we all know what's going to happen. Forrest will be sent home due to the cut and Bobby Southworth will be brought back.
blah blah blah.

that would be good for ratings. Maybe he will act better this time like Leban is doing now.

good for ratings maybe, but bad for the legitimacy and quality of the show.

The whole structure of the show wasn't thought out. Every time Liddle's team wins a fight he loses a fighter to the other team. Some fighters have already fought more than once while others haven't fought at all. It's like they must of expected to get canceled so they figured why sweat the details.

That already went out the window when Leben came back. Atleast there was a controversy as to if Bobby actually lost his fight.

no matter what you say, it's still better than The Contender.

If the shoe fits.
If the Leben Nuthuggers start saying its not fair that Bobby returns, I sure as hell will. I will only get worse if Forrest has to leave and is not allowed to pick a replacement.
However, if Forrest gets a choice to bring someone back, and brings Bobby back, and the Leben fans suck it up, I will publicly apologize to each and every Leben and Team Quest fan on this board.

Lol. Say what you want about The Contender but the structure of the show was better thought out than TUF. But I will continue to watch both.

The difference is that The Contender edits its fights unlike TUF. I'm a fight fan not a drama fan.

I agree the fight editing is a huge blunder on The Contender but it's still a decent show.

Boxing is the best sport in the world, but TUF blows TC out of the water.

Boxing is the daddy of all fighting sports, but that's cool, you're entitled to your oppinion.

Wrestling came before Boxing. And alot of MMA fighters base their jiu jitsu from a wrestling background, like I did. So theres more of the original style of fighting in MMA than there is in Boxing.
Besides, you put a boxer in a ring, and restrict him to his rules, against a MMA fighter whos only restricted to MMA rules, the boxer doesnt stand a chance.
MMA is still growing, and when you dont look at money, or fan attendance, and look at the pure sport itself, I feel MMA is far superior to boxing.

Doesn't it defeat the purpose of bringing these guys back if they aren't causing trouble. If Chris Leben isn't acting like Chris Leben it's not going to equal ratings. Same for Bobby. If you give these guys a lobotomy, then there's no point in bringing them back.

I'd like to see a Bobby Southworth v.s. Mike Swick fight.

I don't know, the best boxing fight I've ever seen blows away the best MMA fight I've ever seen.
That's nothing against MMA though.
I think that if Bobby comes back he'll be alot better. I think he might even apologize to Leben. (maybe) Dana, and Chuck will set him strait and tell him not to act like the dick that was on before.
By the way im a Leben fan and im not bitching.

i like the structure on the contender where if someone wins they get moved into the top 8...in this format all fighters will fight once...it makes it more interesting..
and for anyone who doesnt like boxing...watch Arturo Gatti-Mickey Ward 1...it's what made me like boxing

I totally agree with you ! I am also a Leban fan and hope that Bobby come back and has a chance to redeem himself, Appologizing to Leban and Dana would really help his career, I think that he would have a great chance of winning the WHOLE DAMN THING if he comes back with his head on his shoulders and not on his ASS..

Sportsgenius86, that fight was unbelievable.
The 9th round is the most exciting 3 minutes of combat I've ever seen.

BUMP we totally agree on that. I think that if he does come back he will be smarter like Leben has been

No one should have been eliminated before being allowed to fight. You fight, you lose, your gone. I am a big Leben fan, but it was unfair to bring him back. There should have been a winners circle, so that after 1 win, you were safe until the semi finals, otherwise a winning fighter could have to fight 4 times and then fight a guy in the finals who has not fought at all. Whichever team ended up with the most winners, would have been the winning team. Then the winners would battle it out to determine the finalists.
I just had a thought. Even though Bobby probably will come back. What if Forrest chose Alex to come back. He seemed to be pretty impressed with how he fought. Even though that is really unlikely that would be cool if it did. Forrest didn't aggree when Bobby lost the fight so he will bring him back if he has to leave.

My respect would increase tenfold if Forrest decided to bring Alex back due to his ballsy performance on the last episode. It would be an incredible show of respect to Alex for the improvements he's made while being on the show.

After seeing Forest vs. Alex I have become an Alex fan! It would be nice to see him fight Sam, but it won't happen.

Bobby is a big mouth blabber, as soon as he got eliminated i knew he was coming back, someone i know talks to him on forums and after he got eliminated he said " just watch the show it gets much better, he's not smart enough to hold his contract he's gonna wind up leaking the whole series" im confident he wins the whole thing, its gonna be Southworth lwh, diego/leben mw.

the one thing I hate about the Contender is they have too much drama like they show the fighters family and where they come from. WHO CARES? To me this is a boxing show not who you can feel sorry for because they are broke and can't do anything else. My wife likes the Contender better because of the side section of the family etc. Maybe the Contender is smart by trying to draw the female fanbase as well as the men. The men will watch it because of the boxing and if you add the drama side of things like family life the females watch it. I know my wife watches that show.

This just shows your ignorance. Why don't you actually check the message boards yourself or actually watch the show. Don't comment on something when you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
How can Southworth have already won the whole thing when the LHW and MW finals are live on April 9th.

Southworth's got no heart. Whether he wins the show or not, he'll be an absolute bum in the UFC, despite their pathetically shallow 205 lbs division.

Another intelligent post by a junior member.

[You]
Hey brainiac, your original argument was that Southworth leaks the whole series, including the final result. That's not possible if the final result hasn't happened yet. It's pretty hard to follow your argument logically but then again it's you were speaking about. I'll tell you this one time kid, stay off the drugs.

First of all, we don't even know for sure yet that Forrest is gone. Secondly if he is eliminated let him bring back whomever he wants. I don't care who's there, I care about who is going to win the whole thing.
