How to watch Tim Tszyu v Dennis Hogan in Ireland: TV and stream information

Dennis Hogan faces undefeated Australian boxer Tim Tszyu on Wednesday morning Down Under.

The Kildare fighter is the underdog in the betting for the bout, but is adamant that he will win.

The main card is expected to start at 9am Irish time and will be shown live on Eir Sport 1 in Ireland.

Eir Sport customers can also stream the bout live here.

The main event is scheduled to start around midday.

Speaking to the Irish Mirror ahead of the bout, Hogan told The Irish Mirror: "I genuinely believe I'm winning this fight every single day of the week. If we were to fight 100 times, I'd win 99 and a half times.

"It just mystifies me as to how I'd be such a big outsider given everyone I've fought and everything else like that. Of course he's had a hot run there, beating Jeff and someone else, but I think we all know it wasn't the Jeff that beat Manny Pacquiao and even if it was, you have to be confident in your own ability.

"The WBC rankings came out recently and they have me above Tim so I did a funny little post saying 'what do the WBC rankings know that the bookies don't'.

"The casual fan over here knows nothing. They just jump on a hype train and just ride that silly. The actual boxing fan knows what's up. They know it's a great fight and they're respectful."

Tszyu added: "He's a great fighter. I have no disrespect for him.

"But when you get in the ring, it's my ring, my world, and I'm not going to let anyone out.

"I'm not here to kick back. I'm here to do damage with my fights."
