    I really feel sorry for u guys ... Having to stay up or get up at 2, 3 and 4 in the morning really must suck :(

    I think we are pretty lucky in Australia, cards will start at around 11am to 1pm on a Sunday afternoon and go for a few hours... I really think its the best time, finishes off the weekend in a good way

    so its anytime between 2am and 4am. hmm.

    show starts at 11pm which is around the time the itv4 show finishes so it'll probably have to be an all-nighter in front of the telly.

    I think it'll be closer to 4 than 3. HBO coverage starts at 9pm their time( so that's 2am our time) with 3 undercard fights.

    TV lineup
    The schedule for Saturday's HBO PPV card (9 p.m. ET) from Madison Square Garden in New York:

    • Light heavyweights: Joe Calzaghe (45-0, 32 KOs) vs. Roy Jones Jr. (52-4, 38 KOs), 12 rounds, for Calzaghe's world title

    • Welterweights: Zab Judah (36-6, 25 KOs) vs. Ernest Johnson (18-2-1, 7 KOs), 10 rounds

    • Junior welterweights: Dmitriy Salita (28-0-1, 16 KOs) vs. Derrick Campos (17-5, 10 KOs), 12 rounds

    • Junior welterweights: Frankie Figueroa (19-2, 13 KOs) vs. Emanuel Augustus (38-29-6, 20 KOs), 10 rounds

    Ill be surprised if its before 4am

    East coast fights dont start at 2am, dunno how ppl came to that conclusion:patsch.

    Iv waited up for countless fights for the past 10 years and never witnessed a US main event before 3am.

    It depends which channel they are on in the States. HBO seem to kick all their shows off at the same time, regardless of which city they are in. Setanta showed Malignaggi Vs Ngoudjo a while back and the show started at 1am and was finished by 3am!
