    Beat me to it @Greenbeanz.

    Ring great James Toney named in Prizefighter line-up for November at York Hall | Sky Sports

    It would appear Former Commonwealth Champion Sam Sexton & Sherman 'Tank' Williams have also signed up to compete.

    What's the use of this tournament if it won't be to showcase young and up coming talent? All of these guys have passed their prime many, many moons ago. Some of them never had primes. Some of these guys never really was. I mean, what are we doing?!!?

    Replace these guys, Sexton, Toney and Williams, with Helenius, Jennings and Scott.
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    Not a big fan of these 4 round tourneys and especially for all of these seasoned guys. Slower starters of more careful guys almost enter the ring down 2.

    They are all prizefighters. They can enter or abstain. It does seem a little pointless for the older guys but for others it is an opportunity. Will not suit everyone's style but it has led to big fights for many previous participants. Don't really know what Sam Sexton possibly dumping Toney on his arse will prove. Toney is past his ripening date ? Sam is more than a busy well used sparring partner? The US is now below the UK in quality heavyweights? I think Eric's right it's just entertainment.

    If this is a 4 round format the sad thing is Toney could win the thing and maybe even run away with it. Probably get a shot at Wlad for doing so or maybe Vitali. That would be a nice 7 figure payday to end his career on.

    3 rounds.

    The winner and runner up will have to have fought 3 times.

    Toney is not fit enough and nor is he busy enough to do anything. Id be surprised if he wins his first match. Its basically the amateur format but not scoring punches but the busier man will win.

    Yes this format seems like it will be hard for Toney as he doesn't throw many punches or get busy fast enough.

    Toney just there to check out some of the UK's buffets. He ain't winning. I doubt he even goes through it
