About 'espn sports tv'|Jim Rome’s ESPN Contract is Up, and He’s Taking His TV Show to the CBS Sports Network [UPDATE]








The               third               season               of               The               Contender               is               now               underway,               airing               at               10               PM               on               Tuesday               evenings               on               ESPN.

The               show's               first               season               was               shown               on               NBC               however               it               moved               to               the               ESPN,               which               was               a               more               feasible               television               station               due               to               it               being               a               sports               channel               and               the               fact               that               lower               ratings               are               needed               for               sustainability.

The               Contender               is               hosted               by               living               boxing               legend               Sugar               Ray               Leonard               and               is               the               brainchild               of               reality               TV               superstar               Mark               Burnett.

This               season               the               cast               started               with               16               super               middleweight               (168               lb.)               fighters.

All               of               the               fighters               come               to               the               show               hoping               to               earn               the               title               of               "Contender               Champion"               and               the               grand               prize               of               $750,000.

For               seasoned               boxing               fans,               many               of               the               fighters               will               be               familiar.

Fighters               such               as               Sam               Soliman               and               Sakio               Bika               are               longtime               veterans               who               have               challenged               for               world               titles               and               have               been               seen               on               HBO.

Other               fighters               such               as               Jaidon               Codrington               and               Paul               Smith               are               well               known               boxing               prospects,               while               several               other               fighters               fought               for               their               country               in               the               Olympics.
               In               the               first               episode               of               The               Contender               the               16               fighters               underwent               SPARQ               testing,               a               technology               based               series               of               athleticism               tests.

In               addition,               the               fighters               sparred               with               former               Contender               Champion               Sergio               Mora               and               Contender               runner-up               Peter               Manfredo               Jr.

Following               these               trials,               6               of               the               fighters               were               sent               home.

The               reasons               surrounding               these               decisions               ranged               from               being               out               of               boxing               condition               to               getting               cut               in               sparring.

The               remaining               10               fighters               were               divided               into               two               teams,               each               headed               by               notable               trainers               in               the               boxing               world.

The               first               is               Pepe               Correa,               who               at               one               point               trained               Sugar               Ray               Leonard               himself.

The               second               boxing               trainer               for               this               season               of               The               Contender               is               Buddy               McGirt,               a               former               pro               fighter               and               championship               winner               who               now               trains               many               top               names.
               Comedian               and               former               boxing               trainer               Adam               Corolla               made               a               guest               appearance               in               the               first               episode.

In               the               second               episode,               boxing               superstar               and               promoter               Oscar               De               La               Hoya,               "The               Golden               Boy",               made               an               appearance               with               several               of               his               fighters               (who               happen               to               be               scheduled               to               fighter               several               of               The               Contender               alums).

He               made               a               friendly               wager               with               Sugar               Ray               Leonard               that               whoever's               fighters               lost               would               have               to               play               the               part               of               ring               card               girl               during               one               of               that               evening's               bouts.

Fighter               Henry               Buchanan               had               to               leave               the               show               and               in               his               place               one               of               the               eliminated               fighters,               Miguel               Hernandez,               was               given               a               second               chance.

The               second               episode               featured               the               first               fight,               which               was               a               grudge               match               between               two               fighters               who               had               previously               fought               in               the               amateurs,               Jaidon               Codrington               and               Brian               Vera.

While               both               fighters               seemed               to               have               their               moments,               the               winner               of               the               opening               Contender               fight               was               Codrington,               by               second               round               knockout.
               The               biggest               fault               with               The               Contender               has               been               the               show's               attempts               to               straddle               the               lines               between               appealing               to               hardcore               boxing               fans               and               other               viewers.

The               fights               shown               are               heavily               edited               for               time               and               effects               are               added               in               such               as               sounds               and               slow               motion.

During               the               fights               there               are               cutaways               to               people               in               the               crowd               and               it's               hard               to               get               a               feel               for               who               is               actually               winning               the               fight               without               seeing               the               whole               boxing               match.

ESPN               clearly               tries               to               get               viewers               to               become               emotionally               attached               to               the               fighters               as               they               introduce               their               family               members               and               spend               plenty               of               time               showing               the               fighters               talk               about               their               dreams,               goals               and               aspirations.

While               that               remains               unchanged               in               The               Contender,               the               positive               for               true               boxing               fans               is               that               ESPN               will               be               airing               the               intact               fights               afterwards               on               one               of               their               networks.
               Mora,               Manfredo               and               Alphonso               Gomez,               have               all               reached               great               heights               of               fame               and               popularity               that               are               unusual               for               the               normal               boxing               star.

In               that               way,               The               Contender               has               been               great               for               boxing               as               it               gives               the               spotlight               to               more               fighters               who               wouldn't               normally               get               it.

The               reverse               to               that               is               that               these               fighters               are               not               premiere               fighters               and               are               therefore               getting               undeserved               credit               while               more               accomplished               fighters               go               unnoticed.

Boxing               needs               a               lot               more               help               than               The               Contender               can               provide               (read               more               about               boxing               and               the               challenges               the               sport               faces               right               here)               but               any               time               spent               in               the               spotlight               that               doesn't               circle               around               one               of               Mike               Tyson's               arrests               is               a               good               thing.

The               debate               in               hardcore               boxing               circles               will               continue               for               The               Contender,               but               both               boxing               fans,               reality               TV               addicts               and               casual               sports               fans               should               tune               in               and               see               how               it               all               unfolds.
