I like the "Rocky" style the contender has, I mean every other fight I watch isnt like that. Good show, Im Just getting tired of seeing sergio mora there sitting next to Sugar Ray. Mora hasnt accomplished Crap in Boxing besides Becoming a Reality show star.
The Ultimate Fighter plays the whole fight, and that show is wildly successful. Sometimes the fights are boring and lack drama, yet people still watch. Its just too bad The Contender tries to appeal to a whole different audience. Particularly women.
its a 15 minute max fight ... is that too long to put into the episode? thats all im saying.
sure they have the full fights the NEXT day
but is it completly unreasonable to ask to put a maximum 15 minute fight into an HOUR show?
What do they do in the episode that is so important?
"the casual fan likes the drama, the music, the slo mo stuff."
really? how many people on here enjoy slow motion?
I appreciate it in MOVIES .. but in a boxing fight? spare me.
and in this episode the slow mo was particularly stupid .. especially the first time they used it .. when both fighters MISSED their shots
slow mo, music ... HBO and Showtime don't need it during the fights .. why does the contender?
granted the Contender is improving .. but I like the boxing
all that extra pizzaz .. like the slow mo, music, drama
save that shit for Hollywood.
dude..you're a hardcore fan. IF it drained the show so much that most people didn't like it, they wouldn't do it. The casual fan likes the drama, the music, the slo mo stuff. The ratings are pretty clear. This show outrates FNF by like two to one. And if it bothers you, they have the option for you tomorrow.
If it werent for that stupid fucking website, I might have been into the fight. I'm still tired of the highlights, but they arent as bad as they used ot be.
im just saying .... for an HOUR show you would think they could manage their time well enough
these are five rounds fights ... at a max it would take 15 minutes ..... (limit the corner time)
yeah sure I can see the whole fight tomorrow
but why not put it on the episode in the first place
its called time management .. between the hyping up of the fights and commercials .. it really drains the show.
McCrary must just have load up power. ITs the same exact thing that happened to Green. He looked tired, and like he was getting killed, and then WHAMO! Bika took it better than glass-jawed Green though.
Do we really need to see a SLOWWWW MOTIONNNN shot
of both guys missing punches? (i believe it was in 1st or 2nd round)
crap like ^ is why people don't take Contender seriously
not to mention results were already leaked
killing the suspense of it.
