Laila Ali to fight in Cape Town
With 18 knockouts under her belt and one of the world's most legendary boxers as a father, triple-crown super middleweight champion Laila Ali is coming to South Africa for her next bout. Sports Minister Makhenkesi Stofile's spokesperson Zweli Mnisi told The Star 28-year-old Ali, whose nickname is She-Bee Stingin', would travel to South Africa in August, but a final date had not yet been set. He was also tight-lipped about who her opponent would be, saying that Stofile would break the news at a media conference next week. The bout will be held in Cape Town. Mnisi said the probable venue would be the Good Hope Centre.

Laila is a good dancer, but she's also a professional athlete (like Apolo) so I would expect them to excel in a physical competition. Also, Joey Fatone is a professional dancer so he has an advantage as well. My personal favorite dance team is Ian and Cheryl. They have so much personality and give each dance 100% effort. Ian is not a professional dancer or athlete, but yet he has all the talent of the rest of them -- last week he received six straight "9s" from the judges. I hope he surprises everyone by giving his best performances in the next two weeks and capturing the trophy. If you like Ian and Cheryl, please do your part to vote for them on Monday -- vote 4 times for each phone number and 4 times online. Also, Ian has really cool videos on his websites at www.IanZiering.com and www.MySpace.com/OfficialIZ and there you can sign up to receive his fun email blasts.
