editI found this template which can be used when the bouts are decided for cruiserweight and super middleweight tournaments. SethWhales talk 06:22, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

- When I started this page, I thought it best to make it similar to the tennis pages. I think that the brackets should go in the weight class pages, not the main page. Part of the reason is if this tournament has more than one edition, it keeps the main page clean. What do people think? RonSigPi (talk) 15:28, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- Hi RonSigPi, I found the other articles after editing this main page...It is a good point you make, however it may only ever be a one-off event and not annual event like the organisers are saying. Also they may have different weight categories each year too, such as heavyweights or middleweight etc. At the moment the main article is only a stub, so I feel that should be expanded first. What do you think? SethWhales talk 16:27, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- SethWhales, I worry it will look like Battle 4 Atlantis and countless other bracket-heavy pages where its really hard to follow and find the info you want. You are right the main article should be expanded first, but I would rather see that have background information, information on when fighters signed, etc. Also, without the brackets, the weight class pages will be small and have little use.

- RonSigPi, IF (and that's a big if) there is an event in 2018/19, then certainly it would start looking like Battle 4 Atlantis, but at the moment I feel it's okay. SethWhales talk 19:20, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- Fair enough. We can all revisit when the 2017 tournaments are done. If there is never another set, then maybe we even delete the division pages and roll into the main page. RonSigPi (talk) 21:19, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
- RonSigPi - Agreed. SethWhales talk 06:35, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

SethWhales, or anyone else for that matter, the brackets are not aligning. The cruiserweight bracket is indented a bit more than the super middleweight - enough to notice. I have no idea how to make them line up, so hope that you do (or someone else that sees this knows how). RonSigPi (talk) 16:04, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
Removing brackets
edit@RonSigPi and Seth Whales: With another tournament announced, I think it's worth considering removing the brackets. I would be in favour of doing so. Fpwlada (talk) 19:14, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
