Following the format of weekly elimination fights, the highly-anticipated 15-episode series airs weekly on AXN Cable Channel and soon on MediaCorp’s Channel 5. With current viewership of 200 million people, spanning 22 countries including Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and India on the AXN Cable Channel, our local viewers will get the chance to be part of the action when it airs for the first time in Singapore on Channel 5 (scheduled for March 2008). The Contender Asia is an unscripted drama about the lives, fears, triumphs, dreams and hopes of the best 16 professional Muay Thai fighters from 12 countries, vying for a total prize pool of US$250,000 and the chance to change their lives and the fortunes of their families forever. Filming of the 15-episode series commenced in Singapore last September at iconic landmarks like Haw Par Villa , Sentosa , Singapore Botanic Gardens , Singapore River and Chinatown - allowing viewers the world over to catch glimpses of Singapore’s rich heritage and her melting pot of cultures.
