Canelo vs GGG: What time will the fight start in the UK? TV coverage, schedule, timings

Canelo vs GGG is one of the most anticipated fights of the year and is seen by boxing fans as a welcome return to action after the “circus” of Conor McGregor’s crossover fight with Floyd Mayweather.

Mexico’s Canelo has just one defeat on his record, coming against the legendary Mayweather, while heavy-punching Kazakh Golovkin is unbeaten in his 37-fight career.

The bout will be fought for the WBA, WBC and IBF middleweight titles and is set to be an electric occasion, falling as it does on Mexican Independence Day.

What time will Canelo vs GGG start?

While the coverage starts at 1am, the bout itself will likely not get underway until between 4am and 4.30am UK time.

However, that will depend on the progress of the undercard and everything else running smoothly: the most recent pay-per-view event in Las Vegas, featuring McGregor and Mayweather, saw the fight delayed until after 5am due to problems with the online streaming of the action.
