    Essentially.... If These 6 Fighters Promoters Wanted Too... They Could Organize another tournament that happens along the same time line as the other tournament and then the winner of tournament A & tournament B could meet in a True 168 Final...

    Although the Winner From Bracket A would probably wind up emerging victorious... this would be an interesting way to spice things up...

    it would just be like ncaa mens basketball tournament... March Madness...

    Fine by me, but it would not be a 50 mill$ tournament. And Bute would proberly want his fights to take place in Canada. Also who would be part of the best of the rest?

    I think that if another tournament should take place right away, it would be in another weightclass.

    Let's be honest, there's not much mystery surrounding who the dominant fighter in that pack would be, regardless of what you think of the last few seconds of Bute/Andrade.

    Not enough, and there isn't enough parity involved either. It would be hard to find the networks to bankroll that one though.

    Sounds like a line up for 'The Contender' rather than a serious tournament

    :patsch


    It includes the guys ranked 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 10 by Ring magazine, two of whom are undefeated beltholders. Substitute Inkin for someone else if you like, but it it's a pretty solid tournament. Just there aren't any popular names there, so it would be tough to get the money together.
