    He's gone back a lot... seems to have forgotton everything he used to do in the ams. He was strong but very clever.... Watched him fight Stevie Bell live twice.

    brawleys doing well in the final. burke just wants to get that cut open and end the fight that way.

    Prize fighter needs to get the decent fighters in or this will be the death of it. The only thing good about it was the cut man the rest was terrible.

    I think the Prize Fighter idea has run it's course. It's been on a downward spiral ever since the original program. No doubt it'll continue as long as the viewing figures are healthy.

    When you think about it it's a fairly cheap evenings boxing. Winner gets £25k. What about the other boxers? Do they get paid or is it a winner takes all?? Sky must be loving the format if all it costs them it the purse money + a couple of camera and a commentator. Bingo 3 hours of an evening filled.

    i think its winner take all.

    i think the format will continue, and to be honest whatever we think of it, we'll probably continue to watch.

    this prieighter isnt everyones cup of tea but as a betting medium i think its great value last month i backed oakey and paid for my driveway to be done, tonight i has £50 on brawley at 7/2 and £70 on burke at 5/1(betting one in eachside of the draw gives more value) having dived in and out of betfair and laying abit of burke at 1.61 before the final ive ended up drawing £320 on the night, not quiet easy money but not far from it!!
    hope the rest of you nicked a few quid

    I believe you get a grand for taking part and more money if you proceed after each fight.
