    Default The Super Six and it's wider possibilities.

    There has been a fair share of praise and criticism over the Super Six tournament.
    The judging and reffing has been pretty much on par with the norm in professional boxing.

    The big question I would like to pose is would you like to see it on other weight classes? and if so which ones? if not, what would you like to see changed about the way the tournament works? Would you like to make sure a tourney like this never happens again?

    For me personally I want to see good fights, at the end of the day if someone unifies some alphabet straps or becomes a lineal champ thats a bonus.

    I think the tourney format would be perfect for a division like Light Welter where there is tons of talent, but not a clear champ.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I think this tournament is awesome for the sport and it does make good fights which we might otherwise not have seen and yeah i'd love to see it in light welter and welterweight where the divison is just stacked with great fighters yet the figths dont seem to be happening! Also does anyone think it would be good at light heavy? Dawson, Pascal, Cloud heck even whack Johnson in there! The whole super six is aces in my books keep em coming!

    I think the whole concept of the Super Six is great, and in a division like light-welter where there are some top fighters it would guarentee great fights - I think thats all any of us want to see. I think light-welter and welterweight would make great tourneys, maybe even a lightweight one. I think its a great idea that should be used in other divisions. Just as long as the idea isn't beaten to death like they've done with prizefighter and we don't see these tournemants cropping up all over the place.

    I love the Super six, i think it's great for the sport. It would be great at 140 lbs. It's great seeing the best fighters in the division going at it. If they can continue to be fair with the fight locations, then i think it will be a good thing. I'm a little curuios to see if Green will get a home town fight in his next bout.

    If it throws the best of the best in the mix together it's all good.

    I think the best thing that could happen would be if a loss didn't mean the end of the world for some fighters. That would encourage fighters to seek out the best opponents. Too much emphasis placed on having an unbeaten record.

    Edit: I'm talking in Boxing in general, not in the super six
