    Abraham, Froch, Taylor, Kessler in Showtime Shocker

    A few weeks back, I reported that Showtime was very interested in putting together a super middleweight tournament with the biggest names at the weight. Over the last few days, BoxingScene.com has spoken with numbers high-level sources who are close to the situation and it appears that Showtime is going to move forward with the super middleweight tournament.

          They really should have one of these tournaments every few years in each weight class. last time something like this went down was in 2001 during the middleweight tournament.

            oh man this is awesome news, SMW is a stacked division - AA, kess, froch, taylor, bute, bika, miranda, ward and andrade are all top fighters

            iv been a big fan of mikkel for a long time and now it finally looks as though he will be able to prove that he is the best SMW. even better is this so called agreement with palle which will allow kess to participate. AA is the only guy who can compete with mikkel and even then i see mikkel outworking him.

            WAAARRRRR MIKKKEELLLLL!!!!!

              just what the division needs.

              I fancy Kessler to come out on top.

                Holy ****!!!! I love Showtime for this!!!

                Tournaments are epic. There hasn't been a proper tournament since the Don King Middleweight tournament of 2000/01.


                But Taylor Vs Abraham???

                I'm not in the mood for seeing Jermain fall again...

                Oh well...let the games begin...

                  That's what I thought of too. **** watchin 4 belts float around each division. Have the last man standin of a tournament rep the division as the cat who runs ****.

                    That's a very impressive list of very exciting fights. If it all goes through, props to Showtime for doing this.
