It's on ESPN right now. If it's anything like season 1, it should be great! I love this show. Let's get it started!
i watched almost all of the contender on nbc and thought it was really good. one problem is that i knew who was going to win by the background music the creators put in when they were fighting. hard to explain, but if you watch it you will see it. this season should be good and hopefully the best fighter will do as well as sergio mora is doing right now (undefeated last time i checked).
This show is outstanding! I thought last season was great. And this season is off to a terrific start. I like all the changes and twists they've added. Taking out the team challenges has allowed for more coverage of fighter interaction and the actual fights. The camera work this season is also really neat. Sly is still an Executive Producer for the show. I thought ESPN would surely screw this show up. But I dare say that I'm liking this second season even more than the first . . . so far.
I love the drama of the show. Plus they trim down the rounds and enhance the punching sounds. It's like watching Rocky, but without the Yo.
I also liked how they added a few established fighters on the show. Ebo Elder is very good, and i couldn't believe he was on the show.
Wright is a very good boxer, you could tell he is very skilled. Frankly, I am rooting for a K-9 vs. Wright bout...that should be a Contender classic. Good show all around...
