<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="Contender Asia Season 2" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3576/3387190216_ea158afacc.jpg?v=0" alt="" width="450" height="345" /></p>
<p>The Contender Asia Season 2 is taking place in Malaysia this year and the contestants are almost finalized. I took this picture from the Contender Asia fan club site and you can get a good idea of who will be in this seasons show. I am hoping that this year we will be able to catch it here in the states. I know last year they showed it on the versus channel on Thursday at 6:00PM. I would always rush home from work to catch the show but because it was on so early I missed a lot of the show.</p>
<p>I believe there is one spot on the show left and I think it will be another fighter from Malaysia but I am unsure. Here are the 15 fighters they have lined up right now and you should recognize a few names on the list.</p>
<p>Paulo Balicho ( Switzerland )</p>
<p>Bernard Radin ( Malaysia )</p>
<p>Rafi Zouhier ( Spain )</p>
<p>Pak-Wing Heung ( Hong Kong )</p>
<p>Jordan Watson ( U.K. )</p>
<p>Eli Madigan ( Australia )</p>
<p>Bakhulule Baai ( Africa )</p>
<p>Marcus Oberg ( Sweden )</p>
<p>Levin Artem ( Russia )</p>
<p><span class="ext">Marco Piqué ( Netherlands / Suriname )</span></p>
<p>Saro Presti ( Italy )</p>
<p>Cedric Muller ( France )</p>
<p>Khem Fairtex ( Central Thailand )</p>
<p>Jesse Miles ( Canada )</p>
<p>Singsiri Por Sirichai ( South Thailand )</p>
<p>Here are some clips of the fighters:</p>
<p>Singsiri Por Sirichai ( South Thailand ) in the Blue shorts:</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/eNqSSetwy2o&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/eNqSSetwy2o&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Although Singiri does not win it is a good fight.</p>
<p>Here is a clip of Marcus Oberg vs. one of the previous contenders, Dzhabar.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/k5XsVYQtYoQ&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/k5XsVYQtYoQ&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>

<p><img class="alignleft alignnone" style="float:left;" src="http://www.fusionexcel.com/img/news/zidov1.jpg" alt="" width="189" height="252" /></p>
<p>I have been involved in Muay Thai Kick Boxing for many years. I am currently the 2008 Swiss Muay Thai Champion and the 2006 Swiss SANDA Champion (SANDA is a combination of Muay Thai and Kung Fu). Recently, I starred in Contender Asia as Captain of the Team. Contender Asia was viewed by 400 million viewers around the world! I have been featured and interviewed by numerous magazines and newspapers around the world (including Malaysian Star Newspaper).As you can see, I lead a pretty hectic lifestyle!</p>
<p>When my good friend, Ramazan Ramazanov (World Muay Thai Heavyweight Champion) introduced FE&#8217;s Quantum Pendant to me and did the demos on me, I was very impressed. WOW!</p>
<p>Now when I train, I always drink the charged water. I feel more powerful and I train so much better. I also noticed since I started wearing the QP, I dont have as much headaches as before. I feel much more relaxed and calm and at night I sleep much better. I have no hesitation recommending FE&#8217;s QP to everyone!  Thank you so much FE for such a wonderful product!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>สี่อย่างครับ</p>
<p><strong>เว็บไซต์ :</strong> <a href="http://www.coolswop.com" target="_blank">coolswop.com</a> เว็บไซต์ของคนไทยนี่แหละ แต่มีไอเดียดีคือ เป็นเว็บไว้โพสต์แลกของกัน ซึ่งจริงๆแล้วฟังก์ชั่นแลกของนี่ก็มีหลายเว็บที่ทำมานาน แต่เว็บนี้เอามาเป็นแกนหลักคือ เอาของที่เราไม่มีประโยชน์กับเราโพสต์ไปที่เว็บนั้น(บอกหรือไม่บอกมูลค่าของก็ได้ การบอกมูลค่าก็เอาไว้ให้คนที่อยากแลก เค้าหาของราคาสมน้ำสมเนื้อมาแลกอะ) หรือเราจะเอาความสามารถของเราไปแลกก็ได้ เช่น วาดรูปเก่งมากขอแลกการสอนวาดรูปกับ ซีดีเพลงอะไรทำนองนั้น ลองดูครับ..</p>
<p><strong>การ์ตูน :</strong> Path of Fujiko F Fujio Vol.1 &#8211; Dish of Minotauros ปกสีทองเล่มใหญ่ๆ ราคา 195 บาท!! แต่คุ้มค่ามาก เป็นหนังสือการ์ตูนรวมเรื่องสั้นของคนเขียน โดราเอมอน ตอนแรกจะเขียนรีวิวว่าเป็น ด้านมืดของ Fujiko F Fujio แต่มีคนคิดเหมือนกันเขียนรีวิวไปแล้ว เขียนดีด้วย งั้นไปอ่านที่เค้าเขียนเลยละกัน <a href="http://zieghart.exteen.com/20080418/66-my-fujiko-f-fujio" target="_blank">ที่นี่</a></p>
<p><strong>เพลง : </strong>Greasy Cafe อัลบั้ม สิ่งเหล่านี้ ช่างภาพกองถ่ายหนังที่ทำเพลงได้ดีเหลือเกิน นอกจากเสียงดนตรีแล้วยังมี&#8217;บรรยากาศ&#8217;แถมให้ด้วย  <a href="http://www.myspace.com/greasycafe" target="_blank">ลองฟังดู</a>ู</p>
<p><strong>รายการ : </strong>Contender มวยไทย(แต่จัดที่สิงคโปร์)ช่อง AXN พุธนี้รอบชิงแล้ว ระหว่างนักมวยไทย&#8221;ยอดแสนไกล&#8221; กับ นักมวยออสเตรเลีย&#8221;John Wayne Parr&#8221; แต่รายการนี้ดูแล้วเหมือนออสเตรเลียนคนนี้เป็นพระเอกแล้วคนไทยเป็นผู้ร้ายยังไงไม่รู้ แต่ยังไงก็ เตะให้ตายๆๆ</p>
<p>&#8230;โฆษณาจบแล้ว</p>
<p>ปล. ไม่ค่อยชอบเขียนถึงหนังหรือเพลงเท่าไหร่ เพราะมันแล้วแต่รสนิยมแต่ละคน เคยแนะนำให้เพื่อนฟังเพลงอันนั้นหรือดูหนังอันนี้แล้ว ปรากฎเค้าไม่ชอบแถมโดนกระแนะกระแหนอีก เราจะมาเซ็งเองซะเปล่าๆ&#8230;</p>

<p>Free things tend to make people change their minds very quickly, not so long ago, I was given to the fate that I&#8217;ll watch Flicker Fest instead of Contender, but when extra free tickets started emerging from the company stash&#8230;how to say no? kaka <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>Things that will stick in my mind from that night? Lime green ankle guards, a bloodied nose, plenty of crouch-kicking, tripping, shiny short skirts, and last, but not least, child labour.</p>
<p>A little complain queen episode as well, round 1 of zidov vs zach fight, I stepped out to the event&#8217;s food counter to get some food, and a drink. I ended up with a tiger (not cold&#8230;) that cost me 10 bucks (nevermind, pretend i am in zouk) and a ham+cheese sandwich that costs 6 bucks&#8230; ONLY to be informed by the &#8220;friendly&#8221; guard at the arena door, that beer was not allowed&#8230;Thanks to indoor stadium, I had my first lonely beer, standing up and finishing it in less than 2 mins b&#8217;coz i didn&#8217;t want to miss the show&#8230;.and ITS NOT EVEN COLD!!! why did the organisers sell beer when its not allowed inside?? what a rip-off&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://onigeek.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/allinone140408-153.jpg"><img style="border-width:0;" src="http://onigeek.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/allinone140408-153-thumb.jpg?w=244&#038;h=184" border="0" alt="allinone140408 153" width="244" height="184" /></a></p>

<p>After the show, we had Bak Koot Teh at Joo Chiat, first time there and the food is delicious! Expensive though, the claypot with prime ribs is 7 bucks and rice costs 60cents.</p>
<p>But the taste is RAFURIIIIiiiiii, the meat is soft, the soup is black and brewed to perfection with a rich smell of soy sauce and the meat slips off the rib bone very easily, certainly a sign of freshness, yum yum, I&#8217;m definitely going back soon. <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> ~~~~</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>now that Amazing Race is on a hiatus, is without a doubt&#8230;</p>
<p>THE CONTENDER ASIA!!</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><img src="http://contenderasia.com/images/stories/episodes/episode9/07.jpg" alt="Contender Asia, Yodsaenklai, Naruepol " height="250" width="400" /></div>
<p>There is something about boxing that just fascinates me&#8230; Call it bloodlust, call it what you will, but I prefer mortal combat over whiney judges lobbing &#8220;witty&#8221; remarks behind tonnes of security guards anytime. (Humiliating other people should not feel so good&#8230; even though some of these people really deserves to be humiliated&#8230; )</p>
<p>There is something&#8230; dare I say it? &#8220;pure&#8221; about 2 men facing off with nothing but their fists and legs&#8230; (I don&#8217;t mind 2 scantily clad ladies in the same scenario too, of course&#8230; but that&#8217;s another story for another day&#8230;)</p>
<p>Anyway, this week&#8217;s faceoff pits 2 of my favorite fighters against each other. I think they are easily the strongest among the fighters. The thing is that these 2 are supposed to be  the best of friends&#8230; I love that when they found out they have to fight each other, they resort to the same defense mechanism most guys employ when in denial&#8230; they go to sleep&#8230;</p>
<p>All in all, ep 9 was a really sweet episode with the family members and/or close friends of the fighters being flown in to visit the Contenders. Was a big moment for some of them as they&#8217;ve not seen/talk to said family members for a long time already&#8230; I know the producers are milking these moments for all they&#8217;re worth, but I am a big sucker for this anyway&#8230;</p>
<p>Another tender moment was when Yodsaenklai, the Thai fighter say to his friend and opponent Naruepol that he (Naruepol) is all about looks and that he will have to punch him hard in his face so that he can walk besides him after the fight.</p>
<p>He commented on what a pair they make&#8230;</p>
<p><img src="http://contenderasia.com/images/stories/episodes/episode9/01.jpg" alt="Naruepol, Contender Asia" height="130" width="200" /> <img src="http://contenderasia.com/images/stories/episodes/episode9/15.jpg" alt="Naruepol, Contender Asia" height="130" width="200" /></p>
<p><i>&#8220;I go by luck. He goes by looks.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Sweet&#8230;</p>
