Scott. Dangerous as he is strong and aggressive - maybe more mouth and trousers at this stage..
Dunstan. Only ever beaten by World Champions in Mayfield and Thompson.Inactive but looking great in the gym.Sowt London!
Corbett. Was decent, but seen way better days.
Krence. Tidy Boxer but no power - maybe the rigjt format for him? Box and move?
Keaton. Hungry and tough.
Steeds. Lacks the strength,imo
Francis. Good fighter..very good, but division down..maybe 2 divisions down!
Simpson. Nice tidy fighter - but not at this weight, may be an outside threat.

My T Sharp - Dunstan :TU:

Would be Francis but I don't think this format suits him. Hopefully Dunstan has the stamina.

I'm going to say either Steeds or Francis even though Steeds aint that good.

Corbett has had one fight since 2001.

Is this an eliminator for the British title.

All of these fighters are at the tail end of their career and very experienced over the longer distance.
The competition is more suited to the good amateurs, it is very much a sprint, it is difficult to see who will adapt best, got some great pedigree there tho.
I'm gonna take a punt at Dunstan

I agree with you mate but at 40 do you think he will still have it in the tank to last the course these prizefighter comps are at a fast pace.

Because he has been out of the ring for way too long and was never that good to begin with..

Althought he did beat one of my fellow South London bad boys in Chris Okoh!

Surprised so many pick Francis, didn't he just scrape by Joey Vegas?
