    That's a good domestic line up. Sprott and Skelton looking to get back into the mix of things while having some good tear ups with Holden, Fridge and the usual cannon fodder but given the format, anything could happen.

    Michael Holden is the worst, came back after 6 years out for a prizefighter, had a tune up on the Simpson vs Trucott II undercard, and could only draw against the mighty Tomas Mrazek (and went down in that fight)

    McBride shouldnt be in there. He has nothing left. This is one of the worst line ups theres been yet

    they would have been better trying a division not been done before with a full list of boxers that have not entered the competition before

    He got knocked out by Holyfield recently. I think he's done. So it could actually be him!

    No I think McDermott might well be the wildcard.

    Didn't they say the wildcard would set the tournament on fire or something?

    Ali Adams could well spring a surprise! He's got the perfect style for prizefighter. Tyson Fury was considering the 8th spot but then Hennesy organised the shobox date for him. McDermott is only just back in training, Rogan has said no so hopefully it'll be an up and coming boxer. There are plenty about.

    Hope it is Towers or Dallas, someone with a bit of promise, with a potential future in the sport.

    Just looked at the records of some of these and unless the wildcard is half-decent Skelton will **** it even though he is way past his best.

    Shocking line up.
