    Put the best 6 (Bradley, Maidana, Khan, Alexander, Ortiz, Marquez/Diaz) and fight for a prize of let's say 10 mil. Lets face it, neither of these guys will ever see a big payday without fighting Money May or Pac

    How would this be paid out fairly without egos being stroked or bruised? What would it take for these fighters just to go out there and show off their talent AND get paid a fair sum

    Don't think GBP would want to risk their precious planned future money maker Khan.

    Khan already sees big paydays. He got like upwards of a mil just for beating paulie.

    I would like to see this go down, but i feel like Marquez might be a little too old for something like this. I also think all of these fighters are moving at different paces and it wouldn't come to a head properly.

    there's 2 GBP guys in there. I'm just curious to see who dishes out 10 mil bucks without some kinda return. ie. commercials, ppv.

    What things would you do that the current Super 6 Isn't doing?

    Are they all under the same TV (HBO or Showtime) contract?

    Ahh, here lies the problem..

    I don't think anybody is an permanent HBO guy.

    It would probably have to be under showtime but either matchup would be a fantastic ppv.

    Probably not. The 168 Super Six actually happening was a miracle. I don't think you'd be able to get all these guys to commit to a tournament. Khan already said he wouldn't and he'd need to be in it.

    Wouldn't it be more of a "Junior 6"? i.e Jnr Welter?
