What is the appeal of "Prizefighter" ?

[Silkeyjoe]

Personally none & I think most knowledgeable fans don't either.

It's essentially an amateur format that can be exciting due to the format & bonuses on offer for a knockout. It gives a a decent payday to the winner & not bad change to the rest but it's nothing to get to excited about really, just a bit of fun.

I think it says a lot for this when 'Ordinary' Harrison has won it twice!

Exactly as he said. It attracts guys who only want action and 100s of punches thrown and in my opinion dont really understand the sweet science. Its good for fighters as it gives them a chance to get a bit of exposure and can lead to title shots etc.

Prizefighter is fun but should not be taken too seriously and no way should the winner get a European title shot off the back of it like Audley did.
