    Well it's on in Vegas which is 8 hours behind us. That should put paid to any plans you may have of watching it in a pub.

    | think the SE Asia comment confused the issue. I take now that you were saying you aren't in Ireland atm, so you've no idea of times right now.
    To clarify, it'll be early hours, after pub closing times. You'll need to watch it at home, at a mates or online.
    A couple of venues might be showing it, but nothing concrete i'd say

    Not all depends where they are on when they are in Vegas though yep usually a 3 start but this card could start a 2 depending on what way they are running the main card. Conor prob be fighting sometime between 4-5 depending on how quickly fights are ending.

    Would be absolutely amazed if anywhere was showing this. Only place that stays open later than most is Coppers and the chances of it being shown in there would be slim to none.

    You're better off just catching it at home with a few beers tbh.

    Conor will be fighting between 4-4.30. He is third fight up before the co-main event, the main event's usually ringwalk around 5-5.10.

    unlikely but does anyone know bars in Liverpool that show UFC? I'm going over this weekend for the football and don't fancy the chances of an ibis hotel having bt sports in the rooms lol

    TheLivingRoom just said they are showing it too, really thought the woolshed would, considering they were showing the world cup rugby super early matches. Ah well.....

    Prelims start at 1. Main card starts at 3am. Conor is the 3rd last fight so id be watching from half three onwards if your not a mma fan. Some good fighters on the prelims tho. Only back from oz so couldn't tell ya where to watch it. At a house with friends the best bet.

    Really? I asked them but never got a reply.

    Scratch that seen it there, word of warning no entry after 11 lads , but it would be a great spit to watch it.

    They prob won't be serving alcohol. Or maybe a loophole exists.
