I thought the ring had some sort of cover about 30 foot up ?
Or are they having sideways rain and it's drifting across the ring ?

They do but it only covers ring. And it is slightly Forrest Gump sideways rain here.
I'm fucked but I have my trusted cap. I am laughing at those turning up in their whistles and gonna get soaked.

Just seen the pic exittored posted in the "Rainy Hamburg" thread.
Cant see how the rain would get near that ring unless they had heavy rain and 40mph sideways rain.

Ahhhhhhhh. Hopefully the rain slackens off in that case.

Newsflash...people have got wet in the rain before and survived!
The main thing is that the ring is covered which it will be so we'll be fine

Just been told by someone at the venue that all is ok and going ahead- weird thing for buncey to say without any hard evidence ?

Despite constant rain in Hamburg, Haye v Klitschko is definitely ON. Both camps refused the offer of postponing the fight.

i loved the sight of all of the toffs sat ringside having paid hundreds and hundreds of pounds for their tickets getting soaked....while the mere mortals who paid 40 quid for a ticket were bone dry.
justice for the people!!...
