    because if they start early then the audience will leave early as soon as the main event is finished. who cares about the lame undercards? unless you want to make the most of out of your bucks.

      They come on at the perfect time if you’re in the CST

      I would be mad if I was on the East Coast. Damn near midnight when they come on

        Hughie Fury and Lawrence Okolie on the same card. Two of the worst fighters to watch

            You live in the wrong coast that’s why.


            In the west coast main events starts at a perfect time in between 8:30-9pm

              Bars, Vegas/Atlantic City gamblers, last minute buys

              I’ve started falling asleep during boring PPVs. It’s too late.

                  I really don’t mind for matchroom cards; they almost always have multiple fights worth watching.

                  I’m more annoyed when it’s a frank Warren card because it’s rare there is anything below the main event I want to watch so I have to try and tune in at the right time. It’s also one of the reasons I’ve never yet bought a Ppv of any of franks cards but have several of matchroom, because it’s just better value for money.

                  This card I’m looking forward to bakole kuzmin, but also fury and okolie fights to an extent. I’ve never seen Florian marku fight yet either so looking forward to seeing him fight.

                  So overall there is five fights I have a level of interest in for this card.

                    11 pm if you're lucky. 11 :30 is usually the time ppv main events start on the east coast.

                    Now you may get a espn main event around 10-11. But not ppv. They be prolonging it for no reason

                    The co main can end at 10 30 and the nain event still dont start til 11:30.

                      I've paid for it, why am I getting adverts in between rounds about your drag queen program cornering is part of the fight FFS.

                      Hope DAZN survives long enough to come over here and wipe out Sky boxing.
