I've heard that its the main fight, the bronze medal fight between Alphonso and Jesse, and I'm sure they will include highlights from these fan favorite fights from today.

Round 2 of the Brent-Jeff fight was good stuff. Lots of big punches landed.

Jeff takes down Brent in a split decision. I'm still trying to figure out why that wasn't unanimous.

From TitanTV.com

The season ends with two contenders left standing, one of whom will walk away with $1 million following tonight's championship bout, telecast from Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Preceding the final match: the "battle for the bronze," pitting the two losing semifinalists against each other.

Anthony literally picked up Ishe on his back and almost flipped him. That was a pretty dirty fight by #1 daddy. Ishe was fighting very good though.


2 for 2 on predictions.

Missed the last 3 rounds as my computer froze up, but wasn't much of a fight anyway.

Not going to bother with the 3rd one as I don't like or dislike either fighter and need to get to work.

Anyone catch what the payday was for each of these fan favorite fighters. Sly or someone said it but I didn't totally hear it. I thought I heard 75k but not for sure.

Just caught the Ishe vs. Bonsante fight. Man, Ishe gave Bonsante a major butt-whipping. Ishe was freakin' shredded. He was so much bigger during this fight than he was on the show. Ishe looked like a solid middleweight tonight. In the past Ishe has been more of a light middleweight/welterweight.

Ishe rocked #1 Daddy with some bombs. The commentators were right on when they said that Ishe uses his body to punch whereas #1 Daddy used all arms.

I loved how #1 Daddy was so dirty...all those rabbit punches then he tried flipping him.

At least Bonsante was gracious in defeat. He knew that he got schooled by the better fighter so he gave Ishe his props.

Ishe's hat was great: "I'm the #1 Daddy"

I also thought it was hilarious how #1 Daddy's Trainer kept telling the Contender Trainer to get out of there.

I think I saw Ahmed congratulating Ishe in his corner...I thought that was surprising.

Ishe was always my favorite fighter and I still think that he was the best fighter in the competition. If that fight with Sergio was 7 rounds instead of 5, Ishe would be the champion tonight.

Ishe = best fighter in the show. Sergio was rocked a lot in his fight with Ishe. He was just running towards the end. 7 round fight = dead snake.

Anyone know of any software to download these streams? I've tried NetTransport and Streambox VCR but I can't get them with either. Looks like you need a username / password..

I hate watching streaming vids...
