    I have a few questions about the super six that I need help with...
    The way I see it, ward has 4, AA and Johnson have 3, froch 2. I know ward is fighting bika out of tournament next.
    Are these points right..?

    So if AA kos froch(hope not as I'm going to it), will he be top seed and automatically rematch froch in the semis?
    Is ward gonna fight in the round robin again? If he does and gets ko'd (unlikely) then surely froch would be out..? Or if froch wins in Helsinki will he again be guaranteed to rematch AA in th semis...?

    Can anyone help?

    If froch wins then it's highly unlikely surely that ward will be in the round robin again as his opponent couldn't progress could he...?

    Ward has 6 points mate. He got given 2 for the Dirrel walkover and won't fight in the round robin again under any circumstances.

    I think (and its early Sunday morning!!) that the bottom line is that the winner of AA-Froch gets Ward and the loser gets Johnson.

    This tournament has turned into a total farce, they should have just drawn 8 or 4 out of a hat and the winner goes through to the next round.

    That wouldn't have guaranteed the boxers and fighters a minimum number of big, earning fights. I think that there was going to be at least 3 big fights for each boxer if they wanted it was probably a big factor in getting the names to sign up.

    I agree though, I think the format has been proven not to work for boxing. Its not practical to try and control 6 sets of boxers, managers and promoters for 3 years at a time.

    The fight isn't a Super 6 fight. It'll make no difference to the scoring if Bika wins, it'll **** up the credibility of the rest of the competition something awful though!!

    So Froch needs to box well and get a cut near the end
