Episode descriptions & dates

Episode 1 - Keyshawn Davis: Legacy Begins (July 7): Riding a meteoric rise through the professional ranks, undefeated lightweight contender Keyshawn Davis faces the most pivotal fight of his young career when he battles Gustavo Lemos. A victory will all but guarantee Davis a world title shot, but on the eve of the fight, the bout’s status is called into question.

Episode 2 - Mikaela Mayer: Road to Redemption (July 8): After suffering defeats in her last two title fights, Mikaela Mayer faces what could be her final shot at a belt against reigning WBO welterweight world champion, Sandy Ryan. Tensions rise as personal feuds play out, and a pre-fight incident brings the drama to a boiling point. With her career clock ticking, Mayer must prove she still has what it takes.

Episode 3 - Jared Anderson: The Weight of Greatness (July 9): Jared Anderson was once considered the next great American heavyweight and the heir to Tyson Fury’s throne. A series of driving arrests and a knockout loss have left his future in doubt. When Anderson finds himself at the bottom of a fight card, his lackluster performance leaves many wondering if he will ever fulfill his potential.

Episode 4 - Jaime Munguia: Tijuana Warrior (July 10): Many experts considered Jaime Munguia to be Tijuana’s next great champion after an impressive performance in a loss to Canelo Alvarez. However, the wear and tear of an already long career has left some wondering if the Mexican star’s best days are behind him. Munguia returns home for a stadium homecoming against massive underdog Bruno Surace intent on making a statement.

Episode 5 - Mason & Vargas: Next in Line (July 11): 21-year-olds Emiliano Vargas and Abdullah Mason are boxing phenoms on the precipice of superstardom. Vargas, an unbeaten junior welterweight, fights to defend the Vargas family boxing legacy established by his world champion father, Fernando. Mason, a flashy lightweight from Cleveland, Ohio, hopes to become the next face of the sport.
