Same time in Lisbon at the moment isn't it? One of those American sports bars is your best bet. Or an Irish pub.

Isn't the same time as Vegas - but know what you meant !

Not sure what time the fight is scheduled for but guess it'll be somewhere between 4am - 6am

Is it just me or is the lead into the fight very quiet? Its in 3 weeks! Even Freddie Roachs "good vs evil" because of Mayweathers habit of smacking women about doesn't seem to be fueling the fire.

Weird.

I think the trouble is that nobody really believes that mayweather can lose. It's such a pity they couldn't have done it when the demand was highest. It's still going to be a big event.

I'm meant to be going round a mates to watch it but fuck,think I'd be pissed by the time it comes on and doing a Houdini lol.

Late start, always. Hours kip at about 6ish and dinner for 10pm.

No way I'm missing it. Would've been better a few years ago yeah but its still a huge fight. But its rare two top fighters fight unbeaten and both in their prime so we should be happy to take what we can get.

Even at his peak pacquiao wasn't unbeaten, he had already lost 3 times by that stage.

This is true yeah! Those two losses on the bounce seem to have finished him in the publics mind but hes avenged the Bradley defeat since. And its champ vs champ.

yeah i want manny to win anyway but really want him to win so that we get sour grapes from mayweather accusing him of somehow cheating using drugs even though they've had the testing and stuff. would make good entertainment even if the fight isn't

      My understanding is that the queues returning back to the UK will be much worse (up to two hours) but the queue entering Lisbon isn’t so bad. That’s just from reading a few forum posts about it though so take it with a pinch of salt!

      World Cup 2026: What is happening with ticket prices? - BBC Sport   Sounds like Infantino has been learning from his buddy if he's running around claiming its all sold out while quietly dumping tickets below face on assorted secondary websites.

      I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
