Did anyone watch? Some interesting personalities this season. I thought the tests they did on them were interesting.

Also, a 198 pound man trying to fight as a 168 pound fighter? Is that normal? I noticed what's his name, the adorable winner from before, saying that "these guys" were all 180, 190 pounds, so he was going to sit out the sparring. But they are supposed to fight at 168!? That's a lot of running in trash bags.

ESPN, Tuesdays at 10pm. Someone has kindly posted a thread in here with all the of the reality show premieres and everything. I would do a shout-out to them but I can't click back without losing my post...

The tests were very interesting. The guy who was so slow on the "dot" test didn't seem to have any peripheral vision. Strange for a boxer.

I don't know why they even cast the 198-pound guy. That was craziness. Thinking you can lose 30 pounds in a week is even crazier. It may be able to be done (for a guy), but it would seem that you'd end up being awfully weak and probably dehydrated.

Anyone watch the first fight? It was a little painful to watch. I guess they're not doing challenges this season, just training and fighting.

The challenges in the first season led to some injuries. I like that they took them out. Show more of the real training for boxing.
