I think it was called the Contender(?)

Sugar Ray was in it as well i believe

That used to be my shyt, it’s what got me interested in boxing and wanting to box

The drama and stories on that show used to be on point, i wonder why it doesn’t come on anymore

I used to love that show too.
Funny thing is I think I saw commercial for it the other day, I think there's a new season coming on some channel called EPIX(or something like that).

I usually don’t watch reality shows, but I liked this one. No bs your skills determine if you go home or not. Sergio had me hyped, but his style just didn’t work against real competition

Was impressive that so many of those guys went on to be real competitors and win titles tho (Sakio Bika, Cornelius Bundrage, Peter Manfredo Jr., Sergio Mora). Pretty legit for a reality show

I was proud to see the homie putting in work...I'm from the same hood as K9 ....he older than me by about 4-5 years..use to go to Northland mall and hustle candy....

Bika/Codrington finale :wow:

The show was so good, that at least 10 of the contenders either got big names or world title fights later on in their career.

SRL skipping work, how the contenders like :ohhh:

That Philly breh from season 1 who killed himself:mjcry:

Won the IBO and NABF titles in 2010, and fought for (but lost) the WBC title against Chavez Jr. the next year. Keeping a winning record is hard as hell on its own, but winning and competing for multiple titles is a fukkin accomplishment breh

yeah he kept a winning record...but those are minor titles..he didnt beat anyone....the best opponents he faced beat him without difficulty (Lacy, Calzaghe, Chavez Jr, Bika)

the other 3 at least became legit world champs
