or more likely, none of the americans are really up-and-comers to get excited about

Exactly. Just a bunch of people that lost in the contender fighting up and coming prosperous Brit fighters.

Im sorry is there a Brisish (or English) Contendor? Someone better explain :O:@

[!!! Beowulf !!!]

Robin Reid has been added to the British team. He'll fight Jesse Brinkley in what could be a real mismatch if Reid still has anything left.


Two fighters (one on each side) are still to be announced. Nigel Wright and Cornelius Bundrage still don't have opponents.


Minter, Small and Smith all look rather confident.

Don't know much about "Brinkley", but adding Robin to the team is a real step away from the entire concept of The Contender. Because let's face it, despite being called "Contenders", they're really not, are they? Whereas Reid was - and maybe still is - world class.

Well, they had Steve Forbes in the last series of the Contender, and he was an IBF Champion who may well still be world class.


Robin Reid is still by far the most accomplished boxer on the bill though. Maybe he just isn't earning enough making **** and wanted some more cash?

[Jim_Davis]

Small and Minter are future world champions in my opinion. Is this going to be like a televised series or just an event thing?

Reid will crush the oh so average Brinkley and score a win for the Britts!

Now, if these are all 8-rounders and theres going to be a one-hour show for each match-up, do you think they'll show the whole rounds or highlights?
