    What do you think will happen? Who will become the next WW king?

    Do you think they'll have a Super Six-esque tournament to determine the new #1 fighter at WW?

    the Super 6 at WW would be a great idea

    Brook, Thurman, Bradley, Maidana, Garcia, maybe even Matty or Provo

    then you have up and comers like Pomanarev and Spence Jr and you get a decent division

    That's a good idea, but I'd do a super 8 tournament instead and just change some of the rules of the tournament compared to the SMW tourney a few years back.

    Showtime had a great idea with that tournament, but it took way too long and with all the injuries that occurred throughout the entire tourney, it kind of made it one big clusterf$ck.

    The 8 I'd love to see participate in it are:

    Maidana, Thurman, Porter, Garcia (lineal JWW champ now campaigning in WW,) Khan, Spence Jr, Tim Bradley and than a WW gatekeeper (maybe Berto?)

    All those guys can participate in a tournament except for probably Bradley (being a TR guy.) Even if Bradley isn't involved, it would still be one of the best tournaments to make in any division.

    Who'll be the next cross-over superstar though? Maybe they won't even be for years to come, but... idk. Canelo is so young. Only 24 and already has had PPV's. I guess it could be possible for him, but idk how he'll fare after getting KO'ed by Golovkin this spring.

    Why are you telling me about them? I only said Vargas because you tried to hype him up at one point.

    Berto and Mayfield SUCK.

    And.........drum roll...........wait for it............wait for it..........the best WW ISNT ALLOWED DUE TO BOYCOTT......


    SOUNDS ALL TO FAMILIAR.

    EXCEPT....MSTHYSEE PLAYS THE PART OF FROCH while Bradley plays BUTE....

    Garcia ducks BRADLEY after the tournament and when Mathysse beats Bradley he can point to his gift as proof he's p4p #1

    There's no denying that Vargas is no elite but like Rios he's a solid fighter and has had several very solid Ws.

    Salka though......he's literally the worst everfight for a unified champion that I can remember

    Salka's garbage. My response to bm had nothing to do with Salka though.
