Filming has begun on the second season of Enfusion, a Contender-esque
reality show focused on kickboxing. Dubbed "Test of the Champions",
the 2010 edition features 18 fighters from around the world, all in
the 70 kg MAX division. There are definitely some interesting names in
the mix, including MAX star Gago Drago, top Thai prospect Pajonsuk,
Armen Petrosyan, and Sahin Yakut. Drago in particular stands out,
both due to his high profile as a popular fighter, and his large
personality, which should make for compelling TV.
The fighters are divided into 4 teams and coached by different
fighters. Unfortunately, Melvin Manhoef, who was initially tagged as
a coach, was forced to drop out to focus on his Strikeforce bouts. A
complete list of fighters and coaches can be found after the jump.
All fighters and coaches are currently in Thailand, and shooting
has begun. Some interesting pictures have already been released,
including photos from some of the fights. Click here for a photo
gallery, and here for a promo video.
At this time, there is no news on the show being broadcast in the US,
and all European broadcasting news is still in progress.
Star-divide FIGHTERS: Pajonsuk (Thailand), Rick Barnhill (England),
Armen Petrosian (Italy), Vuyisile Colossa (South Africa), Mikael
Lallemand (France), Cyrus Washington (USA), Sucz Barnabas (Romania),
Sahin 'Kaas' Yakut (Turkey), Goran Aleksic (Serbia), Jan Van Denderen
(Belgium), Steve Moxon (Australia), Pasi Lukanen (Finland), Mirko
Vorkapic (Slovenia), Bruno Carvalho (Portugal), Alex Tobiasson
(Sweden), Frank Peredes (Peru), Shane Campbell (Canada), Gago Drago
(Armenia).
COACHES: Titiana van Polanen (Netherlands), Bernise Alldis (England),
Catarina Valerio (Portugal), Eva Berben (Belgium)
