Prizefighter returns!

Bradley Pryce and Neil Sinclair head the bill for the next Prizefighter tournament, for light-middleweights

The eight men who will scrap it out at the home of boxing

Prizefighter returns later this month with the first ever light-middleweights competition. The event, which will be staged at the York Hall in Bethnal Green, east London, will be held on Friday, February 26. The eight-man line-up includes the usual mix of talented, undefeated prospects and former champions including xx-Commonwealth champion Bradley Pryce and former British belt holder Neil Sinclair. Eddie Hearn, Matchroom Sport's Managing Director, is expecting another hugely entertaining evening of Prizefighter boxing on February 26. "It's another stunning line up for Prizefighter as more and more champions want to be involved," he said. "We're back at the York Hall - the home of British boxing - where it will be a guaranteed sell out and a great atmosphere. "Once again it's a mix of former champions trying to reignite their careers and young guns looking to make a big name for themselves but, as always, there can only be only one winner." This will be the 10th Prizefighter event where four quarter-finals, two semi-finals and the final, each lasting a maximum of three rounds, take place in one thrilling evening. A successful night at Prizefighter can transform a boxer's career with many of the previous winners going on to fight for major titles. Tickets cost £30 and £50 and can be bought from Matchroom Sport on 01277 359900. Name: Prince Arron
