All other issues aside, I still find Prizefighter much more entertaining than the average Friday Fight Night.
Same here. There have been 9 Prizefighters so far. I've been to 7 of them, and I think the heavyweights are the best. I guess the next step for Prizefighter is to import fighters or host them in countries outside of Britain.

How about cruiserweights 2? That was by far the most unpredictable tournament so far. You could even have exactly the same line-up and it would still be intriguing to see if certain results could be repeated.

I wasn't that taken by those boxers. Cruiserweight's too shallow for my liking.

Yeah, but look what happened on the night! Upsets and knockouts galore.

I just didn't find it as entertaining as the heavyweights. It might have been the atmosphere as Earl's Court Arena is big and has far too much space. It was like being in an aircraft hangar.

at light middle it could be interesting , dont think many of the higher ranked fighters or up and coming prospects usually risk it but line up could realistically look along the lines of :
Martin Concepcion - 15(10)-6-0
gary woolcombe - 28(10)-2-0
sam webb - 14(4)-1-0
thomas mcdonagh - 34(7)-3-3
karl chiverton - 10(0)-1-1
kerry hope - 12(1)-3-0
neil sinclair - 33(26)-7-0
bradley pryce - 28(17)-7-0
with subs as : taz jones(12(5)-7-3) and andre facey(20(6)-5-2) .
nothing spectacular but worthy of a look .
feedback such as who youd take out and who you would replace them with is welcomed

Britain vs America Team Prizefighter night. HW of course!!
Get points for your team by fighting, 1 point for loss, 2 for win by decision and 3 for win by stoppage. Move onto the next round if you win. If only one nation is left standing at any point before the final then fight it out for the winner.
8 Fighters from each nation, the tournament spread accross 2 nights if needs be.
The champion gets an individual prize and the team with the most points gets a team prize to share.
Would be great!

if doing it that way id make the 8 yanks and then 8 brits fight it out seperately and then put the 2 tournament winners face each other in the grand final over 6 rounds instead of the norm .

One format could be fighters from 8 different countires England, Scotland, Wales Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland plus three others for example..
Any team format in a knockout competition gets very confusing (people from the same country would more than likely end up facing each other)
