Would you say the Super 6 has been a bust or a success so far ?

    Of course, I want the fighters to make money,but, the fights that have been held Stateside have had dismal fan turnouts.

    That's becuz us fans are lame. You know they made a butt load in Europe.

    Tons of people there.

    I don't know the US has so many ***** no-going fans.

      Besides the Froch-Dirrell decision (which was close either way), there hasn't been any hometown controversy.

      I voted solid. All the matchups are fantastic in terms of having the top guys fight each other. The fights themselves could have been better but i though the action picked up in the second stage.

      The N.American media has been ignoring this...kinda expected it, but the promoters should have done a better job of selling this tournament. Its incredible how downright LAZY boxing promoters are, if it weren't for Showtime and HBO gifting them and their fighters massive paydays then they would be out of a job.

          Besides Pac/Mayweather.(Which hasn't even happened) What even besides the Super Six has garnered more attention in boxing?

          That's what I thought for the haters out there.

              you do realize Dirrell and ward are unknown in the US.

              Really if the US has so many ***** no-going fans, then how come Cotto can sell out Madison square garden. how come Pacquaio and floyd can fill up seats in the US. **** even Margarito vs shane broke records in the staple center.

                It has been a great accomplishment because it still exists in almost its original timeframe and structure. Some fights have been worth watching and others have been duds, but the fact that it still exists is quite an accomplishments.

                  It's been great. It's bringing attention to the SMW division, and it's making great fights. There's been a lot of drama as well. Just think of all the attention it's gotten. Nothing against you at all, but this thread didn't need to be made. If people don't support this tournament, that's just ******.

                    Super six is awesome. Boxing needed this. I just didn't agree with the Taylor, Green substitution. They should of picked someone else. Bute would of been interesting.

                      it's been solid, unexpected events and outcomes, decent fights, at least half of them so far. there is room for more but it's not over yet, so, i'm saying it's been good so far.


                      and as far as i'm concerned, this is how boxers should be going about their business, fighting all the top dudes in the division.......... mad props to the tourney.
