    Toney will be odds-on fave but Tank and Beast are my dark horse picks.

    Toney's style isn't suited for 3 round fights and he is beyond shot.

    :nod

    Agreed but on name value and because the rest of the field have dire looking records he will most definitely be the betting favorite despite being ill-suited to a knockout tourney and unlikely to get much benefit of the doubt based on his legacy from British judges apt to be more sympathetic to any of the Brits in the draw.

    Williams and Minto both have styles that could thrive in PF and do actually have some chops. (The former almost kayoed ancient Holyfield, which nobody had done in eight years since the still-functioning Toney himself, and before that Bowe and nobody else - and the latter had Szpilka on his bike all night and has testicles even bigger than his noggin)

    Who cares? Tournaments of has beens and stiffs baffle me. I'd much rather see them try working their way up the rankings fighting better fighters to improve the division.

    xton has pulled out with an injury.

    That leaves six, so they'll need to find two more participants.

    He'll be singing that song in his nineties, if by some miracle his cholesterol artery plaque build-up allows it.

    Clicked the link and the only name I saw was Joshua.:shock::shock::shock:

    I was thinking....."Sh!t......wtf is Joshua supposed to do against Minto coming at him for 3 rds."

    Thankfully I hadnt noticed he was fighting vs TBA and not in the tournament.

    FTR......Minto is gonna take this one.

    None of the other guys has the right style for this type tournament. Toney's CPing would be good if he were fighting complete bums, but when a guy like Rossy can win his fights with his worthless aggressiveness, I gotta think a measured aggressor like Minto has the style to win it.:think
