00:00Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua could make their long-awaited heavyweight showdown even more unusual, with their ring walk at
00:11Cardiff's Principality Stadium expected to take place at around 1am, despite already being in the UK.
00:19An application has been submitted to Cardiff Council, seeking permission for the stadium to remain open until 3.30am on
00:29December 12th, allowing the main event to take place in the early hours of Saturday morning.
00:35The fight itself is officially scheduled for Friday, December 11th. The proposed timings are designed to suit the huge American
00:46television audience, with Netflix broadcasting the fight globally.
00:52A short live music performance is also planned immediately before Fury and Joshua make their ring walks too.
01:00The stadium's current licence only permits boxing and wrestling entertainment until 1am, meaning the application needs to be approved before
01:12the proposed schedule can go ahead.
01:15The venue has also requested extensions for recorded music, late-night refreshments and alcohol sales until 3am, with enhanced security
01:27and stewarding arrangements planned as well.
01:31For British fans, the prospect of watching two of the country's biggest boxing stars enter the ring at 1am adds
01:38another intriguing element to one of the most anticipated fights in years.
