Honorable mentions:
On the game show The Biggest Loser, contestants compete to see who can lose the most weight in a given time period. Gabe Reudiger was a fighter famous for failing to make weight on The Ultimate Fighter. In fact, he put himself in the hospital trying to do so.
Kenny Stevens did the same thing on Season Two of the show, failing to make weight and being ousted from the house without even getting a chance to fight.
But the winner of this bid goes to Season One's Bobby Southworth, who cut TWENTY POUNDS in 24 hours, and still managed to win his fight.
The show: Jeopardy - The Fighter: Rich Franklin. I'm not saying that other fighters are dumb, but as a former teacher and holder of a masters degree, if I had to send someone into a game show that actually tests knowledge, I'd send "Ace."
Speaking of fighters that I would never call dumb (to their face), I nominate Phil Baroni to be a contestant on "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"
Because sometimes, the joke writes itself.
