The cruiserweight final of the first season of the World Boxing Super Series had been formally announced this week, featuring the two top 200-pounders in the worldy: unified Super WBA / IBF champion Murat Gassiev (26-0, 19 KOs) of Russia and WBC / WBO champion Olexander Usyk (14-0, 11 KOs) from Ukraine.

I thought The Monster was confirmed???

Hopefully some American tv network will pick up these tournaments and air them over here.

As I said in the other thread, I had heard rumors of Chudinov in the next WBSS, which means it will be 168 again unless he's moving up or down to participate (which is certainly possible)

I don't like the final being in Russia this year, and I don't like it being there next year, either. Germany, London and New York are far more suitable venues.

Inoue name is not in list? can any one please tell?

Definitely, I agree. Tired of Russia, tired of *****, tired of hooligans.

This caught me by surprise. I guess I thought they would be doing a second Cruiserweight tournament. A tournament for any of those three divisions must have been kept under wraps pretty well or they haven't been able to secure many big names for it.

I can't see 168Lb again, so I see 160 or 175 being announced. As for Russia I gotta agree with Germany, UK & USA being strong venue's, although there's no reason why Africa, Asia & Australasia shouldn't get involved. It is after all a global tournament.

It's because the article is only referring to Russian fighters who are involved. Inoue is definitely in the bantamweight tourney, along with the rest of the divisions top 4: Zolani Tete, Ryan Burnett and Emmanuel Rodriguez.
