    There's a new foreign reality series in consideration. Prison fighting! Prisoners ranging from rapists to murderers will step into a 15' x 15' prison cell and go at it one on one, no rules. It will be a tournament type series. Every week, there will be a new episode where we learn of the history of each prisoner and what got them imprisoned. The fights will take place in the prison cell in hand to hand combat, no weapons, and the person who submits is the loser. There will be no rules so anything goes.
    This is being considered as a boxing/MMA type series with a bit of soap opera thrown in and the prisoners selected to compete in the fights will only be those with fighting backgrounds and fighters participating in the prison's boxing program.
    The series will last a season and the finale will have the 2 finalists fighting eachother. The ultimate prize for the winner will be parole.
    Filming starts in August. No american networks have considered picking up the series as of yet.

    Wasn't there supposed to be a "Prison Idol" singing contest show?

    This sounds like great stuff. For added excitement they should have landmines hidden under random tiles in the room, hidden weapons like a prison shank, and a 15 minute time limit or cyanide gas goes off.

    I'd be down to watch this shit every week! :eeeek: :kick:

    Spam, prisonners, by the law, have rights too, they'd have to be regulated with the same rules any mma organisations has to live with. So unless it's inTurkmekistan or somewhere like that, no way it happens.

    As a bonus, the winner of a fight should get five minutes with a snitch. :bears:
