Nathan Cleverly next fight @ Wembley Arena - 16th March

Tue Jan 15, 2013 11:25 am

For any boxing fans you may have seen the announcement that Clev is fighting the first of 2 potential mandatorys on 16th March @ Wembley arena. It forms part of a superb show.-

So along with Clev vs Krasniqi there is also the following -
- WBO world lightweight Ricky Burns v IBF world lightweight champion Miguel Vasquez.
- George Groves v Mohamed Ali Ndiaye for the vacant European super-middleweight title.
- Commonwealth super-featherweight Liam Walsh v Logan McGuinness. Both unbeaten.
- Dereck Chisora may be on the bill if the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBoC) grant him a license.
- Neil Dawson v Tony Conquest

Tickets are priced from £40 - £200 for Ringside and as usual we'll be running coaches from South Wales to London for the fight. Tickets should be in hand next week and coaches to be booked shortly so price will then be confirmed.

Cardiff are away at Sheff Weds that day so imagine a fair few will be obviously attending that but if anyone does fancy the boxing then feel free to get in contact.

I agree, hope he pushes for a big bout in the ccs in the near future, would really get the south wales public behind him, hope he stays undefeated untill that night comes....what a fuking night that would be

Without a shadow of a doubt Clev wants a fight at the CCS and I believe this will happen.

In terms of the 16th March show being on TV ..... it will be live and exclusive on Boxnation. For those not aware its a boxing only subscription channel but if you don't have it then check with your local pubs as more and more seem to be subscribing to it. I know the Poets Corner on city road for example have it...... costs £10 a month but i guess only hardcore boxing fans subscribe generally for that cost.

cheers

Heard a story that steve collins is coming out of retirement to face roy jones jnr ffs, don't know how true it is, but that's one fight I really hope doesn't happen. They both must be about 50years old now

I don't believe there's any restriction on age but will confirm once tickets received as it will state on there.

We've been running trips to Clev fights for a long time and the coaches usually have some younger fans on there....one lad in particular who boxes himself is only 13 and attends with his dad and has never had an issue getting into a venue.

Hope that helps :)

Quick update....for any egg chasing fans we're hoping to be in London by 5pm so that people can watch the Wales vs England 6 nations game near the arena if possible. pick up times to be confirmed as and when locations are confirmed.

Tickets ultimately held up due to weather but we're still hopeful of getting our allocation this week!

All PM's have been responded to and if any further questions just give me a shout :ayatollah:

I pay for BoxNation and I think it's definately worth it if your into boxing. Usually a world title fight every weekend. And a lot better fights than the ones cleverly has been in recently

I supposed now wouldn't be a good time to tell you that Ringsides were £200 each!! :o :ayatollah:

Each to their own mind.

Just wanted to give this a quick bump as the fight is only 3 weeks away!

Still a few seats left on the Cardiff/Magor bus (other pick ups still available also) for the fight but only now have the £50 tickets available.

CC Box office now also has tickets to purchase from there if people wanted to take up this option.
