Movie Star Oleg "The Russian Bear" Taktarov. Its main goal is to set
former athletes 'back on track' in the world of ultimate fighting and
to show that there is always a second chance for those who are willing
to seek it out and take it on.
Oleg Taktarov and the producers of the
show have selected ten former fighters and through extensive training
and selective bouts, they came up with four winners. These winners
are to travel to the USA and fight on American soil against American
athletes.
