      more facts to back up my claim that boxing is becomeing a rigged state like the wwf
      Why is it so rediculous? And why are you assuming its rigged?

      Some of the biggest names have signed on to endorse this thing.

      Angelo Dundee
      Arturo Gatti
      Kostya Tszyu
      Lennox Lewis
      George Foreman

      etc etc etc.

      Any exciting format and tourney style can only be good for boxing.

      No more boring 12 round stinkfests.

        boxing at one time was untill no man could go no more then it became 45 rounds then 20 rounds then 15 rounds now its 12 ... some are even 10 rounds

        now we're talking 4 round pro bouts ... think this says something about our attention span and fitness level now adays ...when professional fighters and the fans only wanna watch for 4 rounds a fight

            If yer fighting 3 men in one night dont you think there should be a few less rounds to the fights? I think the increased intensity of the fights(5 million dollars winners purse is a huge motivator)will be taxing of anyones stamina. Imagine having to go 4 hard rounds with a Samuel Peter that knows he only has to go 4 rounds. Then after that having to do the same against McCall?
            It will just be that much more exciting.

            The finalists will have to fight 3x4round fights. Totalling 12 rounds the same as a normal championship fight.

            Boxing is changing. Its not a bad thing. 12 round snooze decisions are boring and turn fans away from the sport. Id rather see 4 round intense fights and a fighter beat 3 guys in one night instead of waiting 6 months for a fighter to fight and having it go to a draw.

                this is what K1 did with KickBoxing and look how successful that is!..
                even though the other promoters in Boxing don't want events like this to happen, if it does, it will be great and could be a start to a new better era in Boxing!!!............forget the corruption, the dogdy decisions, the mandatory nobodies, sanctioning fees, etc, etc, etc............

                this is 4 rounds, go and KO your opponent or you are out!

                      Im excited aswell. I bought my ticket yesterday. How much was your ticket? Mine was 350 for a platinum seat. I would have loved to have been in the VIP area but I cant afford 1000 bucks.
