    I heard that Larry Ekundayo and Navid Mansouri arr on the card. They are both good boys. Peeple say Larry is goin to be a champ because he was a good amature from Nigeriya and looked great when he went pro. Nav is tough too. Think Pete Vaughan is there too and he is not bad . At York hall I think.

    Prizefighter 2012. The final Betfair Prizefighter show of 2012 sees the Light-Middleweights III take over York Hall in Bethnal Green on November 3, live on Sky Sports.

    Craig McEwan, Curtis Valentine, Peter Vaughan and Navid Mansouri are the first four names in the line-up for the 27th edition of Matchroom Sport's eight-man, one night tournament, aiming to be the latest man to lift the trophy after Terry Flannigan upset the odds to win the Lightweights II in Liverpool on Saturday.

    Scotsman McEwan was on the cusp of World title action last year when he gave Andy Lee a stern test in Las Vegas and will be gunning to get back into the mix with a win in east London, while Nottingham's Valentine is on a high after a destructive win over Ryan Aston landed him the Central Area title in July.

    Unbeaten Rotherham fighter Mansouri has designs on a first major title shot and 'The Banbury Bull' will be looking to avenge his semi-final loss in the first light middleweights instalment, which also took place at York Hall.

    "On the back of a great Prizefighter in Liverpool, we are going to have eight hungry guys lining up for the big prize in east London," said promoter Eddie Hearn.

    "Craig gave Andy Lee one hell of a fight in March 2011 and he'll be wanting to get back to that level quickly. Curtis showed he has some serious power by beating Aston, Mansouri is an unbeaten man ready to step-up to title level and Peter is a big ticket seller with a lot of heart who loves a tear-up so fireworks are guaranteed."

    No problem mate. Still 4 to be added but at this point it's less likely big names/unbeaten fighters will get involved. I'm just hoping Craig comes through, it should suit him with his amateur background but over 3 rounds luck/avoiding bad luck plays a part.
