The WBSS has almost wrapped up its second season with only the Cruiserweight final needing to take place. This would have already happened but like with most things was cancelled due to the Corona Virus. I’m a big fan of the world boxing super series as it always brings us great fights and often shines a spotlight on divisions which normally don’t get much attention. I’ve decided too look and pick out 3 divisions which I think they should pick for season 3.
First off is the light fly weight division which is completely stacked with talent. They would be able to get all the champions involved and money wouldn’t be a huge problem as even champions at the lower weights don’t get paid huge amounts. We could potentially get match ups of Kenshiro Teraji versus Hiroto Kyoguchi or Elwin Soto versus Felix Alvarado. These match ups all being in the same tournament would be incredible and thats why almost everyone thinks they should include this division next season.
One of my other picks would be the Super Featherweight division which is stacked full of talent but hasn’t had a unification in years. If they can get a few of the champions involved like Jamel Herring, Joseph Diaz and Miguel Berchelt then it could be great. They could also add people like Tevin Farmer, Oscar Valdez, Carl Frampton and Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov. It would have plenty of big names involved and whoever won would become a true star in the sport. The super Featherweight division also needs a unification to happen as they have been defending their individual titles for too long.
The final division which I would do is the Light heavyweights. The division has a lot of good names and could easily have a stacked 8 man tourney. We could also potentially see a undisputed champion at the weight which would be incredible. A fight between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol is one that I need too see and this tourney could lead to that.
Financially these tournaments wouldn’t be too expensive though the Light Heavyweight one would be much more costly than the other two. Fans would appreciate the fights and we could see some incredible match ups which is what the world series of boxing is all about.
