BOXING: Mike Tyson will return to the ring for the first time since losing to Lennox Lewis in June when he fights Clifford Etienne in Memphis, Tennessee on February 22nd.
American Etienne, known as "the Black Rhino", holds the title of the unheralded International Boxing Association (IBA) and is the number five-rated contender for the World Boxing Organisation (WBO) heavyweight crown.
The 10-round contest at the Pyramid Arena will be only the third fight in 28 months for Tyson, who was knocked out in the eighth round at the same arena by International Boxing Federation (IBF) and World Boxing Council (WBC) champion Lewis.
Etienne has a career record of 24 wins (17 knockouts), one defeat and one draw. His last fight was a 10-round draw with the ageing South African Francois Botha in July.
RUGBY: Wales coach Steve Hapsen has made just one change to his starting line-up for Saturday's Test against New Zealand at the Millennium Stadium. Pontypridd lock Robert Sidoli replaces Vernon Cooper.
However, Hansen has made a couple of changes among the replacements. Pontypridd back-row Richard Parks takes over from Scott Quinnell, who retired from Test rugby after the Canada match.
And in the substitute backs, Bridgend's Dafydd James returns after he was suspended by Hansen ahead of the Canada game for leaving the team hotel without permission.
WALES: R Williams (Cardiff); M Jones (Llanelli), J Robinson (Cardiff), S Parker (Pontypridd), G Thomas (Bridgend); S Jones (Llanelli), D Peel (Llanelli); C Charvis (Swansea, capt), M Williams (Cardiff), D Jones (Llanelli); G Llewellyn (Neath); R Sidoli (Pontypridd); B Evans (Swansea), R McBryde (Llanelli), I Thomas (Llanelli).
