ELI STARTS CONTENDER2 ADVENTURE

[tysonsback]

Eli flew out this morning to take his place in the final 16 of the contender2
After 5 date changes,and 7 months of getting stuffed around,the dream finally came true,at one stage we didnt think it was going to happen.


Having the date changed so many times made it hard to keep Eli at the right peak ,and as well as dealing with some personal issues l dont know how he kept such a strong focus and trained so hard.

He is on weight, super fit,and keen as to fight,with some of the recent line up changes,l think he has good chance of taking this out,,.....GO THE MADDOG

[Jon]

good on Eli but im kinda spewin that he is not gonna be in the evo 8. oh well he will win the contender with ease nywayz

[Voice]

[LOWKICK87]

[BMT]

[Cedric]

[kathy]

Good luck to Eli. I'm sure he'll do Mad X and Australia proud!

[paddyboy]

ah eli not fighting on evo super 8?

ahhh thats sh1t!

[Aaron Kerr]

Good luck Eli, he is in a win/win situation, just for being in the "house", he will get World wide exposure.

If he manages to take it out, he will be an instant Superstar.

Whatever happens, it'll be a great experience.

[JWP]

Go Eli. Remember to get the most tv time try and be as naked as possible ;)!

[Wrecka]

Go Hard Eli, we're all behind you
Richard

[QUIKDRAW]

Best of luck to him...

[Kelvin]

[Rocky]

Awesome thread. But tell us more about the show. inside news etc

[dekker]

I hear an Aussie will be one of the team trainers!

[gvmartialarts]

Good luck Eli, can't wait for it to start! And yeah, big shame about missing Evo...

[JWP]

Ray Sefu and Clifton Brown are the trainers.

[gvmartialarts]

Nice. Should have had you in there too JWP...

**suspicious**
Russ never asks a question without knowing the answer prior...

[Russ]

but its a 50/50 on which answer i know. : )

[spano]

go eli!!! do mad x an australia proud were all backin u here champ...bring home the belt yewww

[JWP]

Nah, I got a call asking if I was keen to be a trainer, I said F*ck Yeah but it fell over so they got the other two gentlemen instead. Oh well, could have a few other things up my sleeve yet, heard the Humphrey B Bear might be hanging up the suit soon so going to put my proposal in. Take this whole kids channel to a whole new level.
Anyway, I am sure all the fighters will be in good hands.
Cant wait to sit down and watch this series.

[Jon]

haha teach the kids MT in the humphrey suit. guaranteed wold champs in the future then

[JWP]

I hope Eli bashes Kit Cope, man I hate that dude. If you dont know who he is, go to youtube, after 30 seconds you will think he is a doodle as well.

Kit Cope was our friend USTC right? (Tomato Can)

[Voice]

I youtube'd kit cope as instructed...have a listen to this interview.
http://www.myvideofight.com/Other/Kit-Cope-Trashes-Gina-Carano

funny as, he goes on to tell the interviewer there is media of him and gina carano 'in a safe place' and starts to give a description of her...haha
Real nice guy...read the comments below the footage.

[DazMon]

They kept you 2 apart!

[gvmartialarts]

Well clearly he will be the 'love him or hate him' charachter a la Raffik.

'gnarly dudes....' LMFAO, who the fvck says that anymore.....DOUCHE!!

[Russ]

haha, yeah maybe it was wise not to make you a trainer then. hahahaha.
but you won the contest dude ;)

it was never proven voice, but all clues pointed that way.

[dekker]

Pretty sure an Aussie is going to be a trainer!

[BMT]

if its not JWP it would have to be Nugget or Riddler.

[QUIKDRAW]

it could be Soren....

[Bushi]

Maybe Hammer might be holding pads again...

[QUIKDRAW]

wow i just watched some footage of kit cope.....what a w@nker...
JWP should have held out 4 the second series, lets hope someone wipes this tool out.....real early.

[quick_elbow86]

I know who it is.. but I'll never tell ;)

[Jon]

bet ya its hammer or nugget

[scottya]

Also the best to Eli

Have they named the two wild cards for the contender yet ?

[JWP]

Another clip of a w*nker

[gvmartialarts]

Bwahahahahaha, I seriously love this guy.

[TSINGANI]

are there any clips of kitten cope getting beaten up?

[khys]

he is a 4 time world champion yet i cant find 1 fight. wanted to see him in action to make my own mind up

[QUIKDRAW]

oh dam ha ha ha..that was even funnier than the 1 i watched earlier, give him the wildcard spot on Evo for fuk sake...he will be in the house a week tops...

[JWP]

This is awesome, Kit fights Kenny Florian. Kit taps just after the first bell, cause it was after the bell he was sent out again and made to tap again the next round, too funny.

http://www.mma-core.com/videos/_Kenny_Florian_vs_Kit_Cope_TUF_2_Finale?vid=100015 93&tid=100

Kit was also in MTV's true life: I'm a Muay Thai fighter. He goes to Thailand and fights Bare Knuckle against a Thai cooks Grand Pa.

After a recent video claiming he made a sex tape with Gina and trash talking Randy Couture's gym he has got himself in trouble with the MMA world and might have to watch his back walking around his home town in Vegas.

Contender will expose this bloke for sure.

[Stretch]

The mentors are rumoured to be Ray sefo and Clifton Brown.
Cope tested positive for banned substances recently too.

[Hot Sizzle]

He's also on Worlds Wackiest Sports. Sorry if already mentioned.

[quick_elbow86]

Bahahahaha! Kit Cope is a twat.. He clearly stated he has a permanent rib injury, so I hope whoever fights him first in the house just cracks away at those ribs.. This guy seriously loves himself.. Dead set clown. [:o)]

[Dynamite Drew]

Cope = pretender .... not contender

[Dynamite Drew]

have heard rumours and whispers from a few sources ......

all participants in the show including - fighters , mentors , trainers - must speak english

no Khem Fairtex and Madsua

Ray Sefo and Clifton Brown as mentors

sadly looking like they are true

[GUVNER]

Humphrey B Bear with a six shooter on the hip, thats good TV!

Boo Kit Cope

Go Eli!

[mpoyzer]

Any news? Surely there would have been some fights by now!

Well if fighters & co were told last year not to leak any info why would that be changed this year

[mpoyzer]

Cmon Bushi use your mod magic to change the title to spoilers, and tell us what you know!

[tysonsback]

Due to a smog problem the show has been put back again,Eli is off to Thailand for 5 weeks training and then they should start again late next month.

Because of contract conditions we cant give any info away about the show,all l will say that its still a strong line up and you all will be happy with who has been chosen as a trainer.

[scottya]

Found some photos posted from the shooting of contender 2
Cant be leaked as its the boss of the whole thing that's posted them up

So are we going to get a spoiled topic started on here or just post away ?

[the_dragon]

Love the commentary intro on Cope, "he's the best of the cream of the crop in muay thai" and "one of the best in the world"
