You can't buy PPVs unless you've been a subscriber for at least 6 months.

Confusing thread title mate! As for the PPV, doesn't usually appear on Sky to purchase until roughly the week before the event, so don't panic just yet

This is one PPV I am not buying. Tough fight but Mayweather will win. I am so certain of the result I cant see why I should part with £20.

I'm not buying either. My Dad turns 65 the day before the fight and it's his last day of work. Him and my Mum fly out to Spain on Sunday at 7am, and I agreed months ago to take them to the airport. I'll doge the result and will download the fight when I get back with a bacon roll and cup of tea.

Mayweather is 4/9 at the bookies Waylon, why not put £45 on and watch the fight for free?
I'll be staying up but I can tell you, it takes its toll on you when you start getting older! Might need a few red bulls to make it but I'm sure I'll wake right up when the fighters walk out

couple of hours kip throughout the day or tea time should help your cause as long as you get back up about 1am
Normally for the big fights i get my mates up get on the drink ect and stay up no problem
but for this one im keeping it low key and im letting kids stay up ( theyre 13 and 15 so they stated staying up at weekends till that time anyway ) me and one of them have Pac man T shirts and my oldest has the mayweather one.
i may have a few beers but this one is one i want to be able to watch closely and remember.
ill give them instructions to throw water over me if im nodding off

Most online bookmakers have it listed at 5.30

I'm thinking about 5.30 am as well. They'll be milking it to the max. Didn't Mayweather-Canelo finish about 6.45am- 7am or something ridiculous like that?
That final hour from 4.30am-5.30am is a killer for us UK guys. The sun will be coming up about 5.27am by next week.

Ordered mine, will be getting up early to watch, I'll not stay up -- I'm no good at all the next day if I've had no sleep.

Yeah for me it's an early night, early start.
I am planning on setting my alarm for 4am, with a 4:30am start expected.

I've arranged for a few mates to come over for an all-nighter, but to be honest I'm regretting it now. Would prefer just to get an early night, set the alarm for 4 & watch the big one, then head straight back to bed. The undercard isn't exactly inspiring either, I sense a looooong boring night.

I don't bother staying up, I go to bed and set my alarm for half 3
