What do you mean as Mike said! I said that also, it's up to the promoter.
"Novice" is a sliiiiightly different story, if a comp is called Novice, people like Joni will not compete but people like Robbo have before. Call it intermediate though, and every c**t with decent strength and/or low confidence in his abilities will join.
I was just talking of first-timers sort of thing though, don't mean to offend any promoters or make them seem like c**ts.
edit: I quite like the weight category and the AM/PRO system in America, and in general things in England are fine imo. Except Robbo, he is injured.
