    I don't know if any of you guys have watched the show "Fight Quest", it's shown on the Discovery Channel.

    Basically it's two American guys, who travel around the world fighting other fighters from that countries main martial art.

    First they went to China (Wushu Kung-FU), then the Philippines (Kali), then to Japan (Koyokushin Karate). It's pretty cool because they have full contact fights in those style against that countries two best fighters.

    The American guys are fighters themselves, one guy being a MMA fighter out of Team Punishment, with Tito Ortiz and the other a kickboxer , who is an ex-Marine that served in combat duty in Iraq.

    The next episode will be in Mexico City and will feature Boxing. The "Masters" they chose in boxing are Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain and Tiburcio Garcia.

    These guys will have to fight Mexican fighters from the gyms of Beristain and Garcia. In the clip I saw, one of the American dudes was running up and down some pyramid in Mexico in the jungle it looked like. The other one was in the ring and got knocked down with a pretty good shot.

    I thought it was cool that they chose Mexico to represent Boxing and the show premiers in January 18th on the Discovery Channel. I'm sure they are showing repeats of the other episodes so you guys can catch up

    I have been trying to post this for two days now and for some reason I can't start new threads. Is anyone else having this problem, I still see I'm allowed to do it, my page just times out when I post new threads only.......WTF?!?!

      Yeah, ive seen every episode. I was actually a fan of Human Weapon. Both shows are cool. I think Abner Mares makes a cameo in this episode. I cant recognize who their guide is though.

        It was Vicente Escobedo, I'm pretty sure. Funny thing though, after his last fight they interviewed him on telefutura and he can't speak spanish for ****. He probably speaks enough to get by but he sounds ridiculous and probably wasn't a good choice.

          Saw the commercials as well, it is el Centro Ceremonial Otomi. Erik Morales trained there and most of Mexico's top fighters train or have trained there. It really doesn't get more sacred than there imo.
