'Fight Night' @Peacock starring Kevin Hart, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Taraji P. Henson, Terrence Howard

[⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐]

When they make TV cover art do they just have the characters walk onto pre-made templates?

 

[⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐]

Felt exactly like a scene off Empire if I’m not mistaking even had sinister music then cut to commercial after

it's a rather blatantly obvious attempt to do exactly that, just in the fact that they cast both the characters from that show

This is evident in the character shots in the promo art looking like stand-ins or alternative shots for that other show, they literally have nothing about them that indicates that they are NOT reprising that chatacter

ending was hella trash, but overall I was entertained.

Good watch.

Loved seeing all the great black actors in one project. Not sure how they pulled that off but would love to see them do it again.

Even with the milquetoast ending this was still an 8/10. Very rare to see this much Black excellence on screen.

for the record the fight happened at Archer Hall at Morehouse

And to bring facts, no it did not. That man had on head gear because they are sparring. Also, the other boxer is black.

The fight happens here:

Outside of the ending, this was a dope series. Really fun story and I’m surprised at how true it is. Ali was apparently robbed too.

I worked at Morehouse, there a picture there that said he fought at Archer Hall, so if you want call me a liar, call everybody around Morehouse liars.

Ali may have sparred there, but the fight happened elsewhere. I don’t think Morehouse lied, I think you misunderstood what you were viewing.

You would think they would just turn on each other and say fukk it and run off with all the cash instead of accepting a 20K cut or why wouldn't they just skim like half the money off top.

Yeah, that’s the one part that threw me off since they weren’t friends. Ain’t no reason to sit around and wait, especially after finding out who you robbed.

Unintentional comedy for me tho was the big killer dude showing up like Michael Myers in a bunch of scenes and sop up dudes.

Finally got around to this. It was really entertaining.
