspect around 50k will watch the main event live which isn't great given the amount of money paid for the rights.
