      At first I thought this tournament was set up for failura but the thing is shaping up very nice with top fighters.

      I'm watching this tournament for sure.

        And is it Perez instead of Glowacki?

        No benevidez or Eubanks = zero interest in the super middle tourny
        Brant is an undefeated MW prospect, trained under Derrick James, and gymmate with Errol Spence Jr. and Jermell Charlo, the dude is surrounded with top class training.

        Never seen him fight so I can't tell if he's the goods or is just hype.

        BTW: I'm on the hypewagon of Benavidez too, I think the kid is gonna be the boggeyman of the 168's but as far as I know he might get a fight for the WBC title next considering Smith abandoned that Dirrel title fight.

          Damn, was really wanting Glowacki as the final dude. Kalenga and Makabu applied as well I believe, so I wonder why Perez got the nod

            Because of Eddie Hearn and the UK market which is the 2nd biggest in the world. Perez is signed with Hearn and he will fight on Sky Sports in the UK. Much bigger audience than somewhere in Eastern Europe. Plus Sky Sports offers additionally money to the fighters.

              Well I'll be damned, they actually look on the verge of pulling this whole thing off.

              Let's see what the matchups end up being.

                I thought Brant was looking likely for Saunders at middleweight !

                Can Mike Perez make cruiser ? Dude started to resemble Solis lately.

                  Mike Perez definitely had weight to lose judging by his body shape in his prior heavyweight fights. I'm rooting for him, dude was talented and had promise, before the Magomed fight

                    Perez will be fine he's looking great at the moment. Look up his weigh in for his last fight there's a comparison pic. I'd post it here but I've got no idea how to sorry

                      NSB has links to other boxing sites blocked. but I found the pic at world boxing news ....Perez is looking to be in great shape.
