    The super 6 has officially died. It cant possibly survive the latest pussying out by Andre the gazelle Dirrell. You cant bring replacments in, the tornament is ****ed and cannot work.

    Nobody with half a brain (unless ur american) can actually believe Dirrell is injured. Ward and Dirrell are a pair of ***gots, they have decided they are above showtime and above the super six, and above the terms of any contract.

    Lets just cancel this farce, strip ward of that belt and make sure neither of these 2 jokers EVER have a meaningful fight, get another payday or make it back on TV again.

    It's brought us some great fights and it still can. As an idea, it's exactly what boxing needs.

    Dirrell being in was something Showtime will regret. That's a serious kick in the balls.

    It's the first of its kind, there's always going to be teething problems but I agree, 2 guys sign up for a tournament knowing full well they'll face each other and when that time comes they ***** out??

    I hope Showtime come down hard, hopefully they've got Dirrel tied down for x amount of fights and tell him "you're not fighting again or going anywhere till you fight Ward".

    It should be cancelled, Dirrell out, Kessler out, and Bute not even in it. What's the point?

    Hopefully AA and Carl still fight though, b/c that will be action packed.

    Genueinly i hope Dirrells career is over. He has embaressed himself every single step of the way in this tournamant. From his pathetic display in the froch fight, to his pathetic oscar winning war casualty DQ winning performance against Abraham, now this.


    The guy is finished as a fighter, how can anybody possibly support this **** or ever want to see him again. This tournamant has ruined his career

    im genuinely upset ward vs dirrel isnt happening. It was the biggest fight of the year IMO.

    Dirrel is an idiot, why didnt he pull out sooner if he was having headaches? instead of wasting everybodys time including andre wards.

    co sign..sh1t is over...it was supposed to be about settling who the best 168lb fighter was but all of em not named ward or froch has dropped out or been forced to quit due to health...

    Hopefully they just give us a few good fights for the rest of the year....tournaments in boxing that are longer than a year are not gonna work the majority of the time in a sport with mandatories and as many sanctioning bodies as fighters

    :lol:

    Exactly what we need, controvery, disqualification, and unworthy replacement like Green and Johnson. The basic idea was good but in the outcome look more like a big black eye to boxing credibility.

    Shudda just been a four man tournament. Or even an eight man tournament. But no group stage bull****. Straight knockout.

    Too many contracts are signed to cancel it altogether, unfortunately.
