THE TOURNAMENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SINGLE ELIMINATION,INSTEAD OF THESE POINTS SYSTEM................... IT'S TAKING SO LONG, AND WILL BE OVER IN 2011 DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH THIS FORMAT?atsch
Kind of sucks that it takes so long to finish. The positive is that your guaranteed to see the top guys facing each other in the meanwhile sans Bute.
I actually completely disagree since the point system would more likely give an indication of who is the best rather than who had good matchups and were in the zone a certain night. I let you figure out how the current system enforces this i do feel the fights should be arranged and happen a little faster though
i love it fans should have nothing to complain about this we complain about when the best dont fight the best now they are and still complaints just look at it llike it not a tourny just that u get to see the best fighters in the division fight each other for 2yrs
I LOVE the format. We have the BEST fighting the BEST. Just forget about the word "tournament" for a second. We have gotten Kessler-Froch, Abraham-Dirrell, just to name a couple and we will be getting Froch-Abraham and Ward-Dirrell. Plus, on top of that we have had about 6 or 7 episodes of Fight Camp 360's and we have gotten a sneak peak into the lives of these fighters and some of the negotiations that have gone on. Why people whine about this tournament is beyond me. Just borderline ******ed. Even if they weren't in this "Super 6 tournament" it's not like these guys would be that active anyway. Kessler was on a milk carton (and probably would have stayed on the milk carton) , Froch would have fought some mando., Ward and Dirrell would still have the "prospect" label on them as they continue to work their way up, Abraham...who knows really? May'be he would have stayed at MW and still have defended his IBF title against mandos. Or may'be he would have moved up to SMW. Abraham is question mark, but you get my point...hopefully.
its better this way. why so impatient? Big fight after big fight and you're still unhappy? the only problem is that its not the top6 SMWs
lol Its set up like World Cup Soccer, but the teams take 5-6months each to play again lol. Its a big and great gamble.... I like it but it is a Longterm situation. I just hope it doesnt lose its steam with fans.... Be about 2yrs for Ward vs Bute....
It's fine the way it is. 2 years to fight 5 fights is just about right. At such an elite level, the fighters should get the time they need to recover and train properly.
Are you keeping track of all these points you're giving out? I want a comprehensive chart at the end of every month.
Its actually i think 3 years altogether for the tournament, guestimate? 2yrs is a guestimation from this very day and on.... w/ prefight prep time for Bute
