    just put Abe-JT on live and then replay as HBO ALWAYS does on major overseas fights. I think it does diminish the significance of the fight. I will avoid the news etc, but that's always a pain the ass if even only for a couple hours.

    As always, though, America is grateful to the Brits for staying up late and being down with Froch-Dirrell live in the wee hours.

    It is hard to stay away from the computer all day.

    well Showtime is starting earlier than usual, but that's because of the other fight. So it's not going to be an all day thing. Probably about 3 hours betweent the actual fight happening and when they show it. Still think it sucks nonetheless.

    What time is JT-AA live? EST

    Showtime did a great job with this whole tourney. The title of this thread does not do showtime justice.

    It's a great tournament and they really have us something to look forward for the next couple years. That delay broadcast is kinda sad though with something so great.

    Not only with Abraham vs Taylor but Froch vs Dirrell will also be on delay cause it's in england. Yea i hate this crap. I complain about Kessler last fight being delay with boxing sites damn spoilers. I learn my lesson is i'm not going to the internet on saturday until after the fight on showtime.
