I Think The Super Six Has Been Rubbish In All Honesty.

[ICB]

similar thing said another thread earlier today. format and timescale doomed it to failure if you ask me


who's that in your avatar ICB ??

Gary Olsen and Brian Bovell, a friend of mine. Told me to check out this program called "Prospects". Its basically about two wideboy London geezer's trying to keep there head above water. Its set in the 80's and its set in the Isle Of Dogs, pretty good show.

Thought it looked 80s

At first glance with it being so small I thought it was Benny Green and Alan Humphreys from Grange Hill \ Tucker's Luck.

But you won't remember them two will you.....

Afraid not mate LOL, but you should for certain check it out. The 1st episode is floating about somewhere.

they should have done it all in one night.

Either the prize fighter format, each fight is 3 rounds long.

OR

all six fighters in the ring at once, last man standing.

OR

A pie eating contest.

The tournament has been fine, think about Andre Ward. They stepped up and he took a chance and now he is the top guy in the tournament when he started out the bottom guy in the tournament. It's given us 6 fights all pitting top 10 guys in the division.

I think it was a great idea and effort. In this sport anything can happen and not always in our favor but hey that's boxing. This tourny is a better gauge if who's the best that any of the stupid belts or pfp rating crap

[generalbulldog]

I actually like the tournament, we have had plenty of good fights in the tourney. It's better than them just avoiding each other.

aye it was the format that messed it up

americans know very little about how to make a tournament like this exciting,

they made it too complicated and its just turned rubbish

should of got an englishman to organise it

[killersheep]

First trial run, we learned a lot from this for better or worse. I think the sentiments that "It's better than them avoiding each other" and "it makes more sense than the belts and p4p rankings" are exactly right and show that this is a step in the right direction for boxing.

What seems to be more logical to me is a simple 8 man bracket. I understand the issue with one loss and you're out, but you could always qualify for the next tournament and give it another go.

A double elimination tournament with 8 fighters would have been about as long.
