    Showtime To Do Another Tourney at Bantamweight

    According to Steve Kim's twitter.

    twitter.com/stevemaxboxing

    Heard that Showtime is working on a 118-pound tourney, will have Mares, Darchinyan, Agbeko, Perez that will begin this fall #boxing

    The bad news.

    Montiel and Donaire, were asked to make it a 'Super Six'-type format, but Top Rank balked at entering 118-pd tourney
    Format.

    Format will be this( for now, what I'm told): Mares vs. Darchinyan and Perez-Agbeko. And winners will meet. More details to come
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Showtime has left HBO in the dust this year, HBO better pull their heads out their asses and make that 140 Tourney already.

      You can thank uncle Bob for not getting those two.

        Still a fantastic tournament to be honest.

        Mares - Darchinyan, and Perez added in the mix is mouthwatering.

          No doubt about it.

          HBO's boxing budget is about 3 times bigger and it seems they can't even keep up.

            Montiel and Donaire should leave Top Rank and join the tourney.

              Because they overpay the hell out of the guys they have.

                just goes to show how deep this division is when a bunch of the top names arent in and youve still got a great tourney. Mares-Darchinyan looks interesting

                  Donaire will have a short stay at Bantam. Maybe only against Montiel. Then he will hunt the big name of 122-126. Vasquez, Lopez, Rafa and Gamboa were the target.
