I have a profound interest in Boxing, so much that I recently wrote to Boxing News about David Haye's first defence of his WBO world heavyweight championship belt against the American John Ruiz. My thoughts made this weeks letter of the week, because believe me when I tell you I know this GAME! FOR me, David Haye did nothing wrong. John Ruiz is a world-class opponent who got taken apart by Haye's lightning-fast reflexes, power and ring generalship. Ruiz was never going to bother Haye with his tactics of taking shots but still coming forward. There wasn't the speed or the dynamics.

Got a invite to Mammal Club's one-off gigs at their rehearsal rooms last night. I must admit they were different, and not what I was expecting! They also covered a Tears for Fears classic. Wicked.
