Acclaimed Contender's ability won't trigger if you don't control another Knight immediately after it enters the battlefield. If you don't control another Knight as that ability resolves, the ability has no effect. This doesn't have the be the same Knight at both times, however.

Acclaimed Contender's ability can get you at most one card from the top five cards, no matter how many other Knights you control.
