    Ths is a strange post mate :huh

    Stieglitz.....what......Andrade stopped him in 6 rounds.....and Andrade well Kessler schooled him to a huge wide wide loss.....Pavlik is a MW as is PW :huh

    Bika needs a big win over one of the above to get into the 6....leave it as it is :nut

    Kessler is being setup in Ward's home town, that is the plan. Ward's judges, referee, commentators, venue, ring, gloves, etc., but I think Kessler will knock him out anyway.

    Thanks Leon - I hope in the end it's not just pie-in-the-SKY.

    I'd guess no theres no chance they'll show Froch-Dirrell due to the time zone difference but the others if I hear anything I'll let everyone know.

    Setanta Sports in Australia have a deal with Mick Hennessy & televising at least 1 of his cards a month.
    Hennessy promotes the Froch-Dirrell fight so maybe Setanta Australia may get some rights to show that card.

    Robert Stieglitz is the current WBO 168lb Champion and Andrade was 3 seconds from becoming the IBF Champion v Bute , that should qualify Stieg for a shot in ANY unification Tourny , Andrade is a proven contender at 168lb's Ward or Dirrell ? Who have they beaten ? Williams could fight at 168lbs and be a contender imo as could Kelly Kelly Pavlik , Bika should have been included also .

    Why leave things alone when they could have included more fighters ( More fighters = more quality fights ) .

    More than 6 fighters and the format would need to change....as it is it goes on for 2 long......its not a bad thing for the fighters you have mentioned as they can fight out the WBO and IBF titles while the big guys are away.

    The guys holding these titles when the super 6 is done will be in a great spot for a huge fight against the winner.

    A couple of strange comments there yourself Ash .

    "as it is it goes on for too long" ? well i'm sure the majority of Fans would agree the longer the duration of the tourny the better because we get treated to a greater number of quality matchup's ( You do remember what it was like as recent as 4 years ago do you Ash with no **** wanting to fight each other ) ?

    p.s you got rocks in your head if you think the WBO champ is going to go within a country mile of the winnner of this tourny , and why should they get to sit on their arse whilst the tourny is on ?

    It might come down to the Showtime budget JW. Each fighter is getting 1.5 mill per fight.
