I got the info from talking with Lou Dibella. I asked him if he could change 1 thing about boxing to make it better and he informed me of the round robin tourney. Dibella would not allow me to know the other promoters involved, but Dibella did say that if it did happen, it would be on PPV with a price tag reasonable enough for casual boxing fans to afford.
