    So there are different sources citing different times for the live airing of the Chisora-Fury/Theophane-Cook card. Some say 3pm my time (8pm UK) and some say 5pm here (10pm UK). Usually with SKY it's possible to just check their programming schedule online, but this is airing on some weird PPV outlet over there? (not Sky or Primetime or even Eurosport) So I've got no idea where to look to verify the start time.

    I'd like to see both title tilts, and can take or leave the rest of the card. By what time should I be tuning in?

    It's airing for free on national TV over here.

    The PPV in US is getting the full card from 8pm

    Cheers guys.

    :think Huh...it is on PPV over here. $25, and I only really know the four principals vying for the British/Commonwealth titles. Not sure how great a deal that is just for an upgrade to big-screen HD quality.

    So, any word on why Channel 5 denied Theophane-Cook to the British viewers? :huh

    Too tight to give a big domestic boxing card more than the hour and change?

    Just dipping a toe into the market think they have already said they will show Fury's next fight so hopefully the undercard will also get shown.
