This has not been cleared by upper managment.

It is still in "proposal" stage.

The board will need to review the details, and set fees, etc.

We'll get back to you.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

:??

The Super Six was a resoudning success last season? What's the problem with finishing a season with the top six elite fighters battling against each other?

Just hadn't heard a thing about it, and I planned to go to Tahiti after week 30.....so...... we may need to iron out the details.

might have to make it 12....perhaps? two sets of six leading to the finale? Each fighter in sudden death mode?

That was suggested last season. but I want to keep it as as just the top six... If you include more than that, then unfortunately you will have 2nd tier fighters in there.

This tournament is only for THE BEST OF THE BEST!

Of course both of my fighters, 2 of the sims greatest, will enter.

The 6 gladiators will be decided by the public, but I applaud your daring enthusiasim.

The poll to decide the top 6 will open on Monday.

So, select 6 options... Also write them down in your posts so we know wo you have voted (and why, if you so wish).

The poll will stay open for 7 days, after that the line-up will be finalised.

Sugar Ray Robinson
Joe Louis
Roberto Duran
Harry Greb
Willie Pep
Gene Tunney

My selections will be:

Sugar Ray Robinson:
Basically being a 6 time World Champion should be qualifying anyone for a Super Six, plus he's been a dominant force this season.

Benny Leonard:
Was the clear forerunner at the start of the season and has been relatively successful this season.

Joe Louis:
Joe Unified three of the World titles, and that's enough for me.

Roberto Duran:
Roberto was the Million Dollar Tournament Champion, and for me, that's an automatic qualification.

Rocky Marciano:
The Rock has been a top contender all throughout the season and is a 2 time World Champion - hence one of the more successful fighters of the season.

Eder Jofre:
Has been farily consistent throughout the season, and I think that he maybe deserves the 6th place in The Super Six.

Guys, do take the 60 seconds to state your 6 options in a post.

Greb also had a Lonsdale title reign as well as wins over fellow Super Six hopefuls Tunney, Jofre and Duran.

So if Pep was to beat SRR next week, then no titles would be on the line if the rest of the sim agrees with your choice of fighters

SRR
Benny Leonard
Gene Tunney
Joe Louis
Harry Greb
Eder Jofre

These fighters have been the standouts, for me.

SRR
Benny Leonard
Roberto Duran
Rocky Marciano (Meant to choose Joe Louis but clicked the wrong person)
Willie Pep
Gene Tunney

D'you know that I never considered that... Maybe the winner of Robinson vs Pep - as Undisputed Champion - should automatically be entered into the tournament.

Just a thought.

I say just leave it as it is. Both fighters are likely to be included in the SS anyway.

As previously stated, Duran will retire. The corrupt voting has firmed his stance further. Good luck to the competitors of the tainted TITLE

TMDT is the pinnacle and we shall graciously rest with it in the cabinate.

Thank you, goodnight, much love.

Are there any names missing that should be here? Make your case here, or forever hold your tongue.

I am open to testimonials, however they will need to gain recongnizable, and measurable public support.


Sadly late starters do not have options in Crease's (ok...I agree with this) world. Leaving out many with potential.

Perhaps a late starters tourney could be considered. But dues paying and experience is part of a championship run.

Later arrivals were not properly tested/vetted, and are not candidates for the big show unless their streak was hot enough to earn them the points they needed.


JDC....IF Duran makes it...and I believe he will/should. He may well be brought in chains to beat down the other competitors.

Won't you reconsider?

3 days to go before voting closes...

Then Duran will fight for the honor of the SIM. I might not have time to be around much... feel I'm gonna be very busy whilst this gets run

I'll drop in now and then to see how it's going. Good luck everyone 8)
