Boxing is the classic late-Saturday-night watch, and the one sport where a stream failing at the wrong moment is unforgivable — a fight can end in ten seconds. Preparation matters more here than for any other event.
Year-round
UK cards usually have main-event ring walks around 22:00 to 23:00. US cards run into the early hours.
Worth knowing: A knockout can happen in seconds. This is the strongest argument on the whole site for using a wired connection.

For UK cards, ring walks are usually between 22:00 and 23:00. American cards run later, often past 04:00 UK time. Ring-walk times move depending on how quickly the undercard finishes.
Use a wired Ethernet connection to the TV if you possibly can, and test your setup earlier in the evening rather than at the ring walk. A knockout can happen in seconds, so there is no time to troubleshoot.
