I'm really hoping that things fall into place nicely to bring us some great matchups as the universe progresses.

Based on the current standings, Group Four in the second stage of the WC tourney would feature:

Larry Holmes
Riddick Bowe
Sam Langford
Elmer Ray

(all of the four above are currently leading their groups)

Earnie Shavers
Tony Tucker
Tommy Gomez
Buster Mathis

(all coming 2nd in their groups)

BUT, if Mercer finishes 2nd in Group Twelve of stage one, he would be in this group instead of Gomez. So there is the real chance of an Elmer Ray - Ray Mercer bout in stage two (aswell as a Gomez - Ray bout, which would sure be interesting to see with both of them Alliance members).
