"Anybody know who's coming back?" |
Wow, what another great show!! Any guesses as to what happens next week that one of the boxers has to leave the show? I wonder who it will be and why? More importantly, who will be the eliminated boxer to come back? My guess is that it will be Jonathan Reid -- Amahad and Peter are too threatening to the $1 million dollar prize to be allowed back in (although I'd like nothing more than to see Manfredo Jr back in the mix of things). Any thoughts?

I have no idea who will be coming back. I hope it is Jonathon Reid. What a twist!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I read that spoiler link -- damn, I was really believing that this show WAS "the real deal." I can really see them bringing Manfredo Jr back -- physically, he's the biggest stud of the group; not to mention that his wife was smokin' hot and added to the viewing pleasure for the common male. Even if the show is an inflated version of Rocky VI with less-than-average fighters, it's still pretty entertaining. Nonetheless, it just goes to show that there really is no integrity in show business.

Buck, I think we need to wait and see why someone has to leave before we make the judgement of integrity of the show.

I THINK REID'S FIGHT WAS CLOSE ENOUGH FOR HIM TO RETURN, BUT FOR EXCITING TWIST YOU HAVE TO SAY AMAD. THANKS FOR LENDING A EAR TO "THE NEXT GREAT".....

I think it is ridiculous that they are bringing anyone back. I really liked this show but I will be disappointed if they are giving guys a second chance. How is that fair to anyone else on the show if they allow a fighter back in to compete for the million after the fighter has lost a fight?

I think it would be awful if they brought Ahmed back, for one he did not fight a clean fight, he would not win, and he doens't stand a chance with the more experienced boxers. If they do bring him back it's strictly a ratings grab and I don't know if I would continue watching (lying of course). Hopefully they bring someone back who is worth it, now here is my question. If they bring someone back than would they have to fight again? Or would they be pushed to the final 8. As it doesn't appear that they are having many breaks between fights, as they guys who have previously fought still look beaten up. I am assuming this is day after day. Would it be fair to bring someone back who fought just a few days before and risk having them be chosen to fight again?

I can understand your concern over bringing someone back for the sake of bringing someone back. However, someone leaves unexpectedly and they bring someone back to fill the void.

If you have to fill in a spot bring in someone who is an alternate or something...not someone who has lost. Or work it out so someone gets a bye into the next round...I just hate the idea of bringing back a loser.

...because you really can't do an episode of the show where no one gets eliminated. If you did, no one would watch!

Unfortunately, I heard of that spoiler a long time back, and it appears to be generally assumed as the truth around the LV boxing scene. I'll hold off until I see the circumstances, but for now I have to say, I agree with you. I figure if you're out, you;re out. Bringing someone back doesn't seem right to me.

LAST EDITED ON 03-15-05 AT 03:30 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 03-15-05 AT 03:29 AM (EST) LAST EDITED ON 03-15-05 AT 03:28 AM (EST) LAST EDITED ON 03-15-05 AT 03:26 AM (EST) This kind of reeks of "The Next Great Champ" where Otis came back in after someone else left the show (and ended winning the tournament!) Aside from that, if they bring someone back in as a replacement that's fine with me. Someone made a point about the team-decision making in this. I think it would be unfair to Manfredo and Ahmed because, if them guys were smart, they wouldn't pick either of them. Sure they're a team, but eventually they have to fight one another. This, I hope they realize. But even with that said... It would nice if they voted Jonathan back on the show. He was a cool guy, and a leader...something the East DEFINITELY needs! He provided an almost fatherly, mentor-like presence. He's around my age so maybe I'm biased and I was rooting for him to take the thing but that is besides the point. I do think he was a positive for the team. But most of all, with 4 kids and 1 one the way, he would be most deserving of a chance to earn some extra cash. He really needs it more than the other two. Maybe they should've relied on a lotto-pick 'em, draw a number type set-up. That way it would be plain 'ol "luck of the draw." No questions asked. (Since it's not, I'm still hoping for O.G. Triple O.G.!!!)

Hey this is "Pro Boxing", if you show up over weight..You Lose, (ask PacMan) If you get hurt and cant continue...You Lose, (ask Vitali Klitschko). But! If you get beat you can get a rematch, a second chance. So while im upset that the rumors are true and Manfreod is coming back, and Im going to have to listen to more talk about how great he is for getting whooped by Alfonso (the only real talent he ever got in the ring with) and Im going to have to sit by and watch as he picks one of the lesser or younger fighters to brawl with than later in the show he gets knocked silly by one of the three top guys again. I cant say im that upset they are giving someone a second chance. But hey if it were my show, I would want to shake things up a bit, get say Travis Simms, or a fighter with that type of KO punch. Or maybe have each side East and west vote alone, than let the 2 guys they picked fight to get back on the show, cancel an episode of medium and hold the fight than, nobody watches medium anyways. I hope we learn in episode 4 that the producers saw this as a chance to make the show better and not as an excuse to get one of their favorites back on, but if history tells us anything...well you know. And just for the record I am not going to pick a winner between Erik and Manny, all I know is this should be one of the best fights of the year.

Well, just to go way off-topic here.... It's hard for me to pick against Manny Pacquiao, after the way he dismantled Barrera. This fight should be a brawl, and Erik Morales is a stud, but I have to go with Manny ... despite the psychological drain of not getting to wear his preferred Reyes gloves. But I wouldn't bet any money on my pick. It's too good of a match.

Great now you got me thinking about it, I guess I will have to pick Manny as well, only because he is fun to watch. And Barrera is a huge factor in this fight. LOL it wasn’t off topic, lmao I dropped Manny's name in the post. Alright so we are off topic. This fight has given me an upset stomach, am I a hopeless dweeb? Cant anyone help me? Who has the Lithium - Prozac cocktails? Oh lord my mom was right I am an idiot.

Hope everything works out alright man. Maybe someone will put the fight up on his or her ftp site for you to download and watch later. Let me know. Not that I know anyone that would tape and illegally post copyrighted material. But let me know.

I wonder if they will do it in a similar way as on the ultimate fighter, I liked that. For those who haven't wized up to watching ultimate fighter yet, when one of the fighters got hurt and had to leave, that fighter got to choose which person to bring back in his place, from any of the already eliminated fighters on either team.

Farwestchips- First of all, I thought there was a rule against spoilers here! I didn't want to know that sh*t about Manfredo!!! I'm just gonna have to plug my ears, hum to myself, and act like I didn't hear that. I am holding out hope that the East didn't vote him back on. If they were smart they wouldn't have done that.Now, to Manny-Morales... As far as bettin' money, put it on the underdog if the odds are good enough. This is such a pick 'em fight, that as far as money goes, it would be the only rational thing to do (for a betting line, I'm talking about.) What are the latest odds, anyway? I know Morales was the underdog, last I heard. If he's 3-1 or higher, I would take it. I don't think TOO much stock should be put in Manny's win over M.A.B. Barrera, from what I understand, had a f*cked-up-all the-way-around camp. Nothing went right it seemed, and I think it showed. This is not to take anything away from Manny, though, cuz' I think only him and Morales would've been capable of taking full advantage over that Barrera that night, anyway.

I would love to see Manfredo Jr. come back, I thought for sure he would go far. That fight was surprising. I just pray that Ahmed doesn't come back, though he probably, his attitude and all the tension makes for good t.v.
