So, we've had "guess who will win", and "guess the fighters' weights", but what I want to know is "what time will this fight actually be on?" I remember watching the Joshua v Ngannou undercard. Here in Japan, I started watching around midnight, and due to a large undercard with huge delays between fights, not getting to bed before 09:00am So, what time do you think the ring walks for the main event are actually going to start?
Supposedly 6pm EST for the ring walks. I imagine it will be within 10-15 minutes after that. And another 10-15 of ceremonial BS. I reckon it'll start shortly after (or right around) 6:30.
I have two betting apps (AUS) - one lists a 7.30 A start and the other 8 A. I’m going to add 1 hour to the later time of 8 A to arrive at 9 A - again, that is AUS time. That includes allowing for the time that it will take to cajole a quivering, frightened Fury from out of his dressing room. Lol, I am kidding. In UK time that = 12.00 A. Apologies, but I like to show my “workings”.
I think we are on the same time zone here in Japan. Actually, all this has got me thinking, obviously this fight isn't going to cater to our time zones, but just about the suggestion Inoue might fight in Saudi Arabia, or even in Britain on a Joshua undercard... That would put an Inoue fight on at 7am on a Sunday mornng. I doubt his Japanese fans would be too happy about that, as he usually headlines close to 9pm. I wonder if concessions would be made to have a day-time fight for UK time, and late evening for Japan. Anway, looks like we'll be getting up early tomorrow to catch Sanchez v Kabayel
You should be perfectly fine, I'd imagine. I'd be pretty shocked if it happened before 6:15 and absolutely amazed if it were before 6pm EST. But then again, what the hell do I know? Enjoy, kirk!
I've pumped for an hour delay - mainly because I think Fury will delay his ring walk and really eek it out and make Usyk wait in the ring as long as he can
Hopefully before midnight UK time Gonna take a nap in the afternoon just in case it drags on. Feeling sleepy during the main event is awful
Yeah, no worries, that’s why I stressed that everyone should check for themselves as to when the fight starts. To allay any concern I’ve deleted the post.
I'm screwed. We're doing a late mother's day today. Restuarant reservations 215 pst in Cali. Damn! I've been looking forward to this fight for a long time.
