Default The Contender US vs UK (may contain spoilers)

First thing we need to establish, is when this is being aired in our respective nations.

In the UK, it's on at 9pm GMT

So far, the only media coverage I've seen, has been about American fighters from the last series of Contender.
If I remember rightly, Brinkely, Alfonso and Umbridge are amongst those taking part.
I'm a little puzzled, as I don't know who's representing the UK.
There's been no mention of them in the adverts.

I could probably search it out on the net, but I don't want to spoil any surprises tonight.

That's one fight out of six, to the UK.

Wright(US) vs Smalls(UK)

Went for the full 8 rounds.
Smalls, notoriously awkward, basically didn't allow wright to get into any kind of rhythm.
Only in the 8th did Wright manage to time Smalls, very nearly finishing it there and then.
If Wright had listened to his corner earlier on, it would have been a very different result.
Overall, it was a poor spectacle.

No one cares about your lame attempt at a Play-by-play.

Yeah but we brist are always taken too lightly. Fair enough the americans won 4 - 2. We need to train more fighters with a killer instinct.
