A gag order on the winner of Contender Asia after the finale in this Internet age makes everybody look stupid

Tay Yek Keak
I WENT to watch a very exciting Muay Thai boxing match last Saturday night and I am dying to tell you who won. But I simply cannot reveal the winner in the final of The Contender Asia, the reality TV series shot in Singapore.

The show is a take-off from The Contender in the United States, the reality boxing series created by Mark Burnett, and there’s a gag order from the producers imposed on me as a member of the media.

I signed a non-disclosure form, and if I were to reveal the winner, I think I might be sued until my trousers are reduced to boxer shorts.

The media is embargoed for 12 eternal days until April 24, after the final show of the series – meaning the battle I saw – is shown to TV audiences the night before.

The series is currently running weekly on cable’s AXN channel and will reach its final episode only next Wednesday.

Here’s the ridiculous thing: I wasn’t the only one privy to this super secret because there were about 6,000 other people around me, all presumably fight fans, at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

And since Saturday, they’d probably have told their pals, their colleagues, their families, basically anybody interested to know, until that result is now ancient history.  Read more »
