What time do you reckon the actually fight will be. HBO under card first, Ortiz/Campbell so I think 3:30/4 am ?
This will be 2 boxing events The Mitchell show with Booze, crisps etc The Khan show is a breakfast event via Sky+ I no longer have the pace for British-USA double header and fade by the main event
Not 100% but a i doubt it. I'd have thought Khan vs Paulie would be due on about 10pm East Coast time in American. Could be wrong though.
seeing as the fa cup final is on during the day on saturday, ITV can get some good promotion of the fight during their coverage of the football
No. HBO are on air at 2.45am with Ortiz v Campbell first, and then Khan v Malignaggi in the main event. Unless ITV have convinced them to switch the ordr of fights which I really don't think they will have the power to do. So Id be pretty certain we will get both fights, with Khan starting around 4.00 at the latest if Ortiz v Campbell goes 12 rounds. EDIT: Props for the Warrior avatar though
Even if ITV starts with Khan, don't they usually show the undercard afterwards like Sky do on friday nights?
Ah ok. As usual i'm talking shite. 11pm just seemed a little late to me for an East Cost PPV main event to start.
Nah, thing is HBO have the main events as late as possible so it's not too early on the west coast. And it's not a PPV, BTW Showtime do it differently, as they show boxing live on the east coast, and then on a 3 hour delay on the west coast so it is shown in prime time there. Hence why the Vasquez v Marquez card coming up is on from 2-4-ish, which is much nicer.
