    Not sure if this has already been discussed but the night of the two opening fights Oct. 17 (Froch vs Dirrel & AA vs Taylor), will the fights be aired at different times? as they are both both in Europe.

    Any info will be much appreciated

    I believe I read that the AA v Taylor fight will be at prime fight time for European fans whereas Forch v Dirrel will be later in the night for American fans.

    I have the times listed as follows:

    Abraham vs. Taylor: 21.00

    Froch vs. Dirrell: 22.00

    These are UK times.
    That points towards a possible PPV situation in the UK and Germany, but not in the States where it should be free-to-air.

    Early days, though.

    abraham and taylor will be prime time in germany and froch vs dirrell will be early morning in the uk, around 1 or 2am GMT

    after the AA/taylor fights finish both fighters will be flown over on a private jet to be ringside to watch froch and dirrell this will be done with all the fights, which is a good touch and just keeps things rolling
