So, lets get this straight.
Are we meeting in the Sports Cafe, Haymarket, on Friday 30th January?
Na mate, it's "The Griffin" at Charing Cross/Embankment at 7pm i think.
I can make both dates, so i'm not bothered which we go on - but i'd have thought it'd be best to keep to the 30th now as thats the date which people have discussed and prob asked the Mrs if they're allowed out
Still, thats a quality idea, I like the sports bar in Piccadilly, and may well be a good idea for any future meet ups.
Alright sunshine?
Like i said i wouldn't be able to make the 7th Feb so i'll definitely try and make the 30th.
It does get very busy in the Sports Cafe so you wouldn't hear a thing during the Skelton Francis fight. But if they are showing the Toney McCline fight it should have emptied out by then.
The only people left at 5am will be the hardcore boxing fans.
I was there swaying in front of the big screen when the Lewis Tyson fight was on and it was a good night.

Ideal, I didn't realise it was open so late - so may have to get down there in the future for one of the big fights.

I was there too, managed to find a nice spot at the bar with which to park myself for the whole night (after we'd been let back in of course after the clear out).
The Lewis fans around me just couldn't contain their joy at the end, whereas I just felt nothing but sadness at what I'd just witnessed despite wishing beforehand that Lewis would give Tyson a beating.

Bennie you should try to make it mate, bring Tony as well as he's just down the road isn't he?
I think there'll be about 10 - theres a few of us from BA coming. Should be a good laugh!
Just thought I would introduce myself as I have just signed up!
I am 19 years old, my favourite fighter of all time is Mike Tyson. Plus, I am also keen on boxers such as: Floyd Maywhether, Marco Antonio Barrera, Scott Harrison, Roman Greenburg, Oscar De La Hoya, James Toney etc, etc.
Lastly, I everyone is meeting-up on January 30th - would I be able to come along?
