Anyone watch Fight Quest on Discovery

I have been watching the new Fight Quest TV show on Discovery. It is a pretty interesting idea, but I was surprised to find out the actual physical size of the two guys and their experience level. The bald guy is 5' 10" 175 and the other guy is 5'6" 145. The other interesting thing is neither one has a black belt in any martial art. I just wonder why they choose these two and not some more experienced fighters. Not that the size should make a huge difference, but I couldn't figure out why everyone they were fighting seemed to be quite a bit taller. What do you guys think of the show so far? They did get their butts kicked in the Japan/Karate show.

I havent seen an episode yet, I just cant imagine what the differences would be when compared to Human Weapon

That's pretty hilarious. I hadn't seen Human Weapon, but it does look exactly the same. Discovery even copied the hosts with one bald guy and a smaller guy with hair. Nice originality Discovery channel!

The fighters on Fight Quest are actually pretty skilled. They are not the best, but that's why they were chosen. No sense in sending the best fighters to learn stuff they already know.

I just watched the first 9 episodes and they go through some pretty tough stuff. They do pretty well at each style considering that they only train for 5 days.
