According to Wales Online, former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson will be coming to Cardiff to host a special event at the Cardiff International Arena on November 8. Tyson, Enzo Maccarinelli and Steve Robinson will pay tribute to the legendary Welsh fighter Johnny Owen.

“Mike Tyson and his late mentor Cus D’Amato watched Johnny Owen’s last fight together in New York. Johnny was one of Mike’s favourite fighters and he’d like some of the proceeds from this event to go towards Johnny’s memory,” said a rep for the event.
