Sauerland: Super Six II in the works.

[Joe2608]

It would be good at 140lbs imo. But then again, should the Super Six be used for lesser divisions to ****e it up a bit (168lbs was not anything special until this happened) or should it be used for loaded divisions with a lot of talent (140lbs). Keep in mind the fighters in the loaded divisions usually end up fighting each other at some point. Maybe this Super Six could inject a bit of life and interest into Cruiserweight?

Who knows.

Aw crap, not CW. I have no interest in anyone there except Cunningham, and Adamek left for HW.

They need to make it at LHW, which sorely needs ****ing up despite the names around that division.

The Super-six concept is definitely needed in more divisions of boxing, but Cruiserweight would not have been high on my choices. Just not big enough attractions.

140 is an obvious choice everybody would love to see, but 147 and 126 and below could make for intrigeing match-ups.

I'd love to see a Bantamweight tourny.

I love it

How does this look

1. Marco Huck- WBO Champion- GER
2. Steve Cuningham/Matt Godfrey (Winner of March 19 Fight)-IBF Champ-USA
3. Troy Ross- Contender Champion- CAN
4. Guillermo Jones- WBA Champion- COL
5. Dennis Lebedev- RUS/ Griogory Drzod
6. Francisco Palacios/B.J Flores

looks pretty good to me...

I hope ARD does it instead of Showtime, but with SKY picking it up as well so we have English commentary.

The current Super Six is unfair because Ward has all his fights at home with crooked refs like Jack Reiss who let him foul as much as he wants (hold & hit, hit on the break, and deliberately headbutt).

i doubt sky will pick it up unless there is a brit in it (Enzo lol) and/or get offered it dirt cheap, and even then they might not do it. They didnt pick up the SMW tourny and Froch is in it.

I belive that 'tournaments' are the future of boxing. Having the best 4/5/6 boxers from each division fight each other and to see who is the best in that division. The SUper 6 Boxing Classic has been very god so far, lets hope it continues to be.

Could very well be. At least the format garners namerecognition and a high-profile champion.

[BattlingNelson]

As much as I am a fan of the tourney style, Cruiserweight?

C'mon.

Still it's better than not having a tournament IMO.

Who knows.

168 was actually one of the 2 most deep and talented divisions in boxing. So in that respect CW is definetely a step down.

[KittenFlaps]

True. It's just that there are a lot of great fighters in other divisions. This seems like the least interesting choice.

[Sloth]

I don't care what division it is in. A tourney is a tourney, and I love myself some tourney. Who doesn't? At least in America, that's what everyone loves.
