    In a flyweight tournament I'd probably leave Gonzalez and Estrada out. To me they are similar to say the 2010 Heavyweight and Welterweight Scene, where it's the Klitschko's, then everybody else, or Pac/May then everyone else.

    Ruenroeng had a good run but I don't think he's in the league of the top 2 yet. Probably replace them with Ioka and Yaegashi.

    I'd like to see a Heavyweight one where you have 8 fighters with a lot of power, but also glass chins. Like Price, Mitchell, Wilder, Harrison, etc. There would be glass all over the place and you could do it in a prizefighter environment.

    He didn't have the courage to stand and trade with Carlos Molina. Can you imagine how much he'd stink the joint out if he's drawn against Golovkin.

    LWW:

    Garcia
    Bradley (Can probably make 140)
    Pacquiao (Plans to drop down to 140)
    Matthysse
    Mayweather (Can probably make 140)
    Broner
    Crawford (Plans to move up to 140)
    Khan (He would drain to 140 if it meant a potential Mayweather fight)

    That would be awesome. I always thought that getting normal people from the street and putting them in a boxing ring against each other would make good TV. Your suggested HW tournament is the next best thing to that.

    Would it not make more sense to have that at 147?

    At why the hell would you include a bum like Broner in that. He obviously has no chance of winning.

    Would probably be a better if you replaced GGG with someone else. None of those guys would have a chance to beat him.
