Hint only at this stage. It isn't anything whatsoever to do with boxing.

Potential pilots could be:
- A reality series in a similar to previous Foxtel series: Cricket Superstar or Contender, but the logistics will require eliminations via the ring and probably there is not enough cattle within a similar weight range and ability available.
- The more probable scenario would be a boxing equivalent to Foxtel's FX Channel's: Ulitimate Fighter series, that featured UK and Australian MMA fighters over various weight divisions.

I can't stand Barry either, his commentating is dreadful, refer's to fighters by the wrong names, wrong weight classes and is totally biased. Obviously a much better fighter than commentator.

LT heavy- Super middle would have enough fighters for a reality series. If you combined Aus and NZ.

Barry was a pretty good fisherman during his career. Put the line (his mouth) in the water and before long it was time to reel 'em in

That much is true. But rumor has it Michael is genuinely a very accomplished angler.
