Submission + - Giant Boxing Robots Reality Show Unveiled (ew.com)
An anonymous reader writes: It looks like the next generation of "Battle Bots" is here:
Syfy has greenlit and shot the first season of a new show where eight-foot-tall state-of-the-art humanoid robots will rock ‘em and sock ‘em in a boxing cage until one is defeated. The future-shock new series is called Robot Combat League and the project has been kept under wraps until today. The action resembles a real-life version of last year’s hit movie Real Steel, with large menacing robots pounding away at each other in a satisfying shower of sparks and gushing hydraulic fluid.
There's pics with the story.
