And it’s Stun Gun, not Korean Zombie. He will probably be on season 3.
Whoops. Copy & Pasted the wrong name.
In my defense, all Korean MMA fighters names look alike.

China made one.Hard to believe its been 15 months since the 1st season.
And its hard to believe its taken 15 months to get a 2nd season together.
And its hard to believe there hasn't been another reality-show production company in another country copying the format.
The events are better so far...but the personalities aren't as memorable
This show is so good. I’ve been impressed by the Korean sportsmanship. They are still very competitive but generally carry themselves with humility and respect and don’t whine when they lose.
I just finished it and came here to say the same thing.I feel like too many of the events are pure strength.
It gives the female competitors or smaller male competitors zero chance at winning anything.
Wouldn't it be better if they did more events that tested balance, stamina, etc? Or the lifting objects portion be based on a percentage of the contestant's weight. Sort of like Survivor.
Oh yeah when Mr Ippon bowed and then the other guy felt his game plan of running away would be disrespectful so he had to face him for a fight.This show is really fun and their sportsmanship is out of this world
I'm rooting for Korean Thanos, his body is OP
That challenge was great in season one where they had to hold up a weight on a rope that was something like 50% of their bodyweight, felt very fair.I feel like too many of the events are pure strength.

But the 2 finalists were smallish guys? The winner is 180 pounds at 6 ftI just finished it and came here to say the same thing.
This show is total fire but I think the challenge selection regressed this season.
All challenges were very dependant on strenght and there was no chance for women and small guys, the only ones who lasted were carried by their stronger teammates and were basically dead weight in their teams.
There should be more incentive for different skills, at least during the team sections of the show. Challenges like one teammate carrying another, crawling or sneaking through narrow spaces and things involving balance and pure speed for example. In the end it's the super-fit male types like the crossfit guys who will make to the finals anyway, but at least the team selection would need to be smarter than just avoiding the chicks and the small dudes.
That gripe aside, I still love the show and can't wait for the next season.
That was pretty epicOh yeah when Mr Ippon bowed and then the other guy felt his game plan of running away would be disrespectful so he had to face him for a fight.
It's a well known fact that the height stats are inflated, he's a 5'10" manlet at bestBut the 2 finalists were smallish guys? The winner is 180 pounds at 6 ft
Which isnt small but not big either...which is the point to be well rounded
