By Fantana: Legendary boxer Sugar Ray Leonard will be entertaining real men, such as myself, on April 2nd at Liverpool Olympia in an event put together by Neil Hibbert. The people from Stoke-on-Trent all know and love Sugar Ray because when Stoke were to face Chelsea in their first season in the Premiership at home Sugar Ray came out donning a Stoke City football shirt looking all happy and shit. He even walked onto the pitch and threatened to punch John Terry. Lesser Briton’s will of course know Sugar Ray for being an all-time great, with wins against top blokes such as Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler, Thomas Hearns and Dave Green.
This is a rare opportunity for boxing fans to meet the man who was named “Boxer of the Decade” for the 1980s and the evening will include a photo with the man himself. Sugar Ray will be speaking throughout the evening, taking fans on an insightful journey throughout his career in a non-gay way. Those in attendance will then get the opportunity to ask Leonard some questions.
Of course, for such an occasion the dress code is strictly smart and a shirt and tie is essential. The Liverpool Olympia regularly hosts boxing events and is just to the north of the city centre. The doors open at 6 p.m and the event will close at 11 p.m when everyone will wave goodbye to Sugar Ray Leonard and clutch their photographs with him close to their chests and cherish it forever.
Tickets are on sale now priced £100 and £70. The £100 tickets offer a closer table to where Sugar Ray is sitting and can be bought right now from www.boxingpromotions.co.uk
I recommend you buy them soon because demand is high and they are going quicker than a Sugar Ray combination!
Yours in manliness,
Fantana
