    i think kurt Barham is a fighter from maroubra who i have seen twice once on fox and once on a mundine undercard.looks a good fighter but too inexperienced to be a real threat.is a member of the bra boys a maroubra surf gang along with the other characters would make the show more interesting to the casual fan along with your devout muslims,born again christian ex-druggos, nut cases from detention centres.on ability Pittman deserves to be there but is just too ordinary.

    What's wrong with one normal bloke just for a bit of contrast with all the other out-there dudes. Surely a southpaw would also add something to the mix.

    Ability-wise it's a disgrace Pittman isn't included, and that's taking into account his recent ordinary performance on channel ONE. Just doesn't smell quite right IMO...

    My money is on Nader. He can take a punch & knows how to box, something Victor has no clue on. IF you yell left, right, left right to Oganov, he'l think he's crossing a road.

    Shannon Taylor out of the Contender Australia

    Busted his hand in sparring,according to shannon hit his opponents elbow with his follow through, x-rays tomorow looks like hes out for 4-6 weeks.

    Shannon is pretty devasted as he told me he wanted another crack at mundine.

    Not at all. He had good ability but he is a fraud. I'm not dumb though and realise that he is 20 times better than any of the fighters that will be on the Contender show.

    If Pittman enters the comp, I'm changing from Hamden to him to win it. Maybe that will be the final.
