It's nice in the U.S. because the Joyce-Takam fight will start around 4:30 p.m. or 5 p.m. and the undercard for the PPV starts around 7 p.m., if not sooner on ESPN or Fox. So it all flows together. Planning on bringing a TV outside and cook out with friends. Should be a fun night.
Very nice, great opportunity for boxing to shine on a big stage. Love the outdoor TV, it is my go to whenever possible. Watching college football outdoors in the fall on the TV is only bested by going to the game.
I can't recall a matchup between two undefeated, highly regarded and rated guys on the way up like that in many years. Very exciting. You used to see it a little more often. I remember when the undefeated Dannell Nicholson (the 1992 US Heavyweight Olympian) fought the undefeated Jeremy Williams (a 1992 Olympic Light Heavyweight alternate) ... and Williams shockingly won by KO ... and then Williams fought the 1992 US Super Heavyweight Olympian Larry Donald ... and Williams lost. But none of them were rated in the top 10 at the time, as I recall, like Sanchez and Ajagba are. Same with Joshua vs. Whyte. Joshua was rated. I don't recall Whyte being rated by anyone. Really looking forward to that one.
