How does the 5 v 5 concept work?
Frank Warren (Queensberry) and Eddie Hearn (Matchroom) have handpicked five fighters each to face off against each other. The chosen weight classes include featherweight, middleweight, light-heavyweight, and heavyweight, resulting in two matches. Scoring will be based on the following system: a decision win earns one point, a KO/TKO win earns two points, and a draw yields zero points. Additionally, the captain’s scores will be doubled.
