A Great Weekend of Boxing
It was really a great weekend of Boxing. The Super-Six tournament continues to produce great drama and entertaining fights. I wonder if this concept is going to catch on, going forward? The Super Middleweight division seems to have just the right mix of personalities to make the tournament work.
This type of tournament would probably have difficulties working if you included some of the well-known pound-for-pound fighters because they'd probably price themselves right out of it. But so far so good for the Super Middleweight division.
Chris Arreola really lost a tough, important fight this weekend. With the division being the way it is, though, Heavyweights can be recycled a lot easier than fighters in other divisions. John Ruiz, Hasim Rachman and Oleg Maskaev come to mind immediately... and there are others as well.
Still, he drops a notch with this loss.
