Ex-champ to be served zhizhig galnash (not a typo)
Former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson visited the Russian republic of Chechnya this week and received a hero's welcome. Attending a local boxing show, Tyson told the predominantly Muslim crowd. The war-torn nation's deputy prime minister is expected to benefit politically by bringing in Tyson with elections coming up soon. The deputy prime minister told the press "We shall welcome him as a dear guest in accordance with Chechen traditions and will treat him to our ancient meal, zhizhig galnash [meat with dumplings]." source: BBC
