The eagerly anticipated second broadcast by UK mma
organisation Cage Gladiators hits the airwaves on Friday 29th August
at 23:00hrs on ITV 4. The two hour show will feature nine action packed bouts,
including the main event CG World Heavyweight Title contest between UFC veteran
Colin Robinson and Dutch giant Stefan
Struve. The programme also shows in depth coverage of the training that goes
into being a mainstream mixed martial artist , aswell as a background education
of the rules for new viewers of the sport. 
The original broadcast in May 2008 was highly acclaimed for it’s
advance production levels, yet the follow up instalment has surpassed that.
Emile Coleman boasts “ We sat down with the production team and improved the
product greatly, we feel we need to progress with every event and this is no
exception. We feel our broadcasts are an indicator of how big British MMA can
become, and how mainstream it can go.” 
Itv have encompassed the show in an evening of sport, with the UEFA Super Cup Final and Ronaldo documentary preceding the programme which
runs from 23:00hrs to 01:00hrs. Itv feel this will reach their target audience
and demographic, this shows the level of commitment the Channel are giving Cage
Gladiators and MMA.
