When to actually tune in
If you only care about the main event, the realistic window is around 11 PM ET / 4 AM BST / 1 PM AEST. Build in a thirty-minute buffer either side. Undercards run long, and Most Valuable Promotions hasn’t staged a full MMA event before, so cage walks easily could drift later than expected.
