I’d be interested to know too - no chance am I staying up, but considering setting an alarm for the main event instead of watching it all in the morning.
I wanna say 4am.. show starts at 1am, 3 undercard fights.

Call it 3am to be on safe side

Nery looked sharp, if he can keep himself on the right track he could be in some cracking title fights at Bantamweight in the future.

He only mentioned how Porter bïtched out. Surprised he didn’t mention Crawford tbh.

Who knows, he may mention him on the presser.

Maybe because Pac-Man was there.

That was painful to watch. Garcia took a sustained hiding.

Spence is outstanding to the body with his sustained attacks. He just breaks people down just like with Brook.

Really felt for Garcia, he's a tough hombre

At least 5he mouthy MMA scouser got flattened. Made my day

What is with the walking billboards? Shorts plastered in advertising? These guys are picking up a fair few quid in purses and still pimp out their backsides to look like Formula 1 overalls. No biggie, just not keen on it myself.

Spence outboxed him for sure and I saw on The Ring them saying it did not come down to size but skill but that is a load of bollox for me.

Garcia looked a soft as I expected, chubby and looked to have no sharpness at all. He was pushing his punches rather than snapping them in. His movements looked laboured and slow. Reactions marginally dulled.

I am sure most or many here have some boxing or sports experience at some sort of level and if you have ever been a bit out of shape and also in great shape, you know the difference. When I am in great shape everything I do, even getting out of a chair has a little bounce in it, when I am carrying a little weight it is all a little bit more effort.

Yup. Like I said, typical "big" PBC fight. The A side gets to do what he wants 'cos he's in with a smaller guy who can't hurt him. The smaller guy, after trying for a couple of rounds, only presses enough to keep from being totally steam-rollered.

Watched it just now with my breakfast. I started to fast-forward after three rounds & then gave up after flicking through another couple.

Pisses me off a bit when these type of fights are announced & we all go "Whooo! Ahhhh!" You'd think we all know better by now. Wouldn't matter what shape Garcia was in, he's a fvcking lightweight, & he ain't Roberto Duran.

PS: & The Ring are fvcking laughable, frankly.
