For those of us about to start watching the contender on ITV and not downloading from the US.

Good to see Paul Smith in there, Bika and Solimon have both fought for world titles. I think im gonna back Codrington to win it, with it being those 4 in the semis!

whoeve wins this has the best oppurtunity of a contender winner because Calzaghie will be leaving the SM/W division after he beats Kessler, Kessler will probably not fight outside of Denmark for another 3 years after Losing, and Jermain Taylor will not stay at Super Mid for to long as all the big money fights will be at Light Heavy.

Codrington vs Froch for the Undisputed title in 3 years time!

I will be absolutely amazed if any of those guys got any where near a world title shot. Bika has had his chance and Soliman is on the way down, Codrington is a puff and Smith is untested at any level. Those four should make the semi's and I will be cheering Smith on.

WATCHED THE FIRST THREE EPISODES AND THEY ARE SUPERB. a LOT OF THESE GUYS CAN PUNCH SO IM SURE THE FIGHTS WILL BE THE MOST EXCITING YET. i LIKE THE FACT THAT THE FIGHTERS RANGE FROM UNTESTED BUT HUNGRY FIGHTERS SUCH AS PAUL SMITH TO WORLD TITLE CHALLENGERS SUCH AS BIKA AND SOLIMAN. GREAT STUFF

great right hand amazing combo's and great handspeed.

sadly he tires quickly and in the big fights he will wither away. but against manfredo he totally out hustled and outclassed peter.

my money is on bank$....see what i did there :yep

The next ultimate fighter looks much better than any of the contenders have been. Also someone posted the final on boxrec as a topic so I know who's in there... takes the edge off it.

damn...thats downright rude!

i think i'll be avoiding boxrec and continue to download the episodes every wednesday so i can enjoy the shows without knowing the outcome.
