Fight Quest
Premieres from Sundays 4th March, 9.00pm
Quest's new documentary Fight Quest is a blend of cultural immersion and a good oldfashioned smack down. The series follows seasoned mixed martial arts fighter Jimmy Smith and 25-year-old rookie Doug Anderson as they travel the globe, adding fight styles from Kali to kickboxing to their repertoire. In each episode, Jimmy and Doug will explore a new location identified with a style of fighting, such as kung fu in Dengfeng, China, and boxing in Mexico City, Mexico. There, after first immersing themselves in the sounds, smells and tastes of the local scene, the two guys will separate to train with local masters of that method -- sometimes an ancient art of combat, and other times a modern form of butt kicking. After several days of intense instruction, Jimmy and Doug will each face off against a local in a noholds- barred test of skill. The fighting is real. The injuries are real. In the end, only the best will win.
