LIGHTS OUT on FX
anyone watch first episode? Gotta say I am into it.
Don't think I mentioned it here, but I am half owner in a gym in Delaware (bought it in June - www.atlasfusionfitness.com ). Although not a boxing gym exclusively, having been running the gym 6 months now I saw many parallels in relating to
the story line of LIGHTS OUT.
Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the season develops.
BTW - any Thorp boarders anywhere near Middletown, DE, let me know and you get seriously discounted gym membership.

Had to bump this. Show starts off kinda slow, but this shit is getting so good. Bookies, corrupt cops, murder, drugs, sex....everything you need for
some wholesome entertainment.

I keep expecting it to turn into Lights getting in gear for a rematch, which would be predicatable. I hope they don't go that way.
I do, however, like being teased with the possibility. The temptation to get back in the ring to finally settle the question of his last fight should
always be present.

Dude, is that picture really you with the ripped muscles? I mean.... I knew you were jacked but that's crazy that you did competitions and stuff. It
looks like you could pop whiskey bottles with your butt cheeks.
