Has anyone seen this show? It airs on Spike, I believe.

I've seen the commercials, and I figured it would be a fanboy wankfest with dubious metrics gleaned from guys beating up on dummies and ballistics gel torsos. But it was on the other night, and the matchup was SPAAAAARTAN vs. Ninja.

Shockingly, I was not wrong about the fanboy wankfest. But despite that, I found it oddly compelling. The next one they were doing was Pirate vs. Knight. Avast! I would think the guy with the gun would win, but who knows?

Remember how the ninja paused to do a backflip over a log he could have much more quickly just leaped over?

That was to remind you he was a ninja.

This show is legitimately hilarious. The Spartan wrecks the Ninja due to THE SHIELD

Also the tests for Pirate vs. Knight were pretty cool. The deal breaker isn't really surprising.

Good show to watch before TUF anyways!

The "experts" are completely hilarious. They come across like real life versions of INTERNET TOUGHGUYS with a couple exceptions. I wish there was more beating up of ballistic dummies and pig carcasses, and less dickwaving about 'a knight would win because a pirate is a SINNER'

I fully expect the fat white ninja expert to still live in his mom's basement.

yeah the french knights were all about honor, yes sir

Wasn't there a show called deadliest predator or something, in which they had matchups like shark versus tiger?

Yeah, I find it a pretty enjoyable way to spend an hour before I watch people use real violence on one another.

Next episode: Yakuza vs Mafia

Dude with a gun vs a dude with a slightly different gun. I look forward to seeing some ballistic dummies getting blown the fuck up.

Edit: Hahaha that was pretty funny watching the Yakuza dudes get all butthurt when their mystical nunchucks didn't do as much damage as a baseball bat.
