    I'm hoping Enzo Mac will be involved but I have no idea who's in the line up? If anyone does then feel free to let me know.:good

    It wouldn't surprise me to see Ovil McKenzie invited back to defend his "title". Apart from that who knows...

    It's too soon since the last Cruiserwieght Prizefighter to generate a lot of interest which suggests that someone like Enzo would be brought in to add a bit of excitement. I also think that Leon Wiliams might get the gig as well.

    I think the problem would be that the lower down you get the amount of fighters capable of putting on a good performance in such a tournement becomes less.

    I'd actually like to see Barry Hearn limit the amount of prozefighters to 2 a year. Yeah, some have been good and very enjoyable but most have been poor. I don't look forward to them very often at all.

    Like I said in another thread, Prizefighter gets many more viewers than your normal FFN card - Sky will continue to demand the 5-6 tournaments a year. I agree though, 2 a year would be ideal.

    quality, but i wouldn't put jeffries in or anderson, as they do tend to be made up of ex prospects that are a bit shop worn. would put in david in stead maybe. And by the way, hasn't mcguire moved to lhw?

    I'm tired of Prizefighter now myself, if its on a different day so its extra boxing I dont mind but when its instead of a FFN i'm not so impressed.

    The fact is though it pulls a lot more viewers than most FFN's, due to its casual fan/betting person appeal.

    I hope they keep it at the higher weights the Light Welter one had lots of good fighters but not 3 round fighters. Barnes & Lyno looked like it could have been good over 10 or 12 same with Rees and Lynes.

    The Heavies and cruisers were the best i had seen but both divisions are really slim.

    I'd say Prizefighter would be a certain step backward for him now mate, now that he's got the Commonwealth, for me Prizefighters more about younger fighters who can't seem to get the exposure, or older fighters who are perhaps in last chance saloon.

    Obviously I wouldn't mind seeing him in it though as he's a smashing machine :good

    Ye i agree tbh i mean now he has got the belt can probably expect some half decent domestic oppostion for him now which was the problem before but ye it probably is a step backwards. I just am dying to see more of him!!!
