    What do we think about this news? I think he would struggle big time against Groves & probably Skoglund.

    I do like the idea of super series tournament but the super middleweight one needs a few more big names, Cruiserweight looks like it's shaping up very well.

    That's a hard ask for Jaime imo, does this mean Jaime v rocky isn't happening?

    I was thinking the same thing. Maybe rocky will join it?

    Fielding fight is off. Can't See why they went thru purse bid and talk of fielding surely they knew this was a option

    The Fielding fight was a good fight. This is going to be a step too far for Cox I think. SMW not looking as good as the CW one, but Coxy and Skog-meister are at worst 'interesting' additions

    Yeah it was a good fight and really Cox should of earnt his place the winner entering the super series but it's all about the money not worth the risk financially him losing

    Nah, at best they're 'good' additions as undefeated prospects. But at worst I'd say they're interesting additions given that they're unproven. Maybe I'm being optimistic

    Not seen a lot of jamie cox hears a few say he decent then a few say he's only domestic. but he has nothing lose all gain he will be rank outsider but it's good experience exposure and decent money and let's him see level he at and Least fighting good not over the hill opponents s or bums and passing them off as Ppv

    Does anyone no what channel these fights be on ?

    The cruserweight tournament looks Class Think they only need one more should ask bellew hahaha not a chance he get involved only looking for the moneeeeeeeey these days

    A step too far surely for Cox- admire his ambition however.

    Quarter final fodder.

    who is confirmed for this now? Would like to see Degale and Smith but looks like there struggling to get participants if Cox and Skogland are confirmed. No doubt CEJ is too busy defending his prestigious IBO belt.

    Lewis Taylor was outboxing Cox. Don't let the biased commentary fool you, Cox only looks good if you stand there and trade with him..

    Cox doesn't have a chance

    If we could get Smith and CEJ involved in this tournament then it really would start to get interesting, maybe that's being optimistic. Degale can't make it due to his shoulder surgery.

    I get the feeling Hearn wouldn't allow Smith or Degale to join this tournament as he would strictly only want those guys to fight in house on his PPV. Jamie Cox is different as he doesn't really have anything to lose and could make a name for himself if he does well.
