    Is this tournament going to be in the UK? Taylor might go somewhere but Flanagan? Does anybody really think he would go to a bayou? All alone with the Rougarou? Nice idea, A side BS time.

      Could happen. Ivan literally throws no jabs and against higher lever competition it could be an issue.

        Flanagan cant draw ****, crowd emptying after the Battle of the Liams was embarrasing, Warren wouldnt have had him enter if he could

          Flanagan banked on his unexpected knockout win on Magdaleno, but he's actually a B- class fighter. Prograis will annihilate him once and for all.

              Hooker will be fighting cans on DAZN for the foreseeable future anyway (in true Eddie Hearn fashion)

              We already know Ramirez wants nothing to do with Regis.

              S/o to Prograis and Taylor. One of them is on the way to stardom. I wouldn't mind an upset though lol makes things interesting
              The winner of the tournament would be WBA/IBF champion with the WBC owed to them if Ramirez/Top Rank want to run.

              Hooker is behind a paywall (with a belt that doesn't interact with the other three organizations), so he's alright for now, but Ramirez is stuck.

                  So the bracket would be:

                  Taylor/Martin
                  Baranchyk/Yigit


                  Prograis/Flanagan
                  Relikh/Troyanovsky

                    The fights will happen but this tourney does not approach the quality of the boxers involved in WBSS at the lower weight... this looks more like setups...

                      Oh sheeit. If Turbo performs like he did vs Hooker he's done for in 4 or 5 rounds. The real Turbo that we saw in the final round vs Hooker might do a bit better.
