With recent WBA/IBF 4 tournaments it seems that this is great idea to find out the next mandatory position in the divisions. It will force the mandatory to have at least two good fights before title shot. What about the tournamenst for WBC and WBO as well. Assuming the IBF includes (Byrd/Brook/Powetkin/Chambers) WBA (Ruiz/Lyakhovitch/Valuev/Biedenko or Williamson) the potential WBC top four may be between (Vitaly/McCall/Virchis/Gomez) and WBO (Thompson/Dimitrenko/Holyfield/Skelton) If all the fights happen in one year it would be huge.:smoke
Yeah, it looks good on paper, but then it would be like a Floyd Mayweather type tournament, where the lower ranked guys do all the work by fighting the best guys and the champion just cherry picking until about every year, year and a half the champion fights the guy thats been through all the tough competition already.
Usually titleholders fight two time a year. So the tournament would be resolved the first 6 months then the mandatory will be forced in the next six months. In the mean time champion may fight his voluntaties or get some unification. However if the mandatory figter wins then his win will be well desrrved one.
It would be nice but unlikely.. the best solution would be taking the top 4 from each division, cross bracket them and fight for a unified title. That would be even more unlikely but i can still dream lol
