    OK so the six I have named can only be picked 4 more times and obviously according to the rules none of you can pick Robinson and Langford in same team you have to choose either one... and get in quick because the biggest names will be picked early....... Obviously Zab Judah's name will be gone fast and so will Lucas Browne's so hurry up you Zab fans.

    1. Muhammed Ali (HW) 2. Gene Tunney (LH) 3. Bob Fitzsimmons (M) 4. Ray Robinson (W) 5. Benny Leonard (L) 6. Henry Armstrong (F).

    I am going for total domination. Not only do i expect each to win the world title at their own weight, But if one of my fighters refuses to fight or is ruled inegible because they are on the same team, i expect another to substitute and win such a title, anyway.

    Against Greg, Henry Armstrong will not only win the lightweight title against Sam langford, but he will step up and upset Robinson in the welterweight division.

    Damn, i just realised that you also had Fitzsimmons and Leonard. Armstrong is going to be busy and up against it! I wonder if Tunney could drop enough weight to fight Fitz at middle. I will be definitely negotiating day earlier weigh-ins and a night time fight.

    Robinson is almost out of bounds already, no surprise there.

    Well I figure Langford can be more than useful at cruiser or super middle even but no at lightweight, he was young and raw at that weight but Armstrong couldn't beat Robinson when the did actually fight. I was not figuring on having a tournament, but if there was one I am confident I could win at Lightweight, Welterweight, Middleweight (Darcy)... Super middle or light heavy or cruiser and Louis should do we against any heavyweight.

    I deliberately didnt pick Langford because i saw you picked him. I reaplaced him with Benny Leonard, who you also picked! :patsch Armstrong was old and past it when he fought Robinson. If he cant change the result, i think i would send in a very young Bob Fitzsimmons to take on Sam in round 2.
