        So instead of Abraham-Dirrell starting at 2:30am, it will really be 1:30am.


        Good news, we don't have to stay up as long

        I was under impression it starts at 3.30 originally, and now instead it will be 4.30?? 1 hour forward means 1 hour extra.
        yer they do, good news

            Clocks going forward mean the fight will be on sooner. Think about it; it's 22:47 now - but as clocks are going forward, it means it essentially is 23:47 now. We're skipping an hour ahead.

              I'm fairly sure that once you turn the clocks forward 1 hour, the fight will be on at 3.30 for you. But if you want to be sure, when you turn them forward, also check at 1.30 and 2.30

                Don't know whats going to happen tbh

                I hope it's 1:30am Can't wait to see this fight.

                It'll go 2 ways, Abraham brutal KO or Dirrell boring decision.

                I hope Abraham pulls it off, really like the guy.

                Also, has anyone seen this DVD Documentary on Abraham



                I watched it yesterday, It's English subtitles but was really good, behind the scenes training and stuff. I reccommend it to all.

                Yeah I see what you mean, but if an event is scheduled to start at a specific time, then the event doesn't skip forward one hour with you - you still have to wait the exact amount of time to see it. So by my theory if Primetime says 2.30, then when you turn the clock forward and you check at 2.30, you are one hour too early for the event.

                Oh and Dirrell will look good tonight!!!

                  That's a good point. I guess it's gonna be on the same time as normal, then. Because I don't think the fight will be pushed forward cos British daylight saving time is

                      At this rate I don't think any of us will catch it.

                      By the way, did you order through Sky? I bought the last super six fights over the phone, so this time all I did was order it through the remote on the box office section. That works, right?
