Has there been any word on it. Eddie Hearn said something would be announced this week

Also said Froch-Groves undercard would be this week along with a new signing. Puts too much pressure on himself, only leaves people dissaponted when he doesn't reveal anything

I look forward to hear Eddie's announcements but it's always very disappointing when he flakes and doesn't announce anything

its getting announced Monday with Joshua headlining on the fight they have between semis and final!

Price wins that incredibly easily.

Price should enter the next Prizefighter. It'll suit him just like it suited Harrison.

I heard wach is in it!

I don't mind Prizefighter it builds fighters up and pushes them along for example from recent memory Foot, Ekundayo Gaynor, Jenkins and even Audley all did well and are going on to better things except Audley took a step too far he could have really built himself back up.

I'd pick Price to beat him over three rounds.

It would be a great way to get his career back on track. 3 solid wins and a nice little trophy.

Would he have stamina for it? U can't see him doing it!

If he doesn't have the stamina for Prizefighter then his career is in even more trouble than I think it is.

If Hearn sets it up for him then I don't see why he wouldn't.

Took a step too far?! Well he couldnt just win prizefighter forever and be taken seriously.

I don't disagree with you, I think it would suit Price too. If he were to enter a prizefighter, I would prefer to see a more competitive field than the one mentioned above.

He jumped in with top heavyweights.

Every fighter would jump on him not best way for his new plan back.

There is an "off" button, you know ?

Personally I'm really looking forward to it

I liek prizefighter especially for heavyweights presumably it will bhe a mediocre mix though Skelton,Rogan and Sexton are my favourites for inclusion.

Can add Rocky Fielding to that list as well, maybe Terry Flannigan although he could really do with some TV exposure

There's 20 shows a year on sky, each prizefighter takes away from the amount of live boxing there is available.

Stick Hughie Fury in

No it doesn't - each prize fighter gives 7 or 8 fights in one three hour show, and it usually makes for good viewing.

Reducing the annual quota of 20 live boxing shows down to 19 and filling the gap with a (for example) rugby game - that's what would take away from the amount of live boxing that's available.

These shows usually sell out and deliver good ratings for Sky. I love the prizefighters, fair enough not everybody does but that's life.

Slipped my mind exactly it's great for the fighters whatever your opinion on it.
