Jahrhundertelang waren Ritter die ultimativen Krieger und beherrschten die Schlachtfelder mit Geschicklichkeit, Mut und roher Kraft, derer es bedarf, um in einer fast 30 Kilogramm schweren, mit Metall beschlagenen Rüstung zu kämpfen.
Auch heute gibt es Männer, die davon träumen, sich in mittelalterlichen Kämpfen zu bewähren. Als Mitglieder der "Armored Combat League" haben sie diese Chance.
In jeder Episode von "Knight Fight" treten sechs Kandidaten gegeneinander an, die bereit sind, sprichwörtlich "Leib und Leben" zu riskieren, um herauszufinden, wer zu den Besten der Besten gehört.
#1 | 06.06.2019Wikinger vs. Byzantiner (Vikings vs Byzantines)
Six modern-day fighters, specialists in the techniques of armored combat, place both their expertise and bodies on the line as they compete while suited in armor and weaponry of the past. These competitors must first prove their prowess in a six-person Grand Melee using their own personal weapons–whether maces or longswords, axes and scimitars. Four fighters advance and are paired for the Team Melee where they must adopt and adapt to the implements of the Vikings and Byzantine armies of the 10th Century. The winning duo are each given a new imposing weapon, and must face off in a final one-on-one Duel, putting their combat skills to the supreme test. Will they be able to bear the weight of both the armor and the history? Will weapons like the deadly Viking War Mace crush their hopes of winning? Most importantly, which knight will triumph and win $10,000 and entrance into the season-ending Knight Fight Tournament Championship?
#2 | 30.06.2019Engländer vs. Schotten (Knights of Braveheart)
Six modern-day warriors, experts in the techniques of armored combat, place both their skill and bodies on the line as they compete while armed with armor and weaponry of the past. These fighters must first battle through a six-man Grand Melee using their own weapons. The four who advance must work in the armory in preparation for a two-on-two fight, assembling armor and weaponry from the Scottish Wars of Independence, made famous in the movie “Braveheart.” The winning team must then adopt a daunting new weapon and go head-to-head in a final Duel that will test their limits. Which fighter will withstand the massive Maciejowski “Mac” Chopper, with its gargantuan size and toothed blade, to win $10,000 and be crowned Knight Fight Champion?
