    How is this SMW Tournament gonna work with 6 guys?

    From what I understand, we got:

    Taylor vs Abraham

    Dirrell vs Froch

    Ward vs Kessler

    Three fights. Winners face off. Winner of that goes to the finals.

    Someone gets a free ride to the finals after only one fight. How is that going to work?

    I think the winner of Ward-Kessler should go to the finals. That's a tough as$ fight for both of them.

    But I mean than one person will have to sit around and be innactive while the other is fighting.

    They should have gotten 2 more dudes for this tournament.

    Round robin style. Meaning a guy can lose and still win the tourney.

      Please explain that too me more. I remember playing in round robins in baseball but I'm having a hard time applying that to this tournament. So the losers are going to fight each other?

      Dios mio this tournament is going to take forever.

        It would make more sense if it was 8 fighters, so they could do a quarter final too.

        Anyway, there are 3 fights before the actual semis and finals. Opponents were chosen at random for each other I think.

        So Direll fights Froch first right? No matter what win or lose, he then faces Arthur Abraham next. Ya get it?

          you have a round robin with each fighter fighting 3 times. At the end up the round, top 4 are chosen based on points. Those four fight once and winners face off in the final
