Ho Chi Minh City Boxing

Got free tickets to a boxing event in Ho Chi Minh City this week. There are not many events like this organized in Vietnam but this had been arranged one of the gyms to promote themselves. There were four matches with the main event a English guy against the Vietnamese champion.


It was a pretty good evening. It was due to start at 6:30pm but didn't start until nearly 7:30pm, so again another event running on Vietnamese time. It was held at the front of a sports complex about 20 minutes from where I live.

 
The four fights were very good there was one women's fight which was probably the most exciting one.


As I said the final match was the Englishmen vs the Vietnamese man. It was a close fight and went the duration.


As we are in Vietnam and the judges were Vietnamese it seemed pretty obvious who was going to win and as expected the Vietnamese guy won.


Anyway, it was a good evening and it was free!!!!
