    How can they improve the format of the tournament. i got a few ideas

    1) Up the prize money to 50k to get better quality fighters.
    2) Give 5k for every knockdown. I think in a few there have been no KO's
    3) Try and get 1 fighter from each region (Scotland, Wales, NI, North East, North West, East Midlands, West Midlands, South West, South East, London) to make the fighters represent somewhere.

    any more ideas?

    They all sound like good ideas Rob but I think the extra prize money might lift the bar a little.

    Make it spread out over a longer period of time, make the fights longer, get more recognisable names in the mix.

    I don't want to sound bloodthirsty but they could do with upping the stoppage ratio by some means.

    Do you think reintroducing the Battle Royal would be a step in the right direction?

    I'd rather they didn't. I'd rather they saved up the pennies they spend on these trashy events and put them towards taking Frank off PPV.
