But I'll be there probablly the one in a corner moaning

It would not be to hard to put together 8 boxers from the bottom half of the top twenty that would provide competitive action, a mix of some who have already been in this comp & some taking their first steps there's my list
Tom Dallas 6/0
Larry Olubamiwo 4/1
Scott Mitchell 5/1
Danny Hughes 6/0
Dave Ferguson 9/2
Chris Burton 14/1
Scott Belshaw10/2
Tyson Fury 7/0
I put Tyson in for his crowd pulling where as the rest have local surport Tyson's presence would make sure TV stay on side,It might not be full of household names but as a boxing fan it's the sort of compertition I would rather see.
As regards ticket prices your talking to a guy who spent 5,000 taking my eldest son to Vegas for Hatton's last effort so as they say in the states £40/50 small potatoes
uv missed the whole point I'm sorry, but there's no way Tyson Fury would take part. A promoter can't just magic a list; they have to get the boxers to agree to be involved and sign a contract.telboy66 wrote:I'm not knocking prizefighter as a whole just this line up, as I think someone else has already posted the format should be for up & coming boxers not those having their last throw of the dice.

"Racial undertone"? Don't go accusing people of stuff like that based on nothing.telboy66 wrote:what about the Fury/Khan crowds do I detect a racial undertone here I hope not boxing is for all
Asking that question constitutes an accusation in my opinion.telboy66 wrote:Horse there is a big difference between asking a question & accusing if you read again you will see that I said (Do I) Not I do
We are all entitled to an opinion mate but it certainly was not meant as an accusation I'm far to long in the tooth to go accusing people without overwelming evidence white hoods & burning crosses might be enoughHorse wrote:Asking that question constitutes an accusation in my opinion.telboy66 wrote:Horse there is a big difference between asking a question & accusing if you read again you will see that I said (Do I) Not I do
You can write what you want though, I just don't like to see that sort of thing.
Belshaw was 10-1 when he fought Fury, he had avenged his loss though.telboy66 wrote:Scott Belshaw was 10/0 when Fury took him on.
I think at this stage a trip to the states would be more for American exposure, rather than facing tougher fighters. There are plenty of domestic and European fighters that would give him a tough fight.telboy66 wrote:I see that Mathew Ellis a former Fury victim just lost to Lance Whitaker in the states maybe a good career move for Fury would be to get himself over there for some tougher fights.
