Should be a great fight, Forbes has been the most impressive in the tournment thus far, but K-9 has been the biggest surprise...one sadly has to go tonight...
Tied 2-2, final round...Forbes clearly the better boxer, but K-9 can win through his usual antics, he doesn;t need much talent to do it.
I guarantee you on the real scorecards it was not 2-2 even though they made it seem that way by the editing, they have a way of doing that on this show. Forbes had too much power (from what it looked like)
Forbes is a really, really talented boxer. The only guy I think that came close to him talent-wise was Walter Wright, whom K-9 'beat' the last fight. I think Forbes won this one, K-9 was holding and doing everything else he could to stay in the fight in hope a couple of strong punches would land to win him the fight. He relies way too much on his size/strength advantage compared to the rest of the fighters. Forbes vs. Bravo would be a great fight...
The upcoming Bravo vs. Grady fight will be a better one than the Forbes/K-9 bout. These two guys are underdogs, have a lot of heart, and just give it their all in the ring...there likely won't be a dull or a 'slow' moment. I am rooting for Bravo, mainly because I think a Fobes-Bravo fight would be a classic one, similar to the Latin Snake from last season.
Grady's downfall might be his defense, it's just not very good. I also think Bravo can withstand more beating, he's just a tough nut... But what a comeback round by Grady...much better fight than the last one so far God damn this is a great match! Relentless beating. This would be the best comeback in the history of The Contender if Grady wins...just WOW!
It's over, Grady won...what an unbelievable comeback! Grady = HEART, It's like Rocky V. Classic bout...
No kidding to pull it out like that after he'd been knocked down in the 1st Should be a good fight next week, think Forbes is the favorite
need to see the 5 rounds in its entirity becuase i fell that bravo got robbed,,, he knock down grady and stunned him in round 3 and 4 and still lost???
I know what you mean, I really wish they would cut out the editing on the fights esp. since its on ESPN now Oh well at least we'll get the normal fight on the finale and we won't have to listen to Forbe GF anymore, god that woman has the most annoying voice ever!
If Forbes wins it's all on talent and heart, he was champion in the 130 lb. division and he is fighting guys 3-4 weight divisions higher, Cornelius Bundrage normally fights at 154 lb. so that was quite an accomplishment by Forbes. Brewer is also a 154 lb. fighter but to be honest he was a journeyman Forbes should win, he is faster and has better technique. I wonder who Gallagher is going to coach since he coached both of them in the semi-finals.
well we didnt see the whole fight....grady couldve won. they cut it so that you only see the big shots
