The title of this thread is depressing alone, the last contender was awesome.

This makes me wish the fights were 8 rounds instead of 5.

If O'Neill Bell enters this then that really shows how big the show's become. I mean, he should be thinking about world title fights but instead he goes on this presumably to boost his profile. Doesnt it also kinda go against the idea of the show being to find a 'Contender'?!

yea they can get good cruiserweights too. this will be there best season by far. IF ITS NOT COMMENTATED BY THE HORRIBLE VERSUS PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

[Kball15]

woooooooooooow that is an AMAZING list. Almost ALL entertaining fights. AND its at cruiserweight, which is the most explosive weight to fight at IMO. All those guys come to the ring in good to great shape.

Dude had david haye on ***** street a couple of times in there fight, that fight just shows that david haye isn't invincible even though he came back to knock o'neil out. If he were a better finisher he probably would have put a second loss on Haye's record

Wow what an amazing roster if true. I hope so. Crusier isn't a bad division at all. It's probably really underrated, even with Haye leaving. I wish Mormeck would be on the show though. Haven't heard anything from him in a while.

O'Neil Bell? You mean the dude that quit against Adamek when the going got rough?
He's not even a contender anymore after that piss-poor showing.

People don't know **** about cruiserweights nor show much interest, even on here.

I think the Cruiserweight Division is stacked full of untapped talent and is a great division to find real power and sensational KO's in... "The Contender" is about gathering relatively unknown, and sometimes almost completely unknown fighters that really have what it takes to be World Class Boxers, giving them a shot at an unbelievably huge purse, and changing lives. Sergio Mora has proved that you can turn a "Contender Title" into a "World Title" if you keep on working hard at achieving your goal... It's a really good thing for boxing, and I think the Cruiserweights could be a great thing for The Contender... Add in the fact that this season will take place in Singapore, and will host International Competition; I think this will definitely be the best season of The Contender yet!

The list of potential Cruiserweights is sick... O'Neal Bell (26-3-1, 24ko's), Vadim Tokarev (24-1-1, 17ko's), B.J. Flores (21-0-1, 13ko's), Darnell "Ding-A-Ling Man" Wilson (23-7-3 20ko's), Matt Godfrey (16-1, 9ko's), Johnathon Banks (19-0, 14ko's), Aaron Williams (17-1-1, 12ko's), Shawn Hawk (16-0-1, 14ko's), Emmanuel Nwodo (22-4-0, 18ko's) , Ola Afolabi (12-1-3, 5ko's), Ehinomen Ehikhamenor (12-3-0, 7ko's) and Mike Alexander (12-2-0, 8ko's)

A worthy unknown Cruiserweight I'd throw into the mix is Troy Ross (17-1-0 12ko's)...
He's a 2 time Olympian, is the current Commonwealth Cruiserweight Champion, is currently ranked 20th in the World on BoxRec, you may have seen him acting as John Henry Lewis in the movie "Cinderella Man", or as a young Samuel L. Jackson in "Resurrecting the Champ", and the guy makes a perfect Contender as I bet most of you have never heard of the him...
