ESB Classic Forum's Pound for Pound Tournament Semi Finals

I have decided to do a ESB Classic Forum Pound for Pound Tournament. I have included the 41 fighters ranked in people's top 10s when Rumsfeld did his 2011 survey.

For the sake of not clogging up the board, and making it a bit faster, I will be using multiple fights in a thread, with multiple options for people to vote. My vote will only count to break a tie. The draw is seeded according to Rumsfeld's results.

All matches are to be judged over 15 rounds at a neutral indoor venue in (for arguments sake) the mid 1970's.

I appreciate matches are mythical and potentially could lead to making a judgement over who wins a pound for pound between a 100lber and a 230lber. So use what ever (other) criteria is needed to make your personal judgement.

 

With the votes in so far, it could not be any tighter.

 

24 hours left to vote.

 

A few hours left to vote. Neither match has more than two votes in it...

 

I will put the final up in the next hour or so.

 

No, my vote will not count.
