    I had a good weekend, musrt say in enjoyed Dusseldorf more than the fight night.

    The atmosphere was non existent up until the final fight. the main event itself was boring to watch. The half hour of comedy, music etc was absolute dire to sit through. the undercard was average but some watchable fights nonetheless.

    Shame Haye never made the fight, think it would have been electric, as it stands the only time i was amazed was by the ring entrances!!!

    great weekend but **** fights.i was happy to see andy lee live again even though his performance was dire.wlads entrance was amazing but its a bad sign when the entrance is the highlight of the card.thought the german people were proper wankers but it was still a top weekend and i met a few of the fighters

    From what I saw from the US coverage they had fireworks going off, and Monks in the tunnel with bowls of fire alligned infront of each Monk as their hero God Wladimir walked into the arena.

    What is it with the Klits ring walks?? You can put a dress and lipstick on a turd, but its still just a turd...the robot should be trying for fireworks in, not outside the ring

    The entrance was spectacular.

    He had mini fires in the walk way to the arena, monks in the halls, steel workers lining the entrance, about 10 fireballs going off and fireworks indoors.

    Shame that was the highlight though. Chaguev was poor, wlad knew how to win and did the job. wouldnt pay to watch Wlad fight unless its against a brit

    I was surrounded by germans, they dont go to sporting events for the atmosphere. They just sit and clap every now and again

    found the entrance on youtube.computer wont let me get it on here for some reason but search "wladimir klitschko entrance schalke arena 60000 fans" and you should see it.tv cameras missed a lot of the fireworks though

    I had a great weekend in Dusseldorf. Met a lot of good Brits and got on well with the locals. The pubs and clubs were good to. Meting the Hit Man yesterday rounded off a very memorable weekend.

    i had a great eekend ,we where in gelseerkirchen on friday and sayt night and we found a pub that sold larger by he keg!on the night of the fight i find the germnas look for a diffrent way to watch sport,not my cup of tea .we were singing and germans were shouting for us to sit down and physically trying to pmake us sit down!i found it sooo funny .

    also one germna shouted to us to sit down as "its a boxing match not a wrestling match":rofl
