Anthony Crolla vs Vasyl Lomachenko: What time is the fight ? Everything you need to know

It's going to be a very late one for UK boxing fans hoping to see Manchester's Anthony Crolla beat Vasyl Lomachenko and reclaim his world lightweight champion status in Los Angeles on Friday.

Lomachenko is one of the best fighters on the planet and it's going to be an almost impossible task for the 32-year-old Mancunian.

But Lomachenko has said he has respect for his opponent.

"He has very big experience, he has very good defence," Lomachenko told Sky Sports. "For me, I just need to show my best style and 'Style Loma', that's it.

"For me, I always focus very seriously for all my opponents, so he's very dangerous, so I'm focusing."

If Crolla were to win he would strip the Ukranian of his WBA and WBO belts.

What time is Anthony Crolla vs Vasyl Lomachenko?

The ringwalk for the main event is scheduled for around 4am Saturday morning (April 13) UK time, which will be 8pm PST in Los Angeles on Friday night.

Where is the fight?

Crolla vs Lomachenko is at the Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles, California, USA. This is the same venue where Tyson Fury fought Deontay Wilder last year.
