    Who wins this 8 man featherweight tournament to crown a new king. I have used TBR ratings for the seedings-

    (1) Nicholas Walters vs. (8.) Lee Selby
    (4) Abner Mares vs. (5) Vaysl Lomachenko
    (2) Simpiwe Vetyeka vs. (7) Jhonny Gonzalez
    (3) Evgeny Gradovich vs. (6) Gary Russell Jr.

    How does this play out? :think

    I'm not sold on his mandibular fortitude. He seems to get hurt/dropped a lot when he probably always has a big size advantage.
