Ack! I missed the beginning! What happened so far? Did Joey's dad come on yet?

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"

Yes both dads showed up for the fight.

I believe it's 8 pm & 11 pm... sometimes they show it on Wednesdays as well, let me go check!


ETA: Yup! 8 & 11 pm on both Monday & Wednesday.


"Round 1"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 08:22 PM
Jimmy started strong, but Joey came back!

"Round 2 and on..."
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 08:29 PM
2 - Joey looked good!

3 - Jimmy takes over & Joey looks hurt.

4 - Joey looks like he's in bad shape!

5 - Joey comes back! Jimmy's bleeding and he goes down!


The fight is over, is it a knockout?

AHHHH!!!! commercial!


"The Decision..."
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 08:41 PM
Joey!!!

The guys are applauding his courage and they didn't think he had it in him!

Juan goes to the doc & he decides he can't fight with his injuries.

Joey gets his necklace and the reward is all of the guys (both sides) will be flown on a private jet to Ceasar's Palace in las Vegas!


"RE: The Decision..."
Posted by volsfan on 04-17-05 at 08:44 PM
Joey did a great job! He was very agressive. I can't wait to see what they do in Vegas!

Sorry Nutz to leave you here alone. I got lost!


"RE: The Decision..."
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 08:59 PM
It's alright, I figured you'd make it back here eventually!

Sergio won a brand new Toyota Tundra! It is his first car. This is emotional.


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"

CARP...leave us hangin! URGH I HATE EPMB!

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 08:56 PM
The guys all have a great time in Vegas, they stand in the actual ring where the final fight will take place and then they draw cards to see who'll win a Toyota Tundra truck.


... it is Sergio! He doesn't even own a car right now.


Then they are told they have to vote someone back in and Joey is seen saying, "I know 3 other guys who are going to vote this way, we gotta throw a monkey wrench in it."


Their choices are: Jonathan, Ahmed, Miguel, Tarick and Jimmy.

I don't know if you guys caught this while watching the preview for next week, but they brought back Ahmed! They show him briefly in the ring fighting Alfonzo.

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:05 PM
Yes! I saw Ahmed too!

Not only in the ring, but I could've sworn I saw him standing next to one of the other guys with street clothes on.


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"

Whoever made the preview for the upcoming episode should be FIRED. Now we know who they choose to come back.............

That's so annoying!!! PLUS - it should have been my cousin Jeff to come back. His chicken pox had to have been gone by then wouldn't you think? They should have given him his chance! I'll have to ask him if he wasn't better yet or something.


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:06 PM
Didn't he have to be out of the ring for 30 days? If so, that's why he wasn't eligible to come back. It wasn't 30 days yet.

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by GoFraza on 04-17-05 at 09:11 PM
Oh man that just sucks! I didn't remember anything about the 30 days out of the ring.

When Jeff got kicked off, my husband and I said jokingly "Maybe someone else will get sick or hurt and he will come back". So when Juan turned out to be an idiot and gave up his chance, I couldn't believe it! I thought, maybe this is Jeff's chance. Oh well...


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:14 PM
It's really too bad. Jeff never even got his chance to fight once. That totally stinks! I would have loved to see him in the ring.

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by SheilaP on 04-17-05 at 09:08 PM
So i'm guessing Joey and Jesse voted for Ahmed, notice the wink Jesse gave Joey? I wonder what their reasonings are for bringing him back??

I don't know if it was just me, but i think this was the most dramatic episode ever! I am also soooooooo happy that Joey won! If his hamstring wasnt acting up in the 3rd & 4th round he would have taken out Jimmy earlier!


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:10 PM
Yeah, they showed Alfonso & Sergio nodding to those guys too! It's definitely Ahmed coming back!


Welcome to the boards!

Remember: The Ishe aliance is no longer as strong as it used to be. I think the majority go with the strongest fighter available ..

Welcome back, Ahmad.

Dang, next week's two episodes will be amazing!

It is so obvious!

Joey said, "we gotta throw a monkey wrench in it" and then you see Jesse with a stupid smirk on his face!


It has to be Ahmed... I hope Jesse has to fight him! (that probably won't happen, but I can hope)

ETA: Welcome to the boards!


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by volsfan on 04-17-05 at 09:10 PM
Do you think Ahmed is the strongest of the 5 that were possibilities to return?

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:12 PM
No I would say Jonathan, they are going to bring him back to mess with Ishe!

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by volsfan on 04-17-05 at 09:16 PM
I agree. I think they knew exactly what they were doing.

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:20 PM
... and Jesse is the ringleader in the whole mess!


This is dumb, voting these guys back in! I think if you're out, your out.


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by SheilaP on 04-17-05 at 09:23 PM
It may be dumb but they really have no choice. They can't have 7 people in the second rounds because that would mean that someone has to fight twice. How is that fair?

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by ARnutz on 04-17-05 at 09:31 PM
I know, I understand why they are doing it. They have to make it even and have 4 fights in the semis.


I just think the producers should've planned ahead of time for this possibility, I mean it is boxing and the guys can get hurt doing it.

They had only one alternate and it was Alfonso, but apparently they had to use him before they even began taping.

I don't think they should have voted the first person back into the game. I am with Nutz...once you lose you should be out. I wonder what happened to boxers that didn't make the final 16? Couldn't they bring in number 18 and 19?

Edited because I forgot that Alfonso was an alternate!

Exactly! Next time they need to plan for a second and third alternate!

Of course if they had that many alternates, they would probably never use them!


Edited because I can't spell!

since it is the second round they should have 2 alternates fight and then the winner join the final 8...

I hate bringing back fighters who have lost...


"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by GoFraza on 04-17-05 at 09:15 PM
It IS Ahmed, because we all saw him in the preview...

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by flipxcyd on 04-18-05 at 00:39 AM
Yep - it's Ahmed. With the technology of Tivo, I paused, slowed it, frame by frame...it's definitely Ahmed. He's also fighting Alfonso too. Looks like he's beating him, but you know how previews go.

"RE: Episode 04/17 Discussion"
Posted by mike13 on 04-18-05 at 01:15 AM
Ahmed did not get one vote the first time the guys voted back Manfredo back. What makes this time around any different? Tarick should be the one to automatically come back with no vote since he is the one that put Juan out of commission. Tarick states clearly in his exit video on the contender website that hes not finished and this is a new beginning for him. That was edited out of the actual show. Im going to be pissed if they dont allow Tarick back. He is the one who deserves it. If it wasnt for him, Juan would not be going home.
