Right now, the rumor mill is churning louder than a YouTuber’s apology video. The fight is supposedly set for a late summer or early fall date—think July or August 2026.
But here’s the kicker: the actual start time is a fluid, annoying thing. For a mega-fight like this? You’re looking at a main event ring walk around 11 PM or midnight Eastern Time.
Why so late? Money. PPV sales. And the fact that they want the UK to stay up until 4 AM to watch a former heavyweight champion fight a man who once fought his brother in a backyard.
It’s a conspiracy, I swear. They want you drowsy enough to buy the overpriced replay.
The Location is Everything (and Nothing)
We don’t know the venue yet. That’s the big secret. If it’s in the US? Expect that late-night window, because American prime time is British sleep time.
If it’s in Saudi Arabia or somewhere fancy? The time gets even weirder. You might be eating breakfast while they’re throwing haymakers.

My advice? Don’t trust the first “leaked” time you see. Trust the official announcement. And maybe buy some coffee. A lot of it.
