Is this the Australian Contender? Which weight class? Is it up to episode 4 so far?

Finished downloading episode 1. It's the 4th series of the original Contender. This time it's the Cruiserweights.

Thank you for uploading this! :DD

Nope, they're pretty awful so far. Look at someone like Alexander Alexeev in comparison. But I suppose the Cruiserweight division is reasonably weak. Probably not the best division to choose.

As far as entertainment is concerned, it's lacking. What it's lacking is big personalities and big punchers (from the 4 episodes I've seen, maybe it will heat up in the coming episodes).

So much for the "Ding a Ling" man.

Yeah he was disappointing Darnell, good win for the African.
I think if Tuassa doesn't put his hand up soon to fight he's going to have no control over who he's fighting.

I agree, no world beaters, no big punchers, rather disappointed in Darnell he had a good reputation.

Tauasa came across as very likeable. Loved his dancing while training. :P

Unfortunately for lawrence it was a dissapointing loss but an experience he will learn from...

I've only just noticed that he is 29. I'm surprised. I thought he'd be in his thirties.

Troy Ross is the best fighter I've seen so far on the contender, he appears patient and has good speed.

Thanks Maxime. I do like adding them to my video collection, though, so please don't try to convince Ryan to stop. :wink:
