Posted on | June 7, 2011 | No Comments

All tickets for tonight’s York Hall showdown have gone

Boxing fans have snapped up all the tickets for tonight’s Eddie Hearn promoted Prizefighter Welterweights II show at York Hall, Bethnal Green – the final show of the series is a complete sell-out.

The 19^th edition of Matchroom Sport’s eight-man, one night tournament sees an all-star cast of fighters line-up to claim the £32,000 winner’s cheque, with the action live on Sky Sports 2 and HD2 from 8pm.

Fans with tickets for the night should get there early to get a seat, with doors opening at 6.30pm.

The opening quarter-final of the night sees former British champion Kevin McIntyre face unbeaten Essex man John-Wayne Hibbert. The winner of that bout will take on either former WBC World champ Junior Witter or Aylesbury’s Nathan Graham in the first semi-final.

Witter’s old foe Colin Lynes is in the third quarter-final, and the Prizefighter Lightweight runner-up takes on unbeaten Cheshunt fighter Bobby Gladman. The winner of that bout will reach the second semi-final against fancied Moroccan-born Islington boxer Yassine El Maachi and Bermondsey-based Irishman Peter McDonagh.
