    they can still make that fight just not part of the tournament put it on the undercard to dirrell/ward, that way people will show up at a neutral location like las vegas.

      They should just kick green out and have the final four. No point in having someone else come in, imo.
      I cosign. Green didn't fill the mold anyway.

          But this is ******ed.

          Whats the point of bringing him when he will have 0 points,likE GReen
          Yeah he does look a bit fleshy but its because hes old not over his natural weight, I seriously doubt he can lose 7 pounds safely. He'd have 2 points, Kessler beat Froch.

            Good idea thats perfect and I forgot that green wants to move up to 175.

              I agree that is the best way to go about it.

                and then what? Johnson vs Dirrell or Ward? Seems ****** and pointless. Johnson is 40 or 41. What would the point be even if johnson would some how win this tournament? Is he the new unified champ and young star at 168 pounds that's supposed to take over Calzaghe's spot? lol

                  Random. No way Johnson will make 168 and be effective there...

                  Just skip right to the semis, please. This is messy enough as it is already.
                  I agree they should've just moved straight to the semi-finals, but since they're moving ahead with a third group stage I don't have a problem at all with The Road Warrior subbing for Kessler. Better than Bika IMO. As long as Glen's not totally weight drained he does to Green what he did to Mack.

                  Would be a damn shame though if he was ineffective at 168 and lost to someone of Green's caliber.

                      How is glen johnson a better alternative than Bika? Bika is a solid fighter, he's ranked at 168 and the last time he lost at 168 pounds was to bute like 4 or 5 years ago. Bika was probably more deserving than Allen Green tbh
