    Make the show 15 minutes longer and show the actual fight. It was fine the first season. The second season it bothered the hell out of me.

        I couldn't watch season 2 that much.


        If they go with Heavy's sounds new, sounds good.

        I'm sure they would have done that initially if there was a talent pool.

        Hopefully they do look abroad or whatever's necsessary..

              They need some real unknowns, I mean in the second season they had guys on there who had titles shots, I think even one of them used to be a title holder.

              I think they should really look for up and coming prospects, real fighters looking for a second shot, and unknowns.

              They looked for fighters with good records and experience in season 2. I want to see freaking Rocky out there or some crap, I guy wiht like 15 losses but young enough to still make a run...

              Maybe that doesn't happen in real life, but it should.

                Yeah, it would be interesting to see if they could make the heavies look interesting to the casual boxing fan.

                  If they did the heavyweights that would be a huge boost to that division, and therefore to all of boxing. They definately might have to look overseas for some talent though. I was thinking of going to a casting call for the Contender. I wouldn't have even a remote chance of making it (I'm not even a professional fighter) but I think it would be a lot of fun to observe.

                    Techniclly they dont even have too, one solid minute of action per round will be enough for them to make it seem extremly exciting.
