Boxing : The Contender Recaps
Troy Ross is the NEW Contender Champion! Canada's Troy Ross proved that the two knockouts he administered to his opponents during The Contender tournament were no fluke. A knockout with each hand deemed him a really tough customer. And so he was! Feb 26, 2009 - 12:44:40 PM Contender four, week 10, round two - Ehikhamenor and Hoye move into semi-finals We had another double-header this week, as round two came to a close. There are no members of the Blue Team left. Now the fighters must face off with men that they have lived in the same room with over the past several weeks. Feb 13, 2009 - 6:59:12 PM Contender four, week nine, round two - AK shoots down Escalera Alfredo Escalera faced off with AK Laleye. But before that action, Ryan Coyne was sent home due to the cut over his eye, and tempers flare over who should be invited back in his place. Feb 5, 2009 - 11:44:36 PM Two wins, two TKOs for Ross We have moved into the second round of The Contender. There are no more teams now; it becomes every man for himself. The first fight of round two is between Felix Cora, Jr. and Troy Ross. Jan 29, 2009 - 8:38:05 PM Contender four-Week seven (fight seven); Rico Hoye moves into the semi-finals We saw two fights on the latest Contender. In the first one, Mike Alexander fought a good battle, but in the end it was Rico Hoye who moved into the semi-final round. Jan 22, 2009 - 11:39:49 PM Contender four - Week six; Tauasa suffers first KO With three fights left in round one, things are getting interesting. This week's episode saw friends become foes, a big TKO, and another fight sealed for the second round. Jan 15, 2009 - 11:41:07 PM Hino rings the bell of "Ding-A-Ling Man" With the Gold Team once again in control, the decision was made that Hino would fight next. But surprisingly, he did not pick Ryan Coyne, the one who has gotten under his skin. Instead, he picked the hard-hitting Darnell Wilson. Jan 9, 2009 - 3:04:55 AM Contender, week four - Gold and blue tied at two each The fourth episode of The Contender saw the Gold Team win again to tie with Blue at two wins each. Deon Elam was responsible for giving Team Gold their second victory in a fight that was not as easy as Elam had predicted. Jan 2, 2009 - 3:34:12 AM Contender four; week three - Boxer vs. slugger The third week of competition brought by far the most active fight we have seen, and at the end of the series it will probably still remain one of the most energetic match-ups. Dec 18, 2008 - 11:34:48 PM Contender, week two - Fight two, again to Blue The second week of Contender saw the Blue Team once again victorious. Alfredo Escalera, Jr. faced off against Jon Schneider in this fight, and while it was not as exciting as last weeks, Escalera showed he has some hitting power. Dec 12, 2008 - 2:08:56 AM
