Fuji reveal WBSS Bantamweight final time slot
We are now just over a week away from the highly anticipated WBSS Bantamweight Japanese star Naoya Inoue (18-0, 16) [井上 尚弥] and Filipino icon Nonito Donaire (40-5, 26), who will battle for the Muhammad Ali trophy, the WBA "super", IBF and Ring Magazine titles.
As well as the brilliant main event the show will also feature a WBC Bantamweight title bout between Takuma Inoue (13-0, 3) [井上 拓真] and current WBC Bantamweight champion Nordine Oubaali (16-0, 12).
Over the last few days Fuji TV have revealed the TV details for the card.
The event is set to begin it's broadcast at 19:57 local time, with around 2 hours put aside for show, which will feature both world title bouts.
Of course for fans around the world title times will need to be adjusted, so for British fans wanting to watch the show will begin around 11AM UK time. Of course DAZN in the US will also show the event, and will need to be relied upon to present their own schedule, which we suspect will match up very accurately with Fuji, who are the lead broadcaster for the event.
Whilst it's a shame for an international audience that it's on a "work day", we suspect the number of viewers Fuji will be getting will genuinely be huge, and with over 20,000 tickets sold for the bout the mid-week scheduling has done no harm at all to the expected attendance for the bout.
