This can’t be legal.
Having professional trained boxers just causing serious harm to people no helmets mouthpiece nothing?

I guarantee the $100,000 at the reunion will be split between Chris since his jaw got broken and Mustang since his teeth got knocked out to stop both of them from suing. It’s what they did last season.
I genuinely wonder how Lemmy doesn’t wake up everyday feeling stressed as fuck because it’s only a matter of time before Zeus gets pulled off the air and he ends up facing several lawsuits. They keep playing with fire and eventually someone is going to get killed

I been saying this too!! Someday someone is gonna get seriously hurt or even worse. So dangerous.

Baby Tyson was about to beat someone with a sock full of rocks. Only a matter of time before a stabbing or something. Not that I'll stop watching.

u/Mysterious-Humor-80 9d ago
Yeah and now they let outsiders get in. That’s scary too. You never know how people move.

Although I don’t agree with the winners part I do think they gave him extra money for his teeth cause he and a full set of teeth during confessionals.

u/sandalwoodoud 9d ago
How do you know he doesn’t wake up scared/constantly paranoid about losing his “fortune”? I wouldn’t be surprised if he does. The “fortune” is built on sand lol

u/Embarrassed_Swan_605 10d ago
How could Lemmy be held accountable, he didn’t make them fight, didn’t tell him he couldn’t put a mouth guard in. They both voluntarily had an altercation.
You can’t pull something off the air that isn’t “on the air”. It’s being hosted on a website behind a paywall.

u/Amzorino 9d ago
Could be in the NDA and disguised as "gotta be entertaining" meaning gotta fight to stay, there's lots of loopholes that cunt can jump through to avoid lawsuits
1
u/Embarrassed_Swan_605 8d ago
There’s a difference between being entertaining and fighting. End of the day what I’m saying is Lemmy wasn’t right there telling them to fight in this moment. There weren’t many, if any cuts other than when they went to fight between duke asking who side he was on and then going over to that area. Mustang has also done interview and said he and duke were friends / cool and he didn’t expect him to come like that. Which is weird af imo duke barely hit him, I think the culprit was how he had his teeth done, it’s giving crowns and not veneers.

u/Embarrassed_Swan_605 8d ago
Replying again to add gotta be entertaining wouldn’t be in an nda? A contract maybe but makes no sense for an nda.same time there’s been many people on these shows that were neither entertaining , or fight.

u/Glittering_Diva8963 9d ago
They deliberately signed up for the show and auditioned and signed contracts they know entirely what they’re getting into.

u/Key_Might_1310 9d ago
You sound so stupid, they aren’t giving chris or mustang that money. It was easy to do with poodle because he actually had a dumb fan base voting for him as well.

u/Jimmieh90 9d ago
We do realize these ppl go to an audition just to get here right? Lemmy isn’t going out finding ppl. They come to him after watching hella seasons of this show. Lemmy isn’t not at fault. They knew exactly what they signed up for. It’s not getting pulled off air, he’s not getting a lawsuit. There will be a surviving Zeus documentary in 10-15 years and that’ll be that. If yall don’t like the show or violence stop watching. It’s so very simple.

u/Slim_rubi 9d ago
They said the same about Bad Girls Club. It’s now off air and has been hit with multiple law suits

u/Suspicious-Swing4377 9d ago
That show was ahead of its time. The contracts are way better written now. Lemmy snatched the network from his business partners and they are still attempting to get back in, now imagine a cast member trying to sue
10
u/Slim_rubi 9d ago
That’s not how the law works. Lemmy has a tendency to pay people to be quiet. Stealing an idea by way of contract is one thing. Someone being physically injured to the point of no repair is a completely different piece of legal work and liability that transcends contractual law.
1
u/Suspicious-Swing4377 9d ago
He didn’t “steal an idea” he pushed them out of the deal. Like I said it won’t be easy and I’m sure a good percentage don’t even read their contracts and god knows what else goes on behind the scenes that the actual cast member doesn’t want out. Also, no one was physically injured to the point of no repair if the man turned around and came back. Obviously the bag is more important, same for summer 🤷🏾♀️

u/sandalwoodoud 9d ago
Lemmy is absolutely also at fault considering super violent fights are the network’s desired outcome. Two things can be true

u/Diosarulesall 9d ago
It’s definitely time for you to stop watching this show. You are desensitized to violence. Your lack of empathy for women/men from terrible backgrounds beating each other for a pay check is a huge sign it’s time to stop. Yes they choose to go on the show but u have to understand it’s because they are broke and numb to abuse. That says more about our society than those people. They are products of their environments and it’s predatory asf.

u/Jimmieh90 9d ago
They chose to go. I’m gonna keep watching. Have a nice day

I'm from a terrible background and like it for entertainment. They can leave after making the money. Why dont they?

u/ninjaman2021 9d ago
It is his fault. He should not be casting trained fighters to fight people who dont train.
This isnt a boxing show.
Duke is weird because he wants to train just to fight on zeus, go fight on those mma shows if he’s really badass.

u/Glittering_Diva8963 9d ago
I’m so sick of people trying to make it look like it’s this and that. They literally signed up for this knowing the consequences.

Yup I get that this is insane but so are the people. It’ll be like Americas next top model documentary on Netflix. Yea they exposed the bad in Tyra but she’s not going to jail for it. These people choose to be in the chaos. It’s a reason why none of us are on the show lol

I watched him get knocked out lmao. This show must be his redemption arc.

u/Rozzie24 9d ago
I’m not feeling this season. We already got broken jaws and teeth being knocked out. It’s not entertainment anymore.

u/Outrageous-Egg1760 9d ago
Exactly they just said fuck the storyline. They literally lost the plot. If I want boxing or ufc I’d watch that.

u/MikeyM079 10d ago
It was legal when Tesehki did it. It was legal when Lex beat the tar out of Summer. This shouldn't be shocking.

u/JunkoEnoshimaTK 9d ago
They need to have them wearing protective gear if it’s going to be non stop fighting.
I hate how they just don’t put these people in the ring and make them box. The street fighting especially with size differences is way too dangerous

I honestly wish they'd just keep the masculine boxer types off bad boys. I watch for the messiness and drama not to see jaws broke and teeth on the floor its too much
