The Wray & Nephew Contender Heralds A New Age Of Boxing In Jamaica

Jamaican boxing had its hay-day in the 70’s and 80’s with legends such as Richard “Shrimpy” Clarke and Mike McCallum. Now Jamaica’s once favourite sport is back on Prime Time Television with the premier of The Wray & Nephew Contender on TVJ this December.

16 professional boxers will compete for a share of nearly two million dollars with the winner walking away with a whopping one million dollars and the title of Jamaica’s Ultimate Middleweight Contender.
