    The casino "cool hand lukes" was showing Mayweather-Hatton last year so you could give them a ring. You wont have much luck with pubs cause of the time the fight will be on although you might get lucky.

    Lukes has closed down, so might pop into the fitz but the sound is never on :(

    Yeah im sure somewhere would have it. Try your luck with hotels. They may let you stay if there are residents up drinking late (residents bars are all night arent they?) i was in bewleys newlands cross one night and they had a fight on around 11 so im sure if there are people in the bar late they would show it.

    Setanta are advertising it for 11PM, so what....6 hours of Barry McGuigan?

    Unless they're on NYC time of 11PM?

    Coverage starts at 11 which is very early. The fight will be on at 3 at the earliest (i reckon) or as akindoc said possibly 5.

    Has anyone a definite time for the fight?

    When Calzaghe fought Hopkins i managed to see it in Copper Face Jacks at 3 am in the morning You could try there but as was said if it's on at five your best bet is a hotel bar.

    Calzaghe vs B-Hop in Vegas started at 3.15 (that's when they started walking in).

    That was pretty early especially for a Vegas fight. Consider Mayweather vs Hatton started at 4.40am. They normally start around this time.

    I'm not sure what time it will start at exactly. I suppose it depends on the undercard but the Roy Tito fight was in MSG and started at 5am.

    Cotto vs Mosley was on at MSG and that started at 4am. (Margarito had KO'd Golden Johnson in 1 round in the previous fight).
