    Obviously this would never happen but it would be awesome if it did or if it happened in a tournament like format with full fights.

    Agree with your first round apart from Haye would easily stop skelton he has a lot of power and is the much quicker man. Haye has nothing to fear from skelton so would not hold back.

    In the second round Fury beats price. Fury was poor early on in his career but is in great shape and has a better all round boxing game. People slag fury off but he has very fast hand speed and throws good combinations. Price is very one dimensional and has not been tested yet in the pro game. Watch the Cammarelle or stiverne fights. Even fury put him on his ass when he was 17 and out of shape.

    The fight between Fury and Haye would be very interesting. In the past fury has been susceptible to the overhand right (prajick fight) and does not have the discipline and defensive skills of wvlad to keep him on the back foot. This fight could go either way but I fancy fury due to his massive size advantage.

    :lol: BA sums up my feelings, I can take or leave it.

    But lets face it a dream list you'd want over a long duration. 3 rounds just wouldn't be right for the better guys to fight each other. The longer format is the acid test for fighters and it makes for compelling viewing.

    Prizefighter was always meant to be about novice or relatively inexperienced fighters being given an opportunity to make a name (and a bit of money) for themselves. As soon as former, faded champs started using the format as a quick and (supposedly) easy way back to the top, Prizefighter was ruined.

    A "dream" Prizefighter would be one where most of us have never heard of the fighters because they are all novices. It would be great for the boxers, and good for genuine boxing fans.

    A tournament with my favourite boxers would be something like the Super Six. Quality fighters need a well managed and thought out format, not a few 3 round fights over the course of a few hours. Super Six delivered, Prizefighter doesn't.

    Price walks into the ring for the first fight with Sprott in the corner. David walks over to Sprott says something to him, and both walk out.

    Five minutes later the MC takes the mike and announces that the tournament is cancelled. Instead Whyte and Harrison will meet over 8 rounds, Chisora and Skelton over ten.

    Fury will meet Sprott in a 12 rounder and the main event will be between Haye and Price over 12...
