    Run on the same lines as the European Football Championships -


    Group A

    Jim Jeffries
    Jack Johnson
    Jack Dempsey
    Gene Tunney


    Group B

    Joe Louis
    Rocky Marciano
    Sonny Liston
    Muhammad Ali


    Group C

    Joe Frazier
    Lennox Lewis
    Larry Holmes
    Mike Tyson


    Group D

    George Foreman
    Evander Holyfield
    Vitali Klitschko
    Wladimir Klitschko *


    Klitschkos relationship is immaterial. They fight each other like they would anyone else.


    Quarter final 1 - Winner of Group A meets runner up of Group B
    Quarter final 2 - Winner of Group B meets runner up of Group A
    Quarter final 3 - Winner of Group C meets runner up of group D
    Quarter final 4 - Winner of Group D meets runner up of Group C


    Semi-final 1 - Winner of fight one meets winner of fight 3.
    Semii-final 2 - Winner of fight two meets winner of fight 4.


    Three points for a win. One for a draw.

    If two fighters are level on points,the one with more knockouts goes ahead. If they're still level after that,then a head to head issue resolves it.

    Fifteen rounds.
