    Good question, makes a big difference on viewership. Boxing shouldn't interfere with people's night out on the town.

    Bigtime boxing fights have always been Sunday mornings, starting around 10am here in the Philippines.

    Boxing wise, as far back as I can remember, (late 1980's) it's always been like that here.

    The really big ones were beamed live via satellite, from the US.

    The big fights that were held on a Monday or a Friday, they were recorded on tape and shown also Sunday mornings, or sometimes, late night Saturday.
