I watched the show tonight seems like it will be pretty good. I'm not sure which I like better though Contender or Ultimate Fighter.

[Dukefan3]

I thought it was really good. i liked the way they split up in teams and how they get to watch their opponents train.

good show. i think it is as close to a real "reality" show we have. you don't get voted off because your not liked by other contestants or the public. You win or lose in the ring.
You gotta love the underdog last night.

I had a feeling he was gonna win. He was more confident but not a better fighter. I guess he just had more heart than the undefeated fighter. but they all lose at one time or another.

I loved the show, I am definately hooked, I have always liked boxing, but never really watched it because I didnt want to get pay per view, and didnt care about the other people.

I guess now I have people to root for, because some of their stories were awesome.

There was a show on a few months ago that was just like this, but of lower quality. It was called the "Next Great Champ" I was hooked on that. This one is a lot better with better fighters, I love it. Its gonna be an awesome show.

Didn't one of these boxers committ suicide?

I think so I cant remember if it was this show or another, but I remember reading it somewhere.

ANybody else remember or have that story??

[Diets17]

Yeah, sure did. I dont know which one is was though. Might ruin the show if we fight out now.
