In boxing monthly today there was an advert for prizefighter Super bantam weights May 29th? Anyone know who is in it?

unfortnatly esham pickering is in it

Who else? Where did you find he in it?

Super bantamweight isn't that strong. You could see fighters moving up or down for the tournament. I will hazard a guess and say Matthew Marsh might be in it.

Hope Craig Lyon is in it, he would do really well

Wonder will Martin Power [LondonIrish] be interested in this? Would have a great chance against any domestic Super Bantamweight.

so thats why he backed out of fighting Paulie Hyland!!! 8)

Cant see him fighting in this, think he is being lined up for a title shot down at Superfly.

Scott Quigg would win this

not if Carl Frampton was in it he wouldnt!

Havnt seen Frampton heard hes very good tho

Cant see it happening on that date.......
Sky are showing Sykes vs O'Hara on the 28th of may and ricky hatton is having a show on the 29th with Scott Quigg on it.....

Think Boxing Monthly may of got a date wrong

Don't think matchroom get date wrong! Scott quigg fight not on tv!

i heard ricky owen also not 100% sure though

PBF is at 2 in the morning......& Kevin Mitchell is a world title fight......
Both fights are going to pull in huge viewers,
Cant see a hell of a lot watching a prizefighter, the novelty of the whole thing is starting to wear off and its not as appealing as it once was..

I bet it does better than your average FFN.Sky hammer the promotion and Herbie is in it.As for Quigg,nobody has ever said it will be on T.V.Hatton has run a few non-t.v shows as well.Its more a case of a homecoming for boxing in Bury after it was banned in the nineties

Is on May 29th Esham Pickering also confirmed this on his face book page.

super bantamweights get british title shots quicker as less fighters , munroe will vacate european now that hes on world stage so i reckon jason booth will go for the euro , meaning british will be vacant , surely that means the prizefighter winner will be guaranteed a shot at the british title , that would seem a good bit of motivation for any none title holding brit in the weight division to have a crack at this , it could end up an excellent prizefighter indeed.

quigg would ko frampton at this stage imo

they should get the cuban based in ireland to go in it, then there would only be 1 winner

Not at any stage I assure you - Frampton would have put him to sleep before he turned pro never mind now.

we'll have to agree to disagree then quigg didn't need no amatuer experience and he would still do frampton inside the distance

So what are you basing your prediction on exactly? I'm guessing it's because Quigg is a big puncher but you know jack about Frampton, apart from looking at his record so that constitutes a Quigg KO.
