New Boxing Reality Show Debuts Tonight

Monday March 7, 2005
A new boxing reality show, "The Contender", debuts tonight on NBC at 9:30 PM ET/PT. NBC is banking on reality show wiz Mark Burnett and co-hosts Sylvester Stallone and Sugar Ray Leonard to deliver a hit. FOX recently tried - and failed miserably - with its own boxing reality show, "The Next Great Champ". At least NBC's timing is good, coming on the heels of the Oscar-winning "Million Dollar Baby."
