    With ring walks being around 5am and under(whelming) card being what it is what are you guys up to ?

    I'm getting an early night, around 9ish and setting the alarm for 3.50.

    Can't risk doing an all nighter now at my age.

    I train at my boxing gym early on a Sunday morning as it’s the only time I have in the week. So I’ll be sleeping and setting an alarm. I’ll be ****ed though, I can never get an early sleep in, will probs drift for an hour or two before the alarm hits.

    Jumping on the PS4 for an hour or two with a few bottles of beer now. Kip by about half 11, wake up at 3:30 ish. Back to bed after it.

    Watched way too fights at that time completely ****ed, either sleep wise or booze.

    Alarm set for 0330. Always get really nervous for these events. Big fan of Fury for a decade

    Enjoy lads. Planned to watch it but late one last night up with the baby so will catch it tomorrow. Part of me hopes the bairn gets me up again through the night. Preferably about 5am.

    Hope he does it tbh. Hes 2 or 3 fights away from walking away with basically a fairytale story. Very few including myself expected fury to get this far. From watching his debut...arguably losing to mcdermott....getting knocked down from guys we,ve never heard of. To Beating klitchko. Then the whole lay off. Then coming back to basically beating wilder. Chuck in depression/the weight gain the whole ben davidson story and now onto the kronk. Its been a rollercoaster.

    Sleep by midnight hopefully. Wake up 4am then kip again for couple hours when fights finished. If the fight is a good one I doubt I will be able to sleep after lol.

    4 kids have killed any chance of doing an all nighter. Then days are looooong gone.

    In bed now, should be asleep within an hour. Alarm set for 4.35. Probably go and train about 7 and get another early night on Sunday.

    Early rise, I tend to be up at 6 am most days, so waking up an hour early is not a problem. All-nighters mess me up now I'm in my late 30's, It would take me a week to recover.

    If I wasn't in work in the morning it'd be a gang of lads over and a big bag of coke but seeing as how I'm in work at 7.30, it'll be kip asap and alarm for 3 o'clock. A quick hour kip before work although that prob won't happen after all the excitement. Rough day in work tomorrow and that's without beer. I offered several colleagues €200 to work for me tomorrow and none of them would. Ah well.

    I started drinking an hour ago. I will stay up all night. More exciting watching the whole thing.

    I’m knocking on for 33 now so I will probably pay for it over the coming days but it will be worth. A few drinks heighten the experience.
