    Super Series - Welterweight Division

    There are 3 undefeated welterweight champions, and it's a certainty that none of them are fighting each other by the end of this year. If Haymon/PBC/Showtime made a deal with Arum/Top Rank/ESPN to do a Welterweight Super Eight Series, what would you like to see as the match ups?

    Quater-finals

    (1) Errol Spence Jr. 25-0 (21 KOS) vs Manny Pacquiao 61-7 (39 KOS) for IBF belt.

    (2) Keith Thurman 29-0 (22 KOS) vs Yordenis Ugas 23-3 (11 KOS) for WBA belt.

    (3) Terence Crawford 34-0 (25 KOS) vs Danny Garcia 34-2 (20 KOS) for WBC belt.

    (4) Shawn Porter 30-2-1 (17 KOS) vs Egidijus Kavaliauskas 21-0 (17 KOS) for WBO belt.

    Semi-finals

    (1) IBF champion vs WBO champion

    (2) WBA champion vs WBC champion

    FINAL

    Unified IBF-WBO champion vs unified WBA-WBC champion

        Dream on. Some of these fights might happen not by way of a tournament.

          Sounds great and all but it’s nearly impossible to hold a tourney in a division filled with big names.

          112, 118, and 200 tournaments are easy to make because those are obscure weight divisions but the mainstream ones like 147, i dont think so.

            Apparently they were very close to getting 175 for this year, and Kathy Duva was the one who pulled the plug. Maybe this year we can get 175 and/or 147

            Would be good for the WBSS and good for boxing.

              The big name divisions are the ones where the tournaments make the most sense.

              147, 160, 175, and Heavyweight are all filled with good fights that aren't happening.
