Aye 5 v 5 if I remember right, we got hammered off the Yanks and I'm pretty sure our only winner was Anthony "Isis" Small
My mate fought K9 Bundradge on this show. Thought he'd have outboxed him but he had a rib injury.
Colin McNeil wasn't it mate?
That's right mate. I was at the fight where he stiffened Billy big time Gary Young in the first. Was glorious

On the Arthur v Lvghtyanjko (

) undercard. Arthur was having some problems with him early on. Good card that actually.

Nigel Wright is a nice guy and was a lifeguard in his day job..... he was also aba champ, commonwealth rep and very good pro. Basically, a lot better than most on The Contender! Not sure if his family are dodgy, I’d be surprised. Quite the opposite if anything. Maybe you’re mixing him up with Brad Saunders. His family are not to be messed with in that area, and that’s putting it politely!

Bradley, BJS and Funtime Frankie must've been fun to look after at the 2008 Olympics over in Beijing
In all fairness Bradley's always came across as a sound lad

Yes you can watch it for free on EPIX.com, you just need an American IP address which you can get by using a vpn.

Thanks for epix.com info. It lets me watch episode 1 for free but then I need to sign up for trial to get episode 2 but that will only last 14 days. I may be doing something wrong though...
Does anyone know way we can watch the series in the UK?
