I’ve looked it up and it seems this - the big fight of the weekend - goes ahead at the Barclays Centre in Brooklyn, N.Y. (does Garcia fight out of Brooklyn?)....maybe, maybe not......

Anyway - that must put it in the same time zone as The Garden - so I would ANTICIPATE a ring entry time for these two at around 4am to 4:30am, UK time. Unless I’m getting mixed up with the Vegas fights.
Anyone got a clue please?

EDIT - Scrap that. I always remember Mayweather and Oscar getting in the ring around 5am but that was Vegas! I am (hopefully) reliably informed by the internet that New York is 3 hours ahead of Vegas......so in the ring at perhaps 1am UK time?

Yeah 1ish, 2. Not too long after the card over here finishes. Shouldn't be too late of a night.

I think Garcia fights out of LA, I could be wrong.

Garcia is from Philly. East coast kid, probably 3 am fight time in the UK.

I thought LA rang a bell too but you’re correct Philadelphia must be fairly close to Pittsburgh then.
I didn’t realise Danny Garcia was still only 28yrs old - seems to have been around a good while now. I’m also quite surprised he has maintained an unbeated ledger, considering I’ve seen him labelled this week as “a flat footed fighter with poor movement”
His record suggests otherwise to me. Mind you, I thought Peterson whupped him and apparently he’s been considered fortunate on some other occasions too.

He's perpetually underrated but not unbeatable. My money is on him here. Philly & Pittsburgh aren't too far apart. 6 hour drive or so.
