I only liked the 1st contender. 2nd season seemed somewhat empty...

I guess Season 2, no one expected that guy to be the winner since he was soo passive right from the start laugh.gif
Hopefully this Season 3 will be better since I see some good names in there that been around the super middleweight class thumbup.gif

A third Contender? Wow... can't wait for that... Season 1 was just bloody brilliant! Season 2 had me thinking whether there will ever be more Contenders since it was just lacklustre and there was no Stallone... anyways, Sugar Ray did a fantastic job. I hope they revamped it all up for this season. Looking forward to it... now I should watch AXN Channel 17 a lot more...

HAHAHA! I remember him! That d00d is all trash talking laugh.gif

But yeah, I guess everyone here already agrees that Season 1 is probably the best, better than Season 2.

In Season 1, I was actually rooting for Ant, the brawler guy that has 2 kids (boy and girl) to take care.
He almost gonna win against Jesse Brinkley, but in the final few seconds, he got KOed by 2 power-packed uppercuts sad.gif

But yeah, in the finale, I was all rooting for DA LATIN SNAKE! thumbup.gif

Glad that there's a female viewer. I guess its the dramatic choreographic style that captures the interest, particularly drawing from the vibe of Stallone and his days as Rocky thumbup.gif

Yep, there's no more outdoor challenges. This time its just training sessions and fight nights.
Of course, there's the occasional breaktime where they'll treat the champs to some nice food and clothes.

damit... first episode removed...
i've only watched second episode, no time tongue.gif

Jaidon doesn't look tough... Bryan lost cos he don't have stamina and low endurance.
He can't take punches and he can't keep up his assault. But technique wise, he's better than jaidon.

Just watched all the episodes...
pepe's advice for sakio to use his jabs to control unorthodox fighting style
is the best advice anyone can ever give. Damn hebat.

I actually support Sakio Bika since day one.
But sakio can't really take punches... and jaidon is a heavy hitter.
I'd like to say sakio got skillz, but jaidon got skillz too.
Honestly, i want sakio to win.... but i think jaidon is gonna come thru.
