Another Prizefighter Saturday, who you got?

Getting a bit tired now in my view but this could be ok I guess, Choi must be favourite but he can take a round or two to get rolling which you can't
do in these.

Roberts has skills and James looks ok, Bailey likes a row, Glover and Jennings seem ok on there records only.

Coveney with a good draw has a squeak as well on his best form.

Any strong views on this one, or are we all a little PF'd out.

Lindsay should have gone in this. I see Troy James he looks ok Choi should win but you don't know. Think it be exciting one.

It all depends on the draw. On paper Choi, but if he is fighting last and in with a tough opponent, it could open up and someone like James could win it or Mickey Coveney.

I'm PF'd out Global but I'd be interested in seeing the odds for Rhys Roberts. The format should suit him and he's quick.

He would be second fav for me Ben behind Choi, if they miss each other it would make for a decent final, by that time Choi's engine should be running but
I like Roberts and feel he may be the one to trouble the favourite

Resse Roberts could be in the frame he has a good record up to date only one loss due to injuring his hand young and hungary (I don't think I've spelt his name right)

I expect this will be a sign of things to come from Sky, unless they can use some more of their budget.... with the prize insentive I don't think the outrageously handsome Eddie is going to have much problem signing up fighter to this.

I remember the days when Prizefighter was a bonus on a tuesday or wednesday and we would get a proper title fight on the Saturday. Now though, it seems Sky boxing is based around the Prizefighter.

Unless Eddie, Maloney and Hatton can get more fighters (and more dates for the latter two) then we will just be getting more and more prizefighter.

I don't think the line up is particulary inspiring, and it's only been a couple of weeks since the last one. I wouldn't say Sky/Matchroom are flogging a dead horse just yet, maybe just bitch slapping a horse dipping in and out of consciousness.

The novelty has well and truly worn off with Prizefighter.

One things for sure I'm not having a bet on it, doesn't matter who I back in Prizefighter they go out in the 1st round.

Mickey Coveney's pulled out of it after being cut in last fight.

Rhys Roberts looks the main threat to Choi. Anyone seen Troy James? No idea from his record how good he is.

Yeah Barrington (AKA Killer ) id imagine as he was close to originally getting into it and i see hes now been removed from his planned fight at clifton leisure center the night before .

Hes better than his record suggests to be honest but as much as id like him to win it , i cant see it - He will be the outside bet imo .

Have stumbled across this, anyone know if this true?

I'M NO JODIE BULLY

Sunday Mirror, Jul 13, 2003 | by NICK HENEGAN

IT'S a classic mystery involving a beautiful girl and a heartless villain.

Just who was the bully who made glamour model Jodie Marsh's life a misery at her private school?

Former classmates were quick to identify a suspect when the Essex Wives star said she started wearing her outrageous outfits in a quest for fame to "show her bullies I wasn't ugly and could be something".

And the name that came up was Eddie Hearn - son of top boxing promoter Barry Hearn. One ex-classmate claimed: "Eddie fits the bill all right. There was an 'in-crowd' who used to pick on Jodie."

Another added: "Eddie was part of a popular group. But I don't think he was popular, so much as a bully - and people were scared of him. He and Jodie didn't get on very well. She got a lot of sh** because she had a big nose. She wasn't very popular and definitely didn't enjoy school."

Friends of Jodie - a close rival to Jordan in the upfront glamour market - have also pointed the finger at Hearn, 24, who now runs the golf section of his father's multi-million-pound sports management and promotion empire and also manages champion golfer Greg Owen and rookie John E. Morgan.

But he firmly denies that he was the bully.

"All I can say is there is no truth in it," he insists. "I've got nothing to do with the matter, I don't know what you are talking about ."

Millionaire's daughter Jodie, 24, was educated at pounds 10,000-a- year Brentwood School in Essex, where famous old boys include Foreign Secretary Jack Straw and comedy star Griff Rhys-Jones. She has three A-levels and once dreamed of becoming a lawyer.

Jodie has said she was picked on after rejecting the advances of a boy - but has never named him. She said: "This boy was the ringleader of the year, incredibly rich and popular When he asked me out I said no because all I wanted to do was learn...and then the nightmare began.

"The bullying started when I was 11 and continued right through school. I was a bit of a boffin and got bullied for being clever. I was also bullied for my nose, which had a huge bump after I broke it playing hockey. Then I had a nose job and got bullied because of that."

Eddie's father Barry Hearn, who is chairman of Leyton Orient Football Club, made his name in the 1980s as manager of snooker legend Steve Davis. He then broke into boxing, promoting world title fights for Frank Bruno, Chris Eubank and Prince Naseem.

Asked if Eddie Hearn was her playground bully, Jodie smiled wryly and said: "No comment."
