    Kuala Lampur is 12 hours ahead of U.S. EDT (GMT+8). Ads say the ESPN+ broadcast starts at 9 PM US time.

    So this means Manny and Matthysse will be fighting around 10 or 11 AM on a Sunday morning their time?

    That's effin weird. Like, is there a breakfast buffet line at the fight?

    Yes. It's weird af. DAZN will start their live coverage at 3AM GERMAN TIME so it's 9 AM in Kuala Lumpur. Really, really awkward time to start a boxing event. Nevertheless i have to stay awake after the Zeuge fight so will watch a couple of movies in between. I love those kind of weekends.

    Probably "Detroit". Looks like a solid movie and it has some good length (2 1/2 hours) to overcome the time between both events.

    Hope it's good. You could always throw Titanic on there, that's like 3 something hours all by itself isn't it? :lol:

    Their stupid streaming service. Shame this can't go on actual tv, or I'd be all over it.
