Brawl On The Wall: Last Day For Tickets
Today is the last day to purchase tickets to the this year's Brawl On The Wall event. What is it? Basically, it's a civilised coliseum fight: nominated boxers fight in the center of a ballroom, cheered on by well-dressed guests in swanky suits and posh gowns who are also dining on four course meals while sipping champagne. Sound like your cup of tea? Tickets can be found here.
White Collar Boxing is a form of pugilism where men and women in white collar professions train for three months for special events. Most have had no prior boxing experience, so an interesting night is guaranteed to ensue. Last year, the Beijinger's very own Nightlife Editor Paul Ryding came out victorious. And this year, the Beijinger is represented again as Dining Editor Cat Nelson dons her gloves in the first fight of the night.
The proceeds go towards Leo's Foundation Beijing, a charity dedicated to helping newborns with respiratory failure.
More information and tickets can be found on their website. Hurry though, the small amount of tickets left are going fast.
