            I think the theme music sounds just a wee bit too much like HBO's Boxing After Dark for it not to be considered a bit of a steal...but the series looks like it has potential.

              Stephen Jackson is the perfect host for this one, see him at a lot of fights and seems cool with a lot of the fighters

              But Yeah Boxing need stuff like this, shows to allow the fans to get to know these fighters more away from the ring

                The concept for this show sounds cool.

                But it's because of the fighters and the towns, not because of anything to do with PBC or Al Haymon.

                    Looks promising. Like the poster mentioned above, it does have a little HBO's BAD/24-7 vibe but they'd be ****** not to take cues from such an iconic boxing production....count me in.
