New season of 'The Contender' on Versus to feature cruiserweights

[Spicoli]

Good Info....Not to soil on the new carpet But I wish this 'show' would go away.....How about they just double up there efforts in full card promotions and put these guys on the air in solid 10 rounders minus the mellow dramatic sound effects and plastic feel ....guess that answers it self

Bell quits vs.Adamek and he's the most prominate one ?

I'm exactly like you! I know Sergio has done well but the rest of the bunch have lagerly turned out to be an embarrassment.

Manfredo, Gomez, Brinkley, Gomez, Bika, Codrington, they are just fish food for hungry sharks.

Plus playing an orchestral score whilst these plodders heave themselves around the ring makes the action taking place inside the ropes just look ridiculous.

It's like watching some fat minger in a club trying to seduce you by dancing to Britney's 'I'm a slave 4 you'.

Inside you feel nothing but contempt and disgust for the ugly fat mess but you're drunk so you fuck her anyway, I feel exactly the same with the Contender, it's shit, the fighters suck and it bores me, but I'll still watch because it's boxing

But ideally I wish Ray Leonard would take this show and shove it up his ass.

Now that scares the hell out of me.... Honestly though,my main point is more directed at the Networks and how they sort of "cheapen" some of the fighters Imo.Look,I have no quams with some of the also ran fighters getting some career bump out of this,Cannot really blame them.But to believe this really represents the totality of the sport/fighters is faulty thinking Imo..It is waaay over edited and plays to the simplicity of the same prime time part time viewers that still believe Tyson can fight .

Heres an Insane Idea......why not take the very same fighters mentioned in the possible Cruiser weight season and ohhh I dont know....say, enter them in an actual network championship tournament in actual 10-12 round main events with some dignity as opposed to dumbed down,abbreviated highlight packaged fights??Networks used to do this allll the time.

I am all for bringing new fans into the game,letting some of the fighters "get some" in other wise under the radar careers,but Im all about the Networks putting there capital into full length Boxing cards and leaving the gimmicks for the other thousands of over dolled up "reality" shows....All that said though.....Its ultimatly about the Boxing so...... see ya ringside .
