The Contender
I'm in shock that Jesse lost. I was tricked. Everything lead me to believe that he was going to KO Sergio. The way they kept focusing on "just one punch," and replaying Sergio saying, "I'll quit if I get knocked out."
I don't have any feeling one way or the other for this episode. It was good and the fight was exciting. I guess I am just reeling from Jesee not winning. The 3rd Place bout between Alfonso and Jesse could be ugly. Sergio and Peter will be a war. I like them both, but I am pulling for Sergio (which means he'll lose). I really hope they agreed to a chop when it got down to the Final Four. |

Re: The Contender
i also thought jesse was going to win, mainly because his character has been developed throughout the show while sergio's hasnt. manfredo's character has also been developed so i thought this was a pattern.
i was really impressed with sergio's boxing in tonight's episode. i dont think manfredo will win. |

Re: The Contender
I assume Vegas is taking bets on the live fight? Anyone going to place a bet?
I like Manfredo. |

Re: The Contender
Boring fight, but it was what I expected. Jesse was just outclassed by a better boxer. I like Sergio on Tuesday, but I think it will be a damn good fight.

Re: The Contender
Minus means he's favored. If you were to bet a $1 on Sergio you would win $1.2. If you bet a $1 on Peter, you would win $.70.

A negative number indicates how much you would have to wager to win $100. A positive number indicates how much you would win if you wagered $100. So if you wagered $100 at -170, you'd win 100/170 x $100 = $58.82, not $70. GoT |

Re: The Contender
When they noticed that "He missed that uppercut" I knew it was over for Jesse. Too bad. I think the third place fight might outshine the championship. I'm also suprised that Manfredo is favored, but I'll be rootin for him to take down the snake.
Time to break out my pimp-daddy vegas-baby black shirt with the leopard stripe bars... Lemme know if you guys see me on TV! tan bars, not blue! |
