it is the only reality show that i have been following week by week, from the begining....
eddie i think you're being a little harsh on some of the guys....sergio seems to have a little bit of brains upstairs....but hey thats your opinion....
i was rooting for gomez since day one...its too bad....I'm now rooting for sergio....jesse is good but a little too old...
my prediction is sergio and manfredo in the main event and sergio taking it all the way...
go sly!!!!

well according to NBC they are not gonna renew the series after this 1 so enjoy will u can
i hope manfredo takes it all he was my pick from the beginning (before he got knocked outta the 1st round) and still since he came back
anyway here is the NBC crap
NBC is canceling the fourth installment of the "Law & Order" series, "Trial By Jury," which lost star Jerry Orbach to cancer shortly after production started. NBC risked alienating producer peepee Wolf because it wanted to try some new ideas, executives said.
"American Dreams," "Third Watch," "Revelations" and the Mark Burnett/Sylvester Stallone boxing series "The Contender" also will not be returning.

i was rooting for alfanso myself but unfortuatly i think that the end is going to be jessie and manfrado and i think personally manfrado and alfanso were the 2 best out of all of them. I'm pulling for manfrado, i think he wants it the most.
That sucks that it won't be coming back. I really liked that show.One of the Reality shows I watched....umm the only one.
Regarding Bigmo's info, Sucks that Revelations was such a bad version of the biblical verse. Being a religious man, that whole series was horrible. They need some real advisors to help them get it right.
Back to your normal programming

Jesse is out and the final fight will be Peter and Sergio. It should be a war! For $1,000,000...its on the table tomorrow nights (LIVE!!!) fight.
Its so hard to tell who's a good fighter. The way they edited the footage doesn't give you any idea of their boxing skills. All we got to see was the punches that landed and a slow motion replay. The landed punches are only half the story.
Jessy was my choice of the two. I'm 0-2 now. I'm glad I'm not betting on this series.
I wonder if these guys understand the one million dollars is only half that after taxes. it will be interesting to see what becomes of the winner in a year or two.

10% reality, 90% TV. In a year after the win, the cars and crib will be repossessed.

Most likely that will happen. I read an article the other day that 80% of all Texas lottery winners are broke. Who knows..maybe this exposure will give the top few fighters some great oppurtunities in life.

I'm willing to bet that some of them will go a lot farther than the final winner. It's all about heart.wannarunem said:
Very true we have not seen a full fight with these guys but based on that i think that manfreado is going to pull this off, i think hes better fighter and hes got the best attitude out of the two. He wants it. The money thing, i dont think these guys care that they will not get all of it, most of these guys that is still more then they have ever seen. I mean look i forgot who, but the guy who won the car, that was his first ever car.
I was bummed that Manfredo lost. He really did not put his all into it. I presonally think that Sergio was a loser since all he lilked to do was hug Manfredo from the get go. Nothing but a wouss!!! If I knew manfredo was going to box like that I would have just wanted gomez to win. He would have schooled that boy.
from what i saw, Manfredo was the one holding on to Sergio for dear life.....Manfredo didn't want to keep it in the middle of the ring cause Sergio is too fas for him and he would have gotten tagged the whole fight....Sergio faught like a true warrior, Manfredo is the one who acted like a wouss.....
In boxing, there is nothing wrong with tying up your oponint, its done all the time and is a successful strategy. I have never seen anyone fight off the ropes like I saw last night. He was totally amazing and deserved the victory. Both fighters gave it all they had and the best man won.
I liked the first fight as well. Jessie got his ass handed to him from Alfonso a fighter 2 weight classes lower.

:i totally understand the strategy, I'm just used to seeing it done by bigger fighters in long 12 round fights....
but, you put it very well..."they gave it all they had and the best man won"
i hope Sergio, Peter, Alfanso and Ishe go on to have very successful and lucrative boxing careers........
