What is your opinion about these and do you think it's a good idea? I like the idea, I know it's a bit tough to pull off but it sounds good to me.

Or better yet in the Featherweights after JuanMa
and Vasquez move up. Rafael Marquez is already
there after a 3 round KO over Jose Francisco Mendoza
in May. You've got Chris John, Gamboa and maybe
they could entice Celestino Caballero to the
Featherweights as well.
That's the division I'll be looking at the most right
now......unless they don't make any good fights
there. I don't see how they could get around not
having any, considering.
And if they don't make good fights there then lets
just take the promoters out and shoot them.

The WBA Heavyweight tournament of 1967 - 1968 was a good one that had Jimmy Ellis winning.

Steve why don't you talk your superiors at HBO into doing the same for the welterweights that Showtime is doing for the supermiddleweights?

GROUP STAGE 1
CARL FROCH vs. ANDRE DIRRELL (for WBC World Championship)
JERMAIN TAYLOR vs. ARTHUR ABRAHAM
MIKKEL KESSLER vs. ANDRE WARD (for WBA World Championship)
Showtime is the shit-I can't wait 4 this shit 2 kick off. My only question is how the hell is Jermain Taylor on there rather than Allan Green. It would've been icing on the cake had Kelly Pavlik and Allan Green been added-but I'm happy hell regardless
