  I am thoroughly enjoying this reality program.  Specifically the fights at the end of each program.  Not so much the actual fights, but all of Sylvester Stallone's friends in the audience.  Each week there seems to be a definitive A list star, as well as the usual suspects that would attend the opening of an envelope in Los Angeles.  There is always one person that has a direct link to Sylvester through movies etc ... Sharon Stone, James Cann, James Woods, Carl Weathers etc all baying for blood during the fight.  Is anyone else watching?

Yeah I started watching it aswell. My sister got me into it so I watch it when I can. I hate it when they show us shots of the crowd when we're trying to watch the fight, I find that annoying. I like Alfonso who won the first fight and Sergio "the Latin Snake" who has alot of heart.

the only problem I have with the show, is the edited fights & the sound effects that they add to the fighting

well you would certainly be happy after the finale

What about the celebrities in the audience?  Unbelievable... more than a usual heavyweight world title fight

oh get over yourself & use TV.com if you are unaware of what a program is

You expect everyone to put a synopsis for every program?  If you are unaware of a program, look it up.  Learn something.

Series 2 commences at the end of the month... the best bit?  It starts with a rematch series 1 final

---

There will be a slight change in the format for the series... no more silly challenges in between boxing matches, because the fighters were getting injured

I expect The Latin Snake to take him again. Please tell me they're gonna have something else in place of the challenges between each fight. Maybe they can announce the card at the beginning of the episode and focus alot more on the training leading up to each fight.

Something like that with the pre-determined card, not sure exactly... just that, these guys are basically like racehorses, specialty athletes... those challenges were stupid

& I believe you are correct with your suggestion about the Latino snake, having said that Alfonzo can take a punch

I have changed the title of this thread to include Fox8 because I didn't have a clue what show you were talking about. Never heard of it or seen it. I hope that clears up some confusion. Cheers

Yeah, but the people who watch the show do and they will be the ones discussing it, and it says it is on FOX in the thread.

I was just reading some information on the new series...

Series 2, no Sylvester Stallone... he was away filming Rocky six
they have increased the production costs, to just under $2 million per episode

Series 3, currently filming... no Sylvester Stallone... he is away filming Rambo four

anyone watching series 2?

How can you not love Sugar Ray Leonard?

They are slightly over doing it with the sound effects in the boxing matches
