    If you don't think the super six is dead, then you're delusional.... If Dirrel leaves, who are you going to put in his spot? It's pointless, just drop the tournament and have AA still take on Froch and hopefully Ward vs Bute...

    I agree it's not as great as the 80's or 90's, but just because their aren't as many superfights doesn't mean there aren't any great fights. Not many thought Williams-Martinez would be a great fight, but IMO that is a superfight for the hardcore fan. These guys aren't as popular as Floyd or Manny yet, but that doesn't mean they aren't as good. It's just like in any sport, some Superbowls are going to go down to the last second, while others are one sided. It's no big deal.

    nothing will ever replace a good boxing match in my eyes. make the big fights, lets see may and manny, haye vs vlad. give the loyal fans something to look forward to.

    Boxing is having problems right now cause of Idiots like Oscar, Arum that are fvcking up boxing with FIXED FIGHTS involving the most overrated boxer in history, the epo-juicer, Manny Pacquiao.

    and the other ped juicer, Mosley.

    The Pac-Mayweather bull****, the HW division, the super six, yea, I'd say boxing has some issues but I still see some good things on the horizon. There are plenty of fighters still out there doing their best to give us good fights.

    I'm pretty pissed off about Ward vs Dirrell to be honest. Was looking forward to that one.

    In boxing sense, NO.

    Its more like "leveling out the playing field".

    Margarito's Team all knew that Mosley was juiced up, and had been for weeks, leading up to the fight.
    Margarito doesn;t have the EPO/PED Steroid connections with Conte, that Mosley had. and Margarito had no time to try to use the same EPO that Mosley used, so as a last resort, loading his gloves was the best available and only option for him to do, by which the CA boxing commission officials allowed him to do so, cause they all knew Mosley was "juiced up" that night and was not gonna get caught.

    Well we are only a few weeks away from a nice run of fights.

    The super six falling apart is disappointing, but its not the end of the world. Ward will still fight Abraham and/or Froch, and that is all that really matters. The actual Super Six trophy is meaningless, I do feel bad for Showtime for the way the fighters/promoters are acting.
