Just read in this week's Boxing News (www.boxingnewsonline.net) that six of the contestants for the third series of The Contender are due to be Brit f.ags to promote a "US vs. UK" vibe, according to Producer Jeff Wald. I guess those Brits will have to come to the States to prove they can make thunderclap noises when they punch.
This is sure to put the cat amongst the proverbial on here, though the weight class has yet to be confirmed.
I've always said: do it with heavyweights. Can you imagine Audley Harrison pretending to be "gangsta" and Danny Williams having a head**** while eating cakes? Throw in Mike Tyson for one last shot at fortune sharing a bunk with Evander Holyfield and you've got a hit series IMO.

There'll probably be beer drinkers from Manchester gatecrashing it.
