Super Six Rules Round 1 Thomas Oosthuzien v George Groves - United Kingdom James Degale v Adonis Stevenson - Canada Edwin Rodriguez V Anthony Dirrell 0 United States of America Round 2 Thomas Oosthuzien v Adonis Stevenson - South Africa Edwin Rodriguez v James Degale - United Kingdom Anthony Dirrell v George Groves - United States of America Round 3 Thomas Oosthuzien v Edwin Rodriguez - USA James Degale v George Groves - UK Anthony Dirrell v Adonis Stevenson - Canada Semi Final (Groves V Oosthuzien) (Rodriguez V Stevenson) (Degale V Dirrell on the under card) Final (Groves V Rodriguez) (Degale V Oosthuzien on the undercard) How would you guys have it?
It will take too long and more than likely have injuries through the course of the tournament. Instead of a S6, Super 8 will be better. Winners move on to the next round, losers go home. Home advantage will be based on rankings. Quick and easy.
Fair point. Allow me to alter it Qualifiers A.Thomas Oosthuzien V Adonis Stevenson - Canada B.Edwin Rodriguez V George Groves - USA C.James Degale V Anthony Dirrell - UK D.Arthur Abraham V Kelly Pavlik - Germany Semi Final A V C (Oosthuzien V Degale - South Africa) B V D (Groves V Abraham - UK) Final (Oosthuzien V Groves- USA) Also much bigger fights after this 8 man tourny Groves V Froch Kessler V Oosthuzien Ward V Degale Bute V Stevenson This is what 168 needs!
Well to put it lightly yes We have a great crop of fighters to replace Ward, Froch, Bute and Kessler Only trouble is you dont get to see them fighting each other (except for Groves-Degale) Oosthuzien taking on Stevenson would be a good match up Groves going head to head with Rodriguez Dirrell and Degale would be a good matchup stylistically too I suppose if we have AA Vs Pavlik it would give them both another shot also
