    wait never mind got it for everyone:

    One of the most built up contestants on the boxing reality show “The Next Great Champ” was beaten and eliminated from the competition tonight. Otis “Triple O.G.” Griffin was taken out by the most experienced professional on the show, Jimmy “Marvelous” Mince, who is 4-0 with 4 KOs. The fight went the four round distance resulting in a split decision. One judge scored every round for Griffin, but the others had it 39-37 for Mince.

    The show focused on Griffin and Mince from the start. It showed Griffin buried in a bible portraying him as a man deeply devoted to his faith. Also, an angry side of Griffin was seen where he is known to have trouble controlling his anger. At one point he and Fred “Boom Boom” Bachmann exchanged words in a very heated conversation. Griffin threatened to knock his head off and Bachmann responded letting him know he was not scared of him. Later Bachmann was seen talking to members of the show staff telling them he did not feel safe. He then left to contemplate if he will remain on the show.

    Mince did very poorly in the first two of the weekly competitions, but won the third. He was unable to participate this time because he was feeling sick. He said he was week and had trouble catching his breath. He may have had some type of bacterial virus.

    Gil “The General” Zaragoza also received some attention. He knew that if he did not win the competition this week, the members of the winner’s circle would choose for him to fight for survival. If he had to fight, Zaragoza wanted to fight for $25,000 instead of just his survival.

    The competition was one to test body conditioning. The contestants had to shovel sand into a bag and run it a certain distance to a barrel resting on the end of a seesaw offset by a counter weight. If they could fill up enough of the bucket so that it touched the ground, they would win $10,000 and be ranked #1 for the week. Griffin put up a good showing, but Zaragoza was the winner.

    Oscar De La Hoya, Lou Duva and Tommy Brooks chose Griffin as the #2 ranked contender. Due to the shrinking amount of contestants, nobody else was ranked. The winner’s circle, made up of those who have won their matches in past shows, had to choose the lowest ranked fighter who would be getting in the ring just to survive.

    Previous winners, David “Danger” Pareja, Bachmann and Rene “Lone Star” Armijo Jr. ended up selecting the ailing Mince. Then the trainers chose his opponent who ended up being Griffin.

    Each had their moments in the fight. Griffin landed some good shots, especially to the body, but often missed lunging punches from a distance. Mince used his experience and found the openings in Griffin’s suspect defense.

    The fights are not shown in their entirety, so they are impossible to score at home. One judge saw it 40-36 for Griffin and the others saw Mince take it 39-37. Griffin was sure he had won the fight and felt robbed of $25,000 and his right to be on the show.

    The teaser for the next episode, which takes place Friday October 22, implied that Griffin might find his way back on the show somehow. It also left open the fate of Bachmann.

      Big, Bad Otis

      He lost to Jimmy, who happened to be sick, and was chosen by the previous winners. Otis wasn't a good boxer at all, he had a few decent shots, but has no real skill.

                    Otis looked crummy in the ring then after he lost his sister and him were being total cry babies about it. I hope ne never comes back on the show, or if he does, its to fight Fred to see who gets to stay in the house. That would be cool.

                    I hop Rene gets KOed. Hes a punk ass for picking Mence to fihgt this week when he was sick. Mince should knock his punk ass out now. Rene also has a bad attitude. I cant figure out who I hate more now, Rene or the jail guy who won the competition.
