Floyd Mayweather Jr v Juan Manuel Marquez

DELAYED coverage of card only available due to live clash with UFC PPV on September 20th.
Card will be replayed every 4 hours from 6.00 am AEST on above dates for 24 hour period.

***

I wouldn't set those times and dates for 24/7 in stone as they have a habit of being bounced around. Interesting to see also they're running 3 repeats of Mayweather-Marquez. Also good to see we're starting to get regular showings of recent US cards, even if a few weeks late.

 

Yes.

I'll do a venue & format thread for it next week.
