The Contender Season 2 starts July 18th on ESPN.

The Confirmed Participants are as follows:

Nick Acevedo - 15-1 (9 KO's)

Gary Balletto - 29-2-2 (25 KO's)

Vinroy Barrett - 21-4 (11 KO's)

Noberto Bravo - 20-10-3 (12 KO's)

Grady Brewer - 18-11 (12 KO's)

Cornelius Bundrage - 21-1 (13 KO's)

Rudy Cisneros - 9-1 (8 KO's)

Michael Clark - 35-3 (16 KO's)

Freddy Curiel - 15-5-2 (6 KO's)

Andre Eason - 15-4 (6 KO's)

Ebo Elder - 22-2 (14 KO's)

Stephen Forbes - 29-3 (9 KO's)

Jeff Fraza - 17-2 (10 KO's).....( Returning from season 1 where he left due to a injury)

Michael Stewart - 38-4-2 (22 KO's)

Aaron Torres - 14-2 (6 KO's)

Walter Wright - 10-1 (5 KO's)


This season will obviously be a bit different. The fighters in most cases are a lot more expierienced. The let down of some of this fighters is that Lots of them are coming out of retirement for this show, some fighters havnt fought in 2,3,4 years!

The Favourites from my Knowledge would be as follows(if i had to pick the final 4):

Michael Clark ( charismatic, good looking experienced boxer)

Ebo Elder (scary, experienced fighter, has nothing to lose)

Stephen Forbes ( very experienced, has faced very tough opposition)

Michael Stewart ( Most experienced, very talented boxer)

and a fighter i wouldnt forget about is the 4 year rusty Gary Balletto, Hes a very powerful hitter, lets see if he can shake off the rust.

That and stop with the Rocky style slow motion. It makes me cringe.

I guess im the only one who DID like the editing. Thought it made the fights more exciting with highlight-like short versions....well, start flaming y'all!
