they have mixed mw with smw. what other weight classes do you think they could pull this off with and which six fighters from those weights would you have in it???
in an ideal world you would have to say the welterweights of; cotto, mosely, pacman, floyd, p williams, jmm but we all know the chances of that are slim to none more likely could be lightwegiht- light welter khan, juan diaz, tim bradely, valero, ortiz, and veteran nate campbell
WW, LW & HW. We know who will come out of HW though its a bit tricky with teh brother but it be nice clean up.
LWW seems the best option to me!! People are saying WW but I think that the fighters are just too famous for it!!! At 140 you can pick from JMM (If he loses to PBF), Bradley, Campbell, Holt, Khan (doubt it though), Kotelnik, Maidana, Judah, Torres, Urango, Malignaggi, J.Diaz, Katsidis, Valero, Prescott, Ortiz, Peterson and Hopkins. Def a good chance of getting 6 top quality fighters out of this bunch!!! Maybe LMW: P-Dub, Forrest, Cintron, Spinks, Martinez, Dzinziruk, Angulo, Moore, Foreman...maybe even Mayorga!?!? Not as good but still good!!!
Super 6 or 8 might gain in popularity if everything goes well with the 168 guys but they will soon need to start making 2 compelling fights per card.... I'm sure it's only a matter of time, they won't have a choice !!
If Arum and GBP could co-exist for that long, the duo could have an awesome little six man LW tournament. GBP- Vincente Escobedo, Michael Katsidis and JMM (Or Joel Casamayor if JMM is too big for it) Top Rank- Anthony Peterson, Edwin Valero and Urbano Antillon
