New Heavyweight K.o Tournament

[telboy66]

Thanks for the rep Yvonne,Going on record only for experience Kenna should skate it but there are a couple of good boys in there I think a lot will depend on the draw I can see david Dolan & possiblyPaul butlin doing well.How will the lads with less experience handle the pressure of the York Hall it really does get jumping in there & I hear it's a sellout I can't wait

Billy Bessey just told me that the draw (names out of a hat) is taking place on Soccer A.M on a week on Saturday.

Aright they mate.Good for you to show us the records on each fighters in the tournament.I watched SoccerAM this morning when Barry Hearn and crew where discussing the the tournament in futher detail to the viewers.He mensioned that if this new U.K Heavyweight devision goes well then he's planning on doing the same tournament next year but including Middleweight too.He said he'd like to do all four original wight divisions e.g Featherwight,Welterweight,Middleweight as well as the Heavyweight.Should be good a prospect to look forward to.Anyhow talking about the Heavyweight contest....i reckon Dolan will win it as he is from the same area as me (Northeast)and he's 3/1 at the bookmakers to win.What do you reckon about the other weights being involed in the future,do you think it'll catch on?

Yvonne, I watched Soccer AM too and I'm looking forward to this, should be a good night next Friday

[yvonne]

No problem mate!Im having a bet on Dolan at the bookmakers tomorrow.I wish i could be there like but i'll be watching it on t.v instead and cheering me local man!Should be an awesome atmosphere in the famous YORK HALL as usual!
