Who takes this tournament of 12? Group A Corrie Sanders vs Larry Gaines <<<>>> Joe Mesi vs Rex Layne ( winners meet each other ) Group B Sam McVey vs Chris Byrd <<<>>> Fred Fulton vs Gerry Cooney ( winners meet each other ) Group C Shannon Briggs vs. Tommy Morrison <<<>>> Mike Spinks vs. Jerry Quarry ( winners meet each other ) Group D Elmer Ray vs. Jimmy Young <<<>>> Frank Bruno vs. Tony Tubbs ( winners face each other ) Semis Group A Winner vs Group C winner Semis Group B Winner vs Group D winner Finals: Your call.
Sanders Byrd Spinks Ray Byrd beats Sanders. Spinks edges Ray. Nobody is awake through the whole of Byrd v Spinks in the final, so it is ruled a NC.
The winner of the Tubbs v Bruno fight could go all the way. The best version of Tubbs could outbox them all. Bruno could blast the lot of them.. Big Frank only lost when he fought at the highest level.
I wanted a tournament without a clear cut favorite. It could play out differently. I might pick a Sanders vs.Tony Tubbs final.
The only two I can't see winning in any way is Briggs and Mesi. Interesting choices. At first view I chose, Layne, Byrd, Spinks and Young. But I can see Sanders advancing now over Layne. Tough choices. Larry Gains was nice inclusion.
