    I think things change quick in boxing & a guy could legit go from top guy to done during the round robin period as I believe Jermain Taylor more or less did in the 168 Super Six tournament. An L in boxing isn't like an L in most other sports. You are the only one getting your ass kicked & you are literally getting your ass kicked when you catch a L in boxing.

    As for a tournament at 147 I think there are so many unknowns that need to be answered I'm not sure about a lot of things right now so idk who'd win. How much does Manny have left? How good is Spence realllllly? How good is Thurman? How good is Brook? Does Garcia give a f#ck about being great? Can Crawford take a punch? I'm split on who I think has the potential to win, but I guess I gotta favor Manny or Thurman for what they've done so far, but I think Spence, Crawford & Brook all have some potential that they just haven't had to show yet or got the resume thats THAT good right now. Garcia would be a bit of a sleeper that I think is capable, but I feel he lacks dedication to boxing.
    Thank you 8 only, Have Garcia, Brook, Thurmon, Spence, Broner, Crawford, Porter, Vargas, and i guess Bradley. Pac don't need to be in this tourney , let him fight Chicken Floyd, Canelo, GGG, AND OR Marquez

        sorry forgot to reply directly to you in above post

          A peak Manny would clean up that tournament, but at this stage, it would be close between Manny, Spence and Thurman.

            welterweight is so talented, i wish they could throw together a super 6, even if it didn't have everyone in it but still it'd be super interesting.

              Spence wouldn't make 147, I vote Pac but it's a toss up between 3 names, Pac, Crawford and Thurman.

                With VADA or USADA testing either Spence or Thurman to win and I lean towards Spence. Without testing #48 has a great shot at winning. Crawford I think would do the worst since he wouldn't carry a size advantage and the competition is way stiffer than he's use to. Danny Garcia I think would do better than expected. Old man Floyd beats the winner by UD coming off a 2 year lay off lol.

                  I voted Spence will win it. He is the best welterweight in the world in my opinion. Put Mayweather in the tournament and I still think Spence would win it.I think it's a strange tournament that includes Crawford but leaves out Brook, Bradley and Vargas. Crawford should defeat a top 10 world rated welterweight before he enters such a tournament. I am not saying Crawford isn't damn good but he is unproven at welterweight. Seven pounds can make a difference and I think it's unfair to put Crawford in and leave welterweight champions out. But it's your tournament and still an interesting thread.

                      How is it that you picked Spence to win the welterweight tournament, but now you consider him a hypejob?
