Heavyweight Boxing: Chisora v Klitschko
Vitali Klitschko and his brother have dominated the heavyweight boxing scene for a while and its actually getting a little boring watching them win (almost) every fight for the past 10 years. Dereck Chisora a 28-year-old British trash-talking heavyweight gets his chance to end the winning streak on Saturday in Germany.
Chisora is a massive under-dog in this fight and you’d only be one of two things to bet against Klitschko defeating him on Saturday which is 1.Crazy or 2. Brave.

Mid-Week European Football Review
UEFA Champions League last 16
Bayer Leverkusen 1-3 Barcelona
Barcelona have all but qualified for the quarter-finals after Sanchez and Messi put Barcelona 3-1 in front in the first leg ahead of the second at the Camp Nou two weeks time.
Leverkusen sat deep and invited Barcelona on to them hoping that they wouldn’t break them down but 4 minutes from half time Sanchez scored his first champions league goal.
In the second half Bayer came out a little bit more positive creating chances and even equalizing but immediately conceded again then late in the game Messi capped off the victory with a volley.
Leverkusen never believed that they could beat Barca they looked scared, shy and they gave them too much respect. Bleh!

AFCON: Semi-Finals Review
Zambia 1-0 Ghana
A penalty miss by Asamoah Gyan on the 7th and Emmanuel Mayuka’s goal on the 78th minute was enough to sink the Black Stars.
Zambia will meet the winners of last evening's other semi-final between Mali and Ivory Coast in Sunday's final in Libreville.
That match is set to provide an emotional stage for the Zambians as they return to the city associated with one of the country's most dreadful events.
Libreville was the city where a plane carrying the Zambian national side refuelled in before crashing into the Atlantic Ocean in 1993, killing all 30 people on board.

Pakistan 3-0 test whitewash against England... Shame…
Pakistan finished their first ever uncontaminated sweep against England in the Test series on Monday. The Pakistani spin attack was way too much to deal with for the English batsmen, Abdur Rehman and Saeed Ajmal (the Man of the Series) shared 43 wickets between them in a three match Test series and they asked all the questions that England couldn’t answer.

Weekend European Football Review 3-6 February 2012
English Premier League
Fight for the League
Manchester City 3-0 Fulham
After Man City scored that penalty within the first 15 minutes we all knew the outcome, Fulham, a poor away side, were never going to come back. BOOORING!
Chelsea 3-3 Manchester United
Two penalties by Wayne Rooney and a free header 6 minutes from time by Chicharito capped off an astonishing comeback by Manchester United.
United were controlling the game but after an own goal by Jonathan Evans they found themselves 1 goal down 10 minutes before the half time break.
In the second half after only 5 minutes ManU were 3-0 goals down, goals that came from an incredible volley by Mata and an own goal by Rio. By then the match looked over but knowing the Chelsea defence-which didn't even have Terry and Cole- it wouldn't of been impossible for them to concede 3 goals in the remaining 40 minutes.
Long story short Manchester United fought their way back and they gained a point and the Blues lost two. GREAT GAME!
