THE NEXT GREAT CHAMP KNOCKS OUT THE COMPETITION
Series Premiere Tuesday, September 7th 9/8c FOX

You've read about it, you've heard about it, the other networks tried to stop you from seeing it. Now, see for yourself the show the competition didn't want you to see. The hardest hitting reality show is only on FOX.

Real boxers, real punches, no staged fights... and no actors!

Despite aggressive and outrageous attempts to keep “The Next Great Champ” from airing, FOX is elated that the court clearly recognized that this action constituted an improper prior restraint, and that the series will premiere as originally planned on Tuesday, September 7th 9/8c on FOX.
