    Just saw a news that Sauerland is thinking about making this tournament with following boxers:
    Marco Huck
    Steve Cunningham
    Yoan Pablo Hernandez
    Enzo Macarinelli
    Krzysztof Włodarczyk
    Danny Green


    Dont know details but what is your opinion about this idea?

    edit. ye Cuba, he's Yoan, sorry i was copying names from site.
    Btw. in my opinion Enzo doesn't deserve to be in this tournament

    Great, some top fighters finally fighting each other.

    Also we will end up with 4 unified titles at the end (if Cunningham beats Ross).

    Huck - WBO
    Włodarczyk - WBC
    Cunningham - IBF (If he beats Ross)
    Green - IBO

    (Also its Yoan Pablo Hernandez not Juan)

    Good idea cause it's a great format, I'd prefer it in just about every other weight division though.

    Danny Green isnt a true CW, but LHW, who fights above the LHW limit. If he can handle 20 pounds heavier boxers, I will respect it.

    And yeah idea is good, but there would be the same problem what in SMW - the place of fight.

    Looks good, I have 1 suggestion:

    Get rid of Green and insert BJ Flores, to raise the talent level a bit.

    Enzo looks vulnerable in that lineup - like the Jermaine Taylor of the bunch. But I support the idea!

    Good stuff. Hopefully, the Super 6 format could also get placed in some of the other hot divisions. Bantamweight, Featherweight, Junior Welterweight, and may'be even Junior Middleweight.

    Takt could be great

    Let Wlodarczyk's magic promotor Wasilewski talk with Sauerland and it will be set up

    They can't drag it out like the Super Middleweight tournament. There are not enough big names in there, so people will get bored.

    Nah we dont want a guy who will want to fight a top 100 SMW out of the tourney but yet have it be for a CW title on his own terms in his backyard for $5mill.

    I think it's a great idea. Would be some good fights there.
