Stateside fight fans won’t have to stress over finding grainy (and illegal) streams to catch the loaded fight card in Moscow. ESPN plans to air the card—topped by Alexander Povetkin and Mike Perez in a heavyweight title eliminator—through its various platforms, it was announced Thursday afternoon.

The show will air live on ESPN’s streaming network, ESPN3.com (Friday. 12:30 p.m. ET). ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes will televise the heavyweight fight via same-day tape-delay at 9 p.m. leading into the Boxcino 2015 finals on the series finale of ESPN Friday Night Fights.
