Not really, because Floyd wont FIGHT just any opponent.

He could fight Keith Thurman....but Floyd will say he's not a draw. He just said Amir Khan basically isnt "popular" enough. We both know there's no way in HELL he'd fight Erislandy Lara....so this tournament will force a mandatory challenger for him at both 147 and 154 and he will have to face them.
I mean because outside of a few(and even that's a stretch) there's nobody to fight. When did he say no to Khan, again?

time wasting side show.... anything and everything can happen with a long drawn out tournament from injuries to life issues outside the ring. fans were getting ready for may 2., that now looks like a pipedream.

The WBC is basically doing it at Heavyweight and it's been fun so far.


Bryant Jennings vs Mike Perez = Jennings won
Berman Stiverne vs Deontay Wilder = Winner faces Bryant Jennings

Winner of Stiverne/Wilder vs Bryant Jennings faces Wladamir Klitschko to unify every Heavyweight Belt.


If Jennings drops out and takes the Klitschko fight for April 25th, then the winner of Alexander Povetkin vs Mike Perez will take his spot against the winner of Stiverne vs Wilder.



Tournaments are great for boixng, because it gives some type of order to it

Here ya go:


Mayweather was questioned about the possibility of facing British star Amir Khan (30-3, 19KOs), who dominated Devon Alexander this past Saturday, and the pound-for-pound king didn't appear too interested in the matchup.

"Khan should make a name for himself. Right now nobody knows who Amir Khan is, only boxing people. I think he should wait a bit [and make a bigger name for himself]. My focus right now is Pacquiao and I want that fight," Mayweather said

i see and agree with your point with breathing more life into the sport and seeing more matches. boxers used to fight more than once or twice a year. i was just addressing the super-fight situation that is way past due.
