I know there is a thread about this already, but while we're on the subject, does anyone know when/if its going to be televised?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #28 on:** June 13, 2009, 06:34:44 AM »

What place did it come in?

MikeNCR · « **Reply #31 on:** June 13, 2009, 12:20:59 PM »

College 120lb will be on the CBS college sports channel. Haven't heard if/when/what the Pro 220lb class or the HS120lb class will be on.

I can't reveal any of the results of those matches due to the NDA I signed to compete.

Weirdo · « **Reply #32 on:** June 13, 2009, 12:31:20 PM »

Can you tell me if its likely to be broadcast in the Uk or anywhere else?

Somebody · « **Reply #33 on:** June 13, 2009, 02:10:44 PM »

When will it be on TV?

MikeNCR · « **Reply #34 on:** June 13, 2009, 02:25:27 PM »

Not sure, best bet is to check http://twitter.com/battlebots and http://www.battlebots.com/BattleBots.com/Home/Home.html

In a previous thread where I was making fun of Bender someone mentioned that he was drawn against Megabyte and that "Bender is now 2-6", which I'm assuming means Megabyte won at least 1 fight.

I'm honestly not sure, The 15lb tournament overlapped with the big bots by a fair bit, and I missed a bunch of early stuff. Bender did look great at BBots. It had a steampunk-ish paint job going on.

Some pics from BBots that avoid spoilers:

Blender was a HS Middleweight at the competition. Bender is the copper and brass colored HW. I will restate again that due to the contract I signed, I cannot discuss the content of the matches in the HS120, College120 or Pro220 classes.
