The only reason I make him warm favourite - cause alot of them are in a similar situation, and Dunstan was better than then.

Some potential for knockouts I feel. What happened to Hobson? Dolan v Norton 2 will be good in June as well

Will Krence make Cruiser easy? I think Francis is a fool to be doing this... even if he goes on to win it - WTF is he doing at Cruiserweight.

Really tough to call, probably make Dunstan a luke warm favourite.

Nathan Clevery said that when he said Dean Francis in the flesh he looked like a heavyweight, not a light heavyweight.

I think Cleverly just meant that Dean Francis looked massive for a light heavy. :TU:

25 lbs is a big jump. Unless he was really flabby against Joey Vegas it's understandable.

It wasn't long ago he fought Oakey and looked really good, showing a tremendous engine.

That's exactly what I heard.

And unlike some of them he looks bang on the weight!

Francis too small and Scott - well - maybe a pie or two since we last saw him.

:D

what a shame, francis going from stopping oakey to this.

a bloated francis, vs big sluggers, in 3 round fights - doesn't look promising.

even against oakey, he didn't really get going till the 4th round.

sad. but i hope he wins it.

I don't know about this Prize Fighter.

Normally, you get 1 or 2 up and comers. This mostly seems to be blasts from the past. Sad to see former British and Euro champs and former world title challengers go home empty handed.

What's a FW fighter who won a British title by spectacular stopage doing in PF?

I don't think Francis looks like a heavyweight. I saw all his cruiser fights and he looks well stocky. Thought it looked like a good move when he went down and won Commonwealth and British titles.

Francis is a class above, he's seemed to have the more competitive action last few years than the others, but these are some big blokes he'll be in with, with limited time.
