Ya the series has been over here for a few months now. I really liked it, one of the best reality shows that came out. I'll talk more about it later but I'm off to sleep.

Here in the U.S the second season starts in April, or May, can't remember exactly... Anyone see the re-match fights? That was a joke, bad calls for the fights, certain people should've won, and they did in my book.

I watched a few episodes here and there. Really was a pretty good show, better than the Ultimate Fighter. In The Contender these guys went like their lives depended on winning. They showed heart.

My favorite fighter didn't win sadly.
