The HBO broadcast starts at 10:15 ET, and we'll be live and ready to go for the night's main event in Nashville. It is the only fight televised in the States by HBO.
As an aside, I want to note that Taylor-Lacy is the 100th round-by-round coverage for Bad Left Hook. It's actually a bit more than that if you count two cards within the same post (HBO v. Showtime nights here and there), but this is Fight Night/Fight Day/whatever post No. 100.
