the best reality show I've ever seen. True real-life drama, not manufactured. True three-diminsional characters, not fame-seeking pathetics. Courage, family, dedication, and sorrow -- all these were present in each and every show. I will miss it. |

is the dubbed in sound of punches landing every time someone connects.
It's a needlessly phony element to an otherwise marvelously produced show.
I've enjoyed it. But I'm a boxing fan.
Too bad boxing is on a down cycle now in American pop culture.
I think if you stopped people on the street and asked them to name any current professional fighter you'd be hard-pressed to get any answers.
