Plot Synopsis

KNOCKOUT is a reality competition series that follows nine boxers -- up and comers as well as a few veterans -- who travel to Las Vegas (Season 1) and Connecticut (Season 2) to work with world-class trainers, as these fighters compete for a spot in world-class boxing with one of these legendary trainers sitting in their corner. Plus, KNOCKOUT glances into their personal lives and the pressures of fighting for their future, exploring the struggles of climbing to the top. Season 1 is built around the 140, 147 and 154-pound weight divisions, with the winners of the tournaments in each weight division facing a top 20 contender to see if they can realize their ring dream. The trainers or Season 1 are: Floyd Mayweather, Sr., the father and trainer of five-division boxing champion, Floyd Mayweather, Jr.; Ruben Guerrero, whose son, Robert 'The Ghost' Guerrero, is the current interim WBC welterweight champion; and Yoel Judah, the trainer and manager of his sons, world-class boxers Zab Judah, Daniel Judah, and Josiah Judah. Season 1 fighters include: Denis Douglin; Juanito Garcia; Marc 'The Ring Shark' Salser; Ricardo Mayorga; Jose Angel Rodriguez; Steven Upsher-Chambers; Jessie Vargas; and Martin Wright.
