Yeah, Juan is a welterweight (147) much like Alphonso is.

Also, Sergio is by far the least muscular of the remaining fighters. Sergio & Alphonso are the fighters that have to rely solely on boxing skills as neither is going to overpower any of the other fighters.

I forgot to comment that Jesse is really growing on me. He's a really nice guy and it's nice that he's watching out for Joey like a lil brother.

Am I the only one who sees the logic in bringing back Ahmed???

The best 3 fighters left are IMO, and I believe in the opinion of the remaining fighters, are, in order: 1)Peter Manfredo, 2)Ishe Smith, 3)Jesse Brinkley. If you are still standing why not try to bring back a fighter who, though clearly beatable, has the ability to get into the #2 contender's head? Also I don't think Ishe is very popular among the rest of the fighters - another reason to mess with his head.

As far as Ahmed's skills, he looked great when sparring, but didn't show me much in his first fight with Ishe.

It would have also made sense to bring back Jimmy Lange, seeing as he lost to the lowest ranked remaining fighter, or Jonathan Reid, as it seems he was the best of the eliminated fighters... but who wants to face him again? If they wanted to fight the best it would've been him coming back.

I hated Ahmed like many of you did, and loved seeing him do the walk of shame. But I saw this coming when Jesse shot a look down the couch right before they voted, and whoever was doing the voice-over narration at that point said they had a plan on who to bring back. I'm with the rest of you in hoping he loses again too.

yeah, but from the looks of the preview, it looks like he fights Alphonso and I'm sure that he could beat Alphonso.

Oh yeah, remember that next week, it's a double episode with 2 elimination fights.

Yeah, I doubt either Alfonzo or Ahmed picked that fight, assuming it does happen next week.

Assuming TruGator is right and it goes to individual challenges and the winner can either pick their opponent or pick two others to fight, I'm guessing it's the latter and someone who didn't want to fight Alfonzo set it up. Maybe Peter who lost to him already?

You're probably right on Ahmed being able to beat Alphonso. On one hand we all thought Peter would kick Alphonso's ass too. But I think Ahmed, aside from being the more skilled fighter of the two, now has what Alphonso had in his fight with Peter. Which is that nothing to lose, balls out, all heart, hunger that is the most dangerous weapon a boxer can have.

It'll be interesting to see if Alphonso is that type of fighter who can light it up every time, or if he was just a one fight flash-fire.
