This season will obviously be a bit different. The fighters in most cases are a lot more expierienced. The let down of some of this fighters is that Lots of them are coming out of retirement for this show, some fighters havnt fought in 2,3,4 years!

The Favourites from my Knowledge would be as follows(if i had to pick the final 4):

Michael Clark ( charismatic, good looking experienced boxer)

Ebo Elder (scary, experienced fighter, has nothing to lose)

Stephen Forbes ( very experienced, has faced very tough opposition)

Michael Stewart ( Most experienced, very talented boxer)

and a fighter i wouldnt forget about is the 4 year rusty Gary Balletto, Hes a very powerful hitter, lets see if he can shake off the rust.
