Fight Factory - New MMA reality tv show.

El Guapo!

There's a new mma tv show which premieres tonight in the US for a 2hr special. I'm not sure how we can watch it over this side of the water but I'd say it'll be available online. It's mainly set in the AKA gym and focuses on their fighters but it looks really good and worth a watch.

Here's the extended pilot episode they released for it:

I haven't heard of any uk channels showing it but I doubt it. I'd say it'll be easily available online though. The first official episode is on tonight in the states so I'm gonna have a hunt around tomorrow for it and see if I can find it anywhere.

The video I posted in the OP is Episode 1. They showed this the other night in the US followed by episode 2. I can't find Episode 2 ANYWHERE online so I asked the tv channel showing it in the States and they said it'll be up on their website soon. www.mynuvotv.com

Have they gotten to the part when they explain why Koschek fell out with Mendez yet?

I think they start getting into that in Episode 2 (which is the episode I've been searching for)
I'm gonna keep checking the website and as soon as the new episodes are up I'll update this thread if anyones interested.

Hope they have it back on soon

Mr. CooL ICE

Tried watching this in work. Got an error message, but didn't know if it was my computer or the site.

My computer hasn't got all the browser updates (IT helpdesk are too slow at the moment) so when I tried clicking on something to find ep2, our content filter blocked it with reason: "lingerie and swimsuit content"

You're looking in the wrong place. That link doesn't bring you to the actual video.
If you click the video underneath that entitled "Breaking Bad" that's episode 2. Haven't watched it yet myself as I'm in work but I just had a quick check and it seems to be working ok.

Thanks a mil, appreciate that.

Anyone watch all the episodes?

decent show all round imo, Koscheck comes across as a prick the entire duration of the show, have to wonder how much, if any of it is acting? seems like a real hard guy to like.

great having a look into one of the top MMA gyms around, Cormier fast becoming one of my favourite fighters, I hope this show continues for another season and they have footage of cain training for Junior II. Quite clear from watching fight factory he was injured for the first fight (yes I am a huge fan of Cain.:rolleyes:)

full season now available here:

Yea i watched them all, i wish some of the scenes werent so clearly set up, still enjoy the show though

In my opinion, Javier Mendez makes himself look clueless in the show

JJayoo

Koscheck's girlfriend is fcuking amazing. I would giver her all my babies.

Kent Brockman

Watched it all too, enjoyed it and interested to watch more. Are they doing a 2nd series (I keep checking back but can't find anything after episode 8).

I haven't heard anything but going by the tone of the last ep, and the name AKA vs Dethrone gave me the feeling they were setting up a second season, there is play acting going on there without a doubt, building up a bit of a story I hope they continue.

I've no real interest in the Koscheck stuff, what I do like is when they have cormier, cain etc. showing those guys train and talk about the fight game etc. I hope they continue, would really like to see a bit of cain in training for 2nd junior fight.

I will be very interested to see how Cormier fares in the ufc also

El Guapo!

Finally got around to watching the last 3 episodes. Loved the show. I hope it comes back for a second season. There's a petition on the FB page to get it back for another season. I'd like to see other gyms do the same thing. Really interesting seeing what goes on behind the scenes of such a big gym.

I actually liked Kos in it. He might come across as a bit of a dick sometimes but at least he's honest. He says what he feels, even if it might not be right.
There's something not right with Javier Mendez. He comes across as a bit fake or something. I think Bob Cook really runs the show over there, and he seems to be a good guy, really looks like he cares for the fighters.

Daniel Cormier is a class act. He comes across as a down to earth, all around nice guy.

Couldn't agree more, I stood up and took notice of the lad after the bigfoot fight, classy guy any time he's interviewed

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Cormier < he's had a tough & very interesting life. I really hope he does well in UFC.

Wow, I didn't realise he had such a tough personal life. Seems like a sound bloke. I can't wait to see him in the UFC. I wonder would him and Cain ever fight each other or would they avoid each other due to being team mates.

weemcd

Cain frequently says that if anyone wants to see them fight, they should show up at the gym as they spar daily!:pac:

I honestly don't know what would happen, only way I'd potentially see it would be for a belt. Cormier has been asking for jones for a while now, so he is def. considering LHW

califano

Great season, full of win. You see all sides of the coin incl Phil Baroni stuck in a rut and cant get out because its the only thing he knows. You see the other side of people(incl his wife) when things dont go well. There was no indication that episode 8 was the final episode so thought for a week or so that it was just a break in the season but unfortunately not. That said they probably made 8 episodes out of six by rinse and repeating one liners so much "Theres only one reason i left AKA.... Javier Vasques" and the like said about 5 times per episode!.

weemcd

With Cain as champ again this show could well do with a second season, I'm sure a lot of people who had not seen the show before would watch after his last fight.

I hope this show comes back for a second season. I loved the show!
And as you say, it should get a lot more interest now after Cain regaining the HW strap.

califano

Yeah its just so easy to have these shows really. Just put the camera in there and look at life in their shoes. Loved the 1st season and would dearly like to see a 2nd season even if it were with another gym.
