Boxer

The Resume

    (July 22, 1978- )
    Contestant on ‘The Contender’
    Was eliminated in the second round
    Nickname is Sugar Shay

Why he might be annoying:

    Due to his massive ego, he was unpopular among the other fighters.
    He cared more about his own needs and wants than the good of his team.
    He immediately had problems with Ahmed Kaddour which drove the other contenders crazy.
    For apparently no reason, he started talking shit to and about Ahmed Kaddour.
    He ticked off his teammates when he wouldn’t call out Ahmed Kaddour after his team won the second challenge.
    When it was time for them to fight, he wouldn’t look Ahmed Kaddour in the face.
    After beating Ahmed Kaddour, he didn’t go to shake his hand.
    Before challenging Ahmed Kaddour, he called out Brent Cooper and asked his ‘Christian Brother’ to pray for him, even though Brent was Ahmed Kaddour’s teammate.
    Although he beat Ahmed Kaddour, he looked the worse of the two, after the fight.
    Due to Juan De La Rosa’s departure from the competition, the contestants had to vote somebody back in and they voted for Ahmed Kaddour simply to push Ishe’s buttons.
    He made a scene at just about every press conference.
    When his teammate, Jesse Brinkley, was having his press conference before his first fight, he got into an argument with Ishe and Ishe went off on him.
    The argument caused Ishe to cheer for his teammate’s opponent, which pissed off the rest of the team.
    When Jesse ended up winning, he angrily said he wished Jesse lost.
    He was so bitter about Anthony Bonsante picking Brent Cooper to fight instead of Jimmy Lange that when Anthony won, he refused to go on the reward with the team.
    His first career loss happened on ‘The Contender.’
    No one seemed sad to see him eliminated and leave the competition.
    He had to declare bankruptcy because he chose the wrong promoters and agents.

Why he might not be annoying:

    When he and Ahmed Kaddour eventually fought, it was Ishe who won by unanimous decision.
    After beating Ahmed Kaddour, he said he found himself again because he avoided taking easy fights and fought somebody that was a challenge.
    He seemed to succeed in getting Ahmed Kaddour to fall victim to the mind games he was playing on him.
    After the incident where he wouldn't challenge Ahmed Kaddour, he later apologized to the team and promised them that he’d challenge Ahmed Kaddour when his team won the next challenge.
    He was one of the only fighters on his team who backed Alfonzo Gomez and thought that he could beat Peter Manfredo.
    He’s a devoted family man.
    He calls his wife his best friend, saying none of what he’s done would’ve been possible without her.
    He’s very religious and serves as an usher at his Church.
    He doesn’t drink or smoke or go to strip clubs.
    He has quite a following and even his own website.
