That's awesome, one of the few reality programs that I can stomach. Stallone kind of gets to me but the fights make up for it. I love how they slowed down the big hits and did replay's during the rounds.

Awesome - thanks.
Weird how I haven't seen any promotional ties to it though.

Great show.

I loved that show. Can't wait to watch another season. I'm glad they finally found a host network. Hopefully this season is as good as the last.
Is Stallone still involved? I was under the impresion he's gone

They dropped the team challanges too and are focused more on the boxing part now

Bleh, I do.

Sorry, I hate UFC, Pride and all that crap.



Thanks for the reminder I AM STOKED that this show is back - wish Sly was still around though.

Unless Jeff finds some other way to get the boot but you gotta feel bad for the guy 1 chance at a million and he gets booted because of chicken pox.

Who wants to have a pool of which fighter wins and who gets sent to the graveyard.

I was actually pretty ignorant when it came to boxing, but I watched this show and I really liked it, came to respect it a lot more. I am going to have to watch this one.

TSN's broadcast schedule is showing it at midnight, rather than 10 p.m. Is this correct?
Well, to answer my own question, yes it appears it's on later than ESPN. That's not so bad for those of you in Calgary but it's a drag for us in the east. Oh well, looking forward to it nonetheless.

I wouldn't have known about this if I didn't read it here...loved the first one. One of the only reality shows I can stomach anymore (besides Big Brother).

I'm surprised it's coming so late. Even 10PM is pretty late for a 2 hour show, let alone the time slot for you guys out East.

Very good First episode.

Didn't miss Sly, cept Sugar Ray sounds terrible reading cue cards.

Was very pleased they brought a bunch of guys from last year back - Especially Alphonso.
