    How do they determine who fights first? Whoever fights first has more recovery time and an advantage?

    Big Bang can do it! Can't wait :thumbsup

    I guess they decide the fighting order by the way of the draw. Casey - Moran was the first fight drawn so hopefully that will be the running order aswell. As I said I am only guessing so don't take my word for it.

    Prizefighter draw completed at Wembley Arena - 23/05/2010

    DARTS legend Phil “The Power” Taylor makes the draw for Super Bantamweight night
    Willie “Big Bang” Casey and Mark Moran will kick off Prizefighter Super Bantamweights at York Hall, Bethnal Green on Saturday May 29.
    The draw for Barry Hearn’s latest eight-man, one night tournament was made by Darts legend Phil "The Power" Taylor ahead of the Whyte & Mackay Premier League Play-offs at Wembley Arena.
    Unbeaten Irishman Casey has won four of his fives fights by knockout and issued a warning to the rest of the line-up, saying: “I’m not called Big Bang for nothing.” Liverpool’s Moran has been out of action for 13 months through injury and will face a stern test against the 28 year-old.
    Former Commonwealth, European and British title holder Esham Pickering faces Barnsley's Josh Wale in the second quarter-final with the winners of those two fights face each other in the opening semi-final.
    The third quarter-final sees Commonwealth gold medallist Jamie Arthur face Welshman Robbie Turley, with unbeaten Ricky Owen facing Yorkshireman Gavin Reid in the final quarter-final.
    Tickets for Prizefighter Super-Bantamweights are available now at £35 (unreserved), £60 (ringside) and £100 (VIP) – call Matchroom Sport on 01277 359900.

    THE DRAW

    Quarter-finals
    Mark Moran v Willie Casey
    Esham Pickering v Josh Wale
    Robbie Turley v Jamie Arthur
    Gavin Reid v Ricky Owen

    Semi-finals
    Moran/Casey v Pickering/Wale
    Turley/Arthur v Reid/Owen

    Fingers crossed you're right. Fitness is always a big factor in these type of competitions. If he got an early KO, which is possible, he could put himself in a great position and be fresh for the second fight.

    me too man it was hard for me to watch

    Manfredo would love a fight against andy lee or matt macklin

    he picked up an ibo strap but he wants to go to one of the big four so the fact they are both ranked makes them look good to him

    From speaking to him in the past i know he would LOVE a fight with Duddy hes been after that for a long time
