Will somebody get me smelling salts? Over a 'year' before the semis are held. GoodDay (talk) 23:17, 22 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Lucian Bute edit

Why the IBF champ is not here? What a huge shame... <<http://www.fightnews.com/?page_id=55>> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.248.68.139 (talk)

If you find reliable sources discussing the selection of the participants then you can describe it in the article from a neutral point of view with cited sources. I think there are many sources saying that Lucian Bute would have been good to see there but other concerns like money and promoters was a factor.

Removed Trainers list edit

I thought it would be best that the trainers list was removed. The core reason is that trainers typically are not notable. While there are always exceptions (e.g., Freddie Roach, Emanuel Steward, etc.), trainers by in large do not meet notability criteria. This has even stronger proof in that of the ten trainers listed, only 3 have articles. Moreover, of the three that do have articles, two (John David Jackson and Robert McCracken) have articles more for their careers as fighters than as their careers as trainers. Thus, only one trainer of the ten (Ulli Wegner) has an article for being a trainer. Since so few trainers have articles and the ones that do have little focus on their training, it seemed unnecessary and cluttering to list the trainers. Therefore, I removed the list. If there is consensus for it to return, then so be it. However, for now it seems best to remove it. RonSigPi (talk) 14:20, 8 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
