I like Manfredo too. Go Peter!

I also like Ishii Smith. I can't remember his name but the guy who won last week was cool too.

The following post was edited by me because again my rude azz forgot to welcome you to the forum before replying to your thread.

My bad

Hello contender girl welcome to the forum. Welcome, to you and any other new bodies cruzing in Waaasssssaaapppppp!


I personaly do not hate Peter Manfredo. I just pick on him to keep the forum going with yada, yada, yada and some blah, blah, blah.

I do think it is unfair. No one else will be getting a third chance at this. Yes I said third chance.

There is another show called The Ultimate Fighter. I have only seen it twice since it has aired.
The ironic thing about it was that the both times I tuned in to watch the show it was some crazy kid with red dyed hair getting his azz kicked. He got beat, he cried like a baby then for some reason he came back and got beat again and he cried like a 5 year old. LOL
From the looks of things the guy that beat him the first time was not happy to see chucky return. <----(Kid with red hair) I am sure Alfonso is/was not to happy either.

I hope that Manfredo gets beat again. I have read rumors
(So called spoilers) That Manfredo fights and barely wins his next fight.
I also read that it will be Gomez that takes him out in the finals in what is another close fight. Again these are not confirmed or varified reports as I am just like you a fan with no connections.

In closing..... Did Jonathan Reid not give all he had? Did not Ahmed Kahdour give it all he had? Why not bring them all back and have them do a challenge between the three of them? That would be more honorable. Make them earn there way back in. Not just come strolling back like it's the thing to do.

If the show goes for season two? Is it safe to say that another boxer can some how poison his enemy and thus have him eliminated and then maybe bring back a friend? LOL
If there is a season two they better have back up boxers or something.

Did the other boxers pick Manfredo because he aint all that? Do the rest think they can beat him? It sure looks that way. I know I would not vote back some one I saw as a threat to me.

Peace.

There is a clip about the selection on Yahoo! I see that I'm going to have to start posting an analyis of the video clips here pretty soon, since I seem to be the only one watching them.

Here's what happens: At the West dinner with Sugar Ray, Jackie, and an older black man who must be the trainer (edited to add: it's Prentice Byrd, who is the "gym manager" ... and also the matchmaker of record ... and also part of Emanuel Steward's Kronk group in Detroit from the late 70s to the early 90s), the subject of whom to bring back comes up. Sergio argues that it's a mistake to bring back a guy who's "27-1," because he and Miguel and Joey have less fights than anyone else in the whole competition. Jackie shoots back, "Records don't fight. It's just a piece of paper." Sugar Ray says that everyone can fight; the key is not questioning your own ability or "you've already lost."

Jackie calls for a vote between the three of them. Joey says that there are only two: "Ahmed don't count." Jackie takes the vote for Jonathan. Five vote for him. Joey says, "I want the preacher." Anthony says, "I vote for Jonathan. Four kids, one on the way. Good Christian guy. Nothing wrong. Bring him back, give him a second chance." In a confessional, Ishe says that he thinks Jonathan will win because "people respect him as a man."

Ishe turns to Prentice Byrd (who is seated next to Ishe) and asks, "If you were one of the 12, who would you vote for?" Without hesitating, Prentice says, "Peter." He then speaks in favor of Peter. "I think Peter got screwed, more or less --" "He got whupped!" interjects Ishe. Prentice continues, "When Alfonso picked him, it was a total shock. I thought the fight was over with the pick. Then he had to drop that weight..."

At that point, Sugar Ray interjects, "That is so much bulls--t. He was a fighter. He knows why he's here. He should've been in shape. He should've made weight." Prentice replies, "I'm not saying he shouldn't have been in shape. But you have to remember. The alternate came in and picked him. No one else would have." The discussion fizzles out after that, and Jackie says, "Don't forget, the East team gets to vote also. Who do you think they're gonna pick?"

Cut to the East eating in the communal room (without Jimmy). Najai says to the others, "I think everybody just had enough of Ahmed." Brett says, "Manfredo didn't really get a chance." Najai says, "That was his first time seeing defeat." In a confessional, Najai says that it's a good chance to bring Peter back.

So, in the end, the East apparently voted unanimously for Peter, and the West split down the middle, with Jonathan losing one of the votes that he had in the first vote. But not one of them discussed whether they thought he or Jonathan would be easier to beat; rather, the discussion came down to Jonathan's character versus Peter's quick departure. (Well, they may have discussed who was easier to beat, but not in the edited clips!)

***This clip teaches us something that Mark Burnett decided not to tell us. Alfonso was the alternate! Lord only knows what happened to the person he replaced. But that might explain why Burnett didn't have an alternate ready when Jeff became ill and instead had to bring a defeated boxer back.***

>In closing..... Did Jonathan Reid not give all he had?

It seemed like everyone liked Jonathan. It was more a focus on Peter's quick out than on any lack within Jonathan.

>Did not Ahmed Kahdour give it all he had?

If the producers had brought Ahmed back, I think the other boxers would've beaten THEM up.

Knowing how MB loves irony, I am amazed he didn't tell us Alfonso was the alternate! Think of the underdog role he could have played up!

Thank you AyaK for the information I am on dial up and I dont have enough juice to handle the streamline vids If not, I too would be watching them But I can't

So any information regarding the Contender show is fine with me.

If Manfredo wins the whole thing, who else will be pissed?

He is a talented fighter no doubt, but it just isn't fair to the other guys in the spirit of the show.
