Cardiff CIA
Started yesterday
Can't see many of the boxers going to the film premier or the amateur tournament mind
Tickets for the main WBC ceremony are about �250.

Yes they are all here this weekend!!! Get here now if you want to see them, they are walking around main street and around Cardiff Castle etc. David Haye is here, its only 2 and a bit hours from London. Maybe he will bump into Klitschko in M & S or Marks and Spencers!!!!

Shannon Briggs was not winded no! I thought about trying it by punching him in the stomach but I thought if he catches me I'll be in trouble!!

Cant believe all these famous people are all here in 1 place! People like Duran, Shavers etc, all here! Hagler was meant to be here but couldnt make it.
