    Typically enough, HBO and Showtime go weeks without showing any boxing-then both stick a card on at the same time.

    HBO-2.30am
    Devon Alexander v Juan Urango for the WBC and IBF Light Welterweight titles

    Showtime-2am
    Leonardo Zappavigna v Fernando Angulo for the IBO Lightweight title
    Vic Darchinyan v Rodrigo Guerrero for the WBC and WBA Super Flyweight titles

    I think I'll probably watch the HBO card, with only one fight it should be over by 4am. Plus it looks more interesting than whats on the other side. Only thing is that Alexander v Urango will probably be easier DL'able tomorrow or monday.

    I fancy Alexander to win, probably by UD and Darch by KO.

    I've got a night out in Liverpool, hopefully I'll be back by 3am for the Urango-Alexander fight.

    Sadly not.

    Was going to but i have to work tomorrow, and ive been to work today so there is little chance i would be able to stay up anyhow.

    I think the fight will be alot better than alot of people think. I also think this could be Alexanders coming out party.

    Definitely going to attempt too! I liike Lenny Zappa and am looking forward to seeing him mix it at a higher level, Also reckon Urango will cause Alexander far more problems than Witter did so a good night of boxing in store

    I'm going to give it a miss, I think:-(. Been looking to both of these fights for ages, but I'm shattered and might just catch both on the torrents in the morning. I think I've reached a point where I am now completely fed up with staying up all night to watch fights sat on the PC on streams. Not stayed up for a fight in ages- I'm becoming less hardcore and more of a casual fan:lol::-(.

    I'll be on hoping Vic's fight lasts a round or one won't be taking my eyes of Juan Vs Devon though.
