Personally I only tune in for the last half hour or so to watch the fights.
Anybody else been checking out this show?

Last night in particular?

One HELL of a fight!
I'd almost be willing to pay to see it again

I think they rebroadcast on CNBC tonight If you get a chance definately check it out.

These guys fight their hearts out every week but last night was really something. As good or better then alot of regular pro fights they show on pay per view.

Wouldnt surprise me at all to see a couple of these guys really make it big in the bigtime

IF you can be patient enough to sit through the commercial at the beginning. check out some of the video clips
The Contender

If not definately try to catch the rebroadcast of last nights fight

A guy at the YMCA was telling me about the show, this morning. He says that next sundays show is suppossed to be the best yet.

He wouldnt stop talking about it.

No you didnt. they showed a different fight.

The good fight is on tonight CNBC
Best fight I've seen in this series yet. Rivels anything I've seen at the pro level with very few exeptions.

Actually, it's edited boxing. They cut it into nothing but the good stuff.

Very entertaining show

Thats part of the beauty of it.
they have only a few rounds in which to get it done so they cant waste their time dancing around the ring playing tag and avoid the tag for 1/2 the round. So they have to spend the ringtime actually fighting.
