Stallone to Launch Boxing Reality Show

Wednesday February 25, 2004
Add Sylvester Stallone to the list of people with an idea for a reality show. His show, tentatively titled "The Contender", will search for a new boxing superstar. The project, currently being pitched to TV networks, will feature Stallone mentoring the up-and-coming fighters. Not the worst idea in the world, but don't expect them to discover the next Sugar Ray Leonard or, as one developer gushed, to "reinvent boxing".
