    It wasn't 7 in the am for the people of the Phillipines and Japan, man, where Donaire and Inoue are huge stars. I ain't seen the worldwide viewing figures but I'm willing to bet that they exceded what they would have been if they'd shown the fight on US time by an order of magnitude.

    Honestly it's like some dudes don't get that the US ain't quite the center of the entire universe just yet.

      Some people on here enforce that American stereotype. Am actually shocked that they can’t see it.

        You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Koba-Grozny again

          DAZN's production value stinks. One would think when people paying $20/month they won't need to play commercials during the main event. They should of copied the way HBO did it. When the fight started all that mattered and all that HBO concentrated on was the fight. No commercial breaks, no talking to celebrities during the fight, etc. Between every round HBO went to the corners, DAZN does no show that kind of commitment to the fight they are actually showing. People may have legit complaints about their announcers, but HBO's production value and camera work was excellent. DAZN is cheap in comparison to HBO.

            I watched soccer from 11.30pm. then backed up straight into the undercard.

            That's life watching sports from Australia.

            OP should be thankful it's rarely an issue for him. It's every weekend for us!

              That’s a straight up lie. Everyone knows DAZN revolves around UFC.

                OP is American. OP feels Boxing across the world should schedule itself around him and other Americans. Maybe the OP needs to question just how much of a Boxing fan he really is.

                  Damn, you guys ain't got it so bad when it comes to the boxing though, most of the US cards fall something like Sunday lunchtime Down Under don't they? If you'll forgive the stereotyping BBQ and boxing can't be too bad, can it?

                  Us poor saps in the UK have to stay up til between about 4 and 7 in the a.m for the US events, week in week out. US fans seem to reckon many UK fans are dangerous obsessives but in fact most of us are just crazed from years of sleep deprivation.

                    I've become used to the mid Sunday afternoon fights and since having kids actually don't mind it these days.

                      Wow some people are odd. Complaining because dazn are showing it live and not blocking out all forms of social media and any news outlets until someone has finished work.
