I think in the end 154 fighters checked in and competed, not a bad turn out at all. The novice and cadet sections were quite low in numbers but the open sections were huge, back to the old days at Crystal Palace since those kind of numbers were last seen.
There were some excellent fights, the best for me was the mens LW final, a cracker of a fight, extremely high paced and full of action, Leon Lundregan took the decision after 3 hard rounds against Daniel Redondo of Spain.
If I can find footage of that I will post it.

I saw Darren Chan took 3rd but split his shin open! Yeow! yeah, it looked to me like it might need stitches, but he managed a drink or three in the bar after!!  |
