I saw the advert earlier, and can tell you it's only three documentaries on Tyson, Ali, and Foreman. I'll watch out for the date and times, and get back to you.

I seen the Foreman one...and as usual with these channels, it's very good and interesting. I hope the Tyson one isn't the one which ends with him going into prison. It says Premiere so hopefully it's more up-to-date.


anyone know if that Louis-Schmelling documentary is going to be repeated on any of the documentary channels? i watched it first time around...but would like to tape it.

one of my short term goals is to eat something that 'lean mean fat reducing grilling machine' has cooked up. No one i know has it...i need to know if it lives up to the hype.
