What are your thoughts and predictions?
Complete lineup:
http://boxrec.com/show_display.php?show_id=680974
James "Lights Out" Toney (75-8-3)
Brian "The Beast" Minto (37-6)
Jason Gavern (23-15-4)
Damien Wills (31-3-1)
Tom Little (3-1)
Larry "War Machine" Olubamiwo (10-3)
Matt Legg (6-1)
Michael Sprott (37-21)
UK spare: Ian Lewison (8-2-1)
It's a very good line up, no doubt about that. I reckon Toney gasses himself getting a win in the first round. And then just needs to be pushed over in the second fight as he is so exhausted. Larry Olubamiwo looking for redemption after the drugs ban, I wonder what he'll look like without the use of steroids? Personally I reckon Sam Sexton wins, although I dislike him as a fighter. Wonder who the eighth fighter will be?
I thought Larry was banned for years n years?Quote:

What a waste...
Why not a Toney/Minto 12 round main event backed up with Sexton/Olubamiwo over 10, and the rest in supporting six rounders?
A proper nights boxing, without an exhibition bout (let alone seven) in sight.
Sam Sexton has pulled out due to an injory.
That leaves six, they'll need to find two more.
Shouldn't we be glad to get as few of rounds as possible from this lot? LolQuote:

Could that be Hearn offering him a fight if this falls through? Maybe Hennesey offering him a fight with Hughie Fury?
Good point!Quote:

Michael Sprott and Ian Lewison are in (Lewison's fight with McDermott is off).
Sam Sexton and Sherman Williams are out.
Not a great line-up and to be honest prizefighter has gone past it's sell by date
I reckon Prizefighter is still a feather in the cap of younger fighters, and could boost their profile, but when it's a bunch of guys who are either really old or novices, it doesn't offer much. Put Joshua in there and let him knock em all out.Quote:
