    The PPV price in the US is $70 (too high for this card) for this fight? And, correct me if I'm wrong, but it's scheduled for the card to start around 1 PM ET in the USA, with the main event scheduled for 2-3 PM (ET) on a Saturday afternoon? That would be even much earlier on the West Coast in the US. I don't see how this can be successful here. A lot of people here work on Saturday. I know I used to.

    The 23rd is a Saturday, but otherwise year this is a big ask.

    I guess the thought process is if you'll pay to watch boxing on a beautiful spring day you'll probably pay a lot to watch boxing on a beautiful spring day.

    Anyway I'll see you guys in the RBR.

    That won't be the case. UK is only five hours ahead, and main events don't start at 19:00–20:00. You're looking at something more like 17:00–18:00 on the East Coast, 14:00–15:00 on the West Coast. Actually, knowing Warren, you might even be able to add another hour onto those estimates. :lol:

    oh right, I live in the UK and maybe it`s being aimed at Sky sports PPV audience mainly, plus the stadium attendance will break UK records, the tickets to watch the fight at wembley stadium will be really expensive also, that`s where Claressa Shields wants to fight Savannah Marshall, shame that fight couldn`t be on the undercard.

    I agree. Shields vs. Marshall would have been the most interesting match up on the under card! I might have even ponied up the $70 in that case. I really want to see that 1.

    @mark ant When you make one of these threads, try taking the time to write out the actual thread title instead of copying and pasting it. As in, no more thread titles with @DillianWhyte or @wembley in them. Write out Dillian Whyte and Wembley... you lazy SOB.:rosstheboss

    I thought it was this weekend. Due to another thread I saw here about it.

    My prediction for this fight; The promotion is going to lose money.

    23:00 curfew for Wembley Stadium. Main event will need to finish by around 22:40, or so.

    Ah, good info. Guessing that'd put the main event between 16:00 and 17:00 (ET), @djanders.

    You would think ring walks at 21:30 then. Still can’t get over how poor the undercard is. Why frank didn’t put yarde in with a solid American like Michael Seals is beyond

    70 bucks to see a literal God fight is worth it
