    Wha do you guys think of ODLH's idea for a 154 lb tournament? If it follows the format he envisions (single elimination, one card with 4 fights) those could prove to be very entertaining. Granted, the PPV price may be through the roof, but these are cards that would definitely be worth watching.

    Depend on who the 4 are. Boxing fans would happily pay top price for

    Canelo
    Cotto
    Lara
    Kirkland

    Cotto may be unatainable, so replace him with a lesser fighter. K9

    He mentioned an 8 man tourney. I actually think he did mention K9 as well as Angulo.

    You will be happy to know that was one of the main things he talked about, not dragging it out over a 2 year period. Here is the link:

    I'm excited for this idea.
