Here’s the uplifting bit: whether Joshua knocks Paul out in the first round or Paul somehow pulls off a miracle, you’ll have a story. You’ll be the one at the pub the next day saying, “I stayed up until the birds started singing to watch it live.” People will look at you with a mix of awe and pity. Own it.
Life is short. Boxing is weird. And UK time is a cruel mistress. But when you’re wrapped in a blanket, half-asleep, watching two absolute maniacs try to knock each other’s heads off, you realize: this is what being alive feels like. It’s silly, it’s loud, and it’s absolutely brilliant.

So, Set That Alarm
When the day finally comes (and it will, because the internet never lets a good joke die), I want you to remember this: don’t stress about the time. You’re not missing the fight—you’re making a memory. Even if you watch the replay the next day, the thrill of the live chaos is unmatched.
And if you do fall asleep? No shame. Just blame the time zone. “Oh, I didn’t miss the knockout—I was just adjusting to BST.” It works every time. You’re welcome.
