Prize Boxing Promotions will host a four-man heavyweight tourna-ment at the Dolmen Hotel tomorrow evening with the winner claiming the title belt and a cheque for €1,000.

The tournament promoters said in a statement that Santons Rossi, Mark Cutajar, Josef Hazzuri and Michael Carter will be involved in the boxing competition.

Apart from the title belt at stake, the top man on the night will also earn a contract with a renowned promoter of the sport and the opportunity to box on professional terms in future.

This kind of boxing competition is somewhat new for Malta but has proved a big hit in Britain and the United States with the prota-gonists being hailed as the ultimate fighters.

Each bout tomorrow will consist of three three-minute rounds and the tournament has a knock-out style format. The organisers said two other fighters will be on stand-by in case one of the boxers gets injured during the tournament and has to be replaced.

There will also be a ringside professional sports doctor, two paramedics and a response team on standby.

Tomorrow, the card will also feature a series of other bouts with round duration varying between two and four minutes.
