Good point
Maybe open it up to 8
DeMarco
Murray
Reyes
Moses
The problem with 8 is it becomes like Lightweight Lightning, which never carried through past the first round really apart from Katsidis & Escobedo fighting. I think the round-robin is the best idea as it doesn't lead to a one loss & you're out risk in the same way as an elimination tournament does. Hence, you get a better standard of fighters who are willing to risk more, knowing that they've got more than one chance.
Could work on a similar points system where 2 drop out after the 1st rd
Lightweight Lightning failed because Barrios & Casa pulled out & the fighters weren't locked in to a tournament type scenario
