    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.

    I'll be in Dublin, so, just wondering what time it'll be on and where to watch it.

    I'm confused.

    | 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

    Does the Woolshed not open in the early hours for some sporting events though?

    What time will Conor be fighting 2:30-3 am?

    Doubt anywhere would get a permit to stay open


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,441 ✭✭✭xtal191


    Will prob be closer to 5am, don't main cards start at 3am here?

    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭projectgtr


    Did anyone happen to find anywhere? :confused: looking for somewhere / anywhere in Dublin to watch it. Surely has to be somewhere to watch it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    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.

    Publin.ie tweeted asking if any bars are showing it, not sure if any response.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,430 ✭✭✭GiftofGab


    Harry’s on the green – it’s a bar beside St. Stephens Green – is showing the fight live.

    Check their facebook page.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 599 ✭✭✭Ian Whelan


    It's supposed to be on 3e as well although I can't see it advertised etc.

    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭projectgtr


    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.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭copey


    He won't be fighting til 4 I reckon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 Mikesallins


    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,624 ✭✭✭Dancor


    The Woolshed in Dublin will also be showing it.

    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.

    How are all these places gonna stay open?

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

    McGowans In Phisboro will also be showing the event.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Four pubs showing the card.

    Harry's on the Green
    The Woolshed
    The Living Room
    McGowan's.

    Fairly decent options. If I was out and about I'd probably be inclined to catch it in the Woolshed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,290 ✭✭✭Oregano_State


    I'm going to bed now in a few minutes, hoping to get a few hours kip. Alarm is set for 3am, but I'm going to be looking for a stream to watch the fight on. If anyone could PM me link or two that would be great, although I may manage to find one myself. Cheers.
