    Well if it is half as good as 'Seconds out!' was, then it has value.

    About time they come up with a concept.

    Will the match ups be competative AND will the FOTN bonus be mouth watering. I hope so.

    good idea - if the match ups are decent - good to see them trying something

    should try and make it interactive get the crowd / viewers voting for fotn

    maybe a vote to pick a fight to see in the next months shows ( dunno if this would work )

    With the way Franky is struggling, FOTN bonus will be about £100

    Sounds great, another masterstroke from BN.

    Hopefully this will give prospects who wouldn't normally get their fights on TV a platform. Can only be a good thing.

    I know exactly what you're saying...but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt FOR NOW. Lets have a few of the shows before crapping over it as it has a lot of potential BUT only if they actually have competitive match ups. As others have said Prospect v Latvian Lemmings=bad, Prospect v Prospect=Great, Prospect v Solid Journeyman=More than acceptable.

    Their normal cards but without the pretense, give some lads a chance to get on telly and fight more regular great move :good:good
     
  10. I just hope that Allegedly jr doesn't electrocute himself ripping out the copper cable trying to get the cash together for FOTN.

    Just sayin'.......
