The Contender Final Episode Thread

I was thinking the same, but hes only 23, and considering how he came back after what Allen Greene did to him, which i believe was worse, i think Jaidon will come back just fine. I know that KO against Green didn't look good it was only a few punches. This fight against Bika he had his brain rattled quite a few times which could hurt him in the long run. When you look at the guys that died or seriously hurt it was because of the amount of punishment they took, not just one punch.

I cringed when she came on. And I too don't think Jaidon will be the same after this he took so much punishment. I was thinking the same, but hes only 23, and considering how he came back after what Allen Greene did to him, which i believe was worse, i think Jaidon will come back just fine.

Sakio's wife is tough to look at. I cringed when she came on. And I too don't think Jaidon will be the same after this he took so much punishment.

Let me make sure I understand: You're advising the superior boxer not to stand toe-to-toe and slug, but instead to use his better boxing skills to outpoint his opponent? I see where this one is going... Who's the chick in the avi I like it when girls chose to just wear paint as an outfit.

Shooot, alot of the drama was cringing every time Jaidon got hit and think it's over but he showed so much heart and determination. He's got nothing to be ashamed of but USA4life is right, he needs a long rest and recovery. I don't know what was worse on his health. A sudden, violent knockout. Or a brutal, long fight followed by a knockout. I don't think he will be the same in his next fight....or possibly ever again boxing wise. But on another note, Sakio is strong yes. But maybe we are over-rating his punching power.

If he boxed he would have won comfortably but it seems he was out for an agenda and thta was to knock Bika's block off. i didnt think so. i thought he would have been more agressive after he kd's bika if he was being aggressive. i thought it was just a case of him getting pinned on the ropes alot

If he boxed he would have won comfortably but it seems he was out for an agenda and thta was to knock Bika's block off. exactly what I meant.....but he is still trying to prove something after the KO to Green....now he has another KO to explain without actually using the gift god gave him....and thats skill.....Codrington could pull off the same shit Taylor did if he fought smart and cowardly...which he didn;t......and at this point in his career it was stupid.he would have been highly regarded had he just outpointed Bika.

I think it's another classic case of....yeah Codrington was the better technical fighter but like most that fit that bill didn't have the dig down deep grit to close the show.....Because he is still undecided whether he's going to spend the rest of career trying to makeup not just 1 but now 2 KO losses when he should just use his natural born abilitiy to methodically pick these cats apart like his potenial shows he could.

made mistake of goin to war with a sloppy puncher.. all jaidon had ot do was box and move to his right.. it would of been less exciting, but would of won.. I can understand he felt he had to proove something.. And he did with that great knockdown.. but in the end its about the win

I think that Jaidon needs a lot of time off. He will end up in the hospital tonight. He took a lot of punches and had no legs in the last few rounds

Great fucking Fight!!!! Sad to see Jaidon lose, He should have took a knee or held on for dear life. i know.. few thoughts i thought jaidon didnt fight smart and fought extremely cautious... it seemmed he was holding back after he scored the first knockdown. also i was thinkin what would happen if he fought soliman... i think he would get demolished by the pressure and akwardness... look at bikas face i thought codrington was landing much cleaner punches allthough i agree bika was winning the fight. everytime codrington got hit (even partially) i got worried for a ko. is his chin really that bad?

how much money does the runner up get? He aint got no money in the bank.

Jaidon needs a long break after this fight, he needs to take care of himself seriously. No kidding, both men need some time to take off.

I can't understand one damn word Bika says. Those subtitles during the show were a huge help.

How is Jaidon's face not completely messed up. He took some huge shots, but he doesn't sound all right though, he still seems somewhat out of it. I was thinking the same thing, all he's got is a little black n blue eye.

brian kenny's trying to act like he understands what sakio's saying lol

Nice one that's gonna have me laughing for days. I aim to please.
