Sergio has a website

Doesn't look like he has done much boxing since winning.....

Peter should never have been allowed back in after he was beat earlier in the series. Sergio's website is out of date, he has fought numerous times and is still undefeated although he did get knocked down once in a recent fight. There is something on one of the espn websites which has shown progress on the fighters. Big mouth Jessie has suffered quite a few defeats since the contender (he moved up to light heavyweight I think)
I will try to find the link later when at home.

I didn't at first

Peter came from a strong boxing background, his father had trained him for years, and he was already ranked

Sergio on the other hand, came from nothing & I slowly started to warm to him, so much so that i was gald he won.

Peter (as good as he is) - walks in the ring with a cocky arrogant attitude like so many boxers now a days (look at Amir!)

Was gutted that black guy shot himself after the disapointment of loosing (cant remember his name)

Who can forget Alfonso either!

Then there was the cocky, arsehole Ahmed (what a tosser!)

Be interesting to see what these new guys are all about later.....

I box, both my trainer & I will no doubt be watching & discussing this at the gym on Sat morning (dont have time to train during the week!)

Yeah, wasn't keen on Ishe tho......

Skilled fighter, just had the usual "I'm gonna knock you out" attitude, then got beaten.....FOOL

Quiet ones are always the worst.....

An interesting start last night, looks like some good characters may appear...

I can't help thinking if Clark hadn't danced around and showboated so much he would have had K9 in the last round...! And just how big is K9 !! He looks like he's in a different league than all the others....

Roll on next week....

I forgot about this. Never got around to watching the last series. Anyone know if last nights episode is to be repeated?

Cheers,
Simon

last year they were repeated on itv 1 on a friday late at night. Miss it, miss out (going back to the old alive and kicking days there)

Yeah they said they were welterweights. K9 welterweight my ****, the guy is huge. He fought a lot better than the impression he gave in the training ring. Glad he beat mike though as he was out of order in the way he treated k9. I just wished that K9 knocked the fool out so he didnt get back up until after the count.
Mike Clark, he was the one who was a champion as well. Bet loads of people were queing up to fight him as he was poor to average at best.
K9 wont win it though as I get the impression it is easy to mess his head up, bit of talking and backchat in the ring and he will be in pieces swinging and missing wildy so you just take pop shots with the jab to dismantle him.

K9’s a big guy, no doubt there – Has a weird style tho – Need to learn to keep his chin down and not blink so much! That Mike was an absolute arsehole! He may be Former “International Boxing Council World Champion” but I think he seriously under estimated his opponent! K9’s a beast, but I don’t think he’ll win. K9 did well in the fight, more so in the last round, Mike wasn’t used to that sort of power that’s for sure!

They’ll all trash talk each other I bet…..

The guy to watch out for is EBO – the man’s a machine! I’ve seen a few of his fights before, very promising, didn’t realize he was in this until Monday night – Glued now!
