Fighting stars Channing Tatum as a “tough street kid” who gets mentored in the fight game by Terrence Howard (though in real life, the only thing Terrence Howard beats is a djembe). So basically it’s Never Back Down but set in New York and with a lighter-skinned black guy (the white guys look basically the same). MTV says…
Channing Tatum is seemingly everywhere these days, with his high-profile starring turn in “G.I. Joe” coming up this summer. But before then he’ll be taking it to the streets in “Fighting.” In the film, Channing plays a young criminal who becomes immersed in the bare knuckle world of underground fighting.
A bare-knuckle world? Good heavens! I’ll stick to wearing white gloves and attending fashionable tea parties, thank you very much.

Channing Tatum really hates being confused for Chris Klein.

I can’t be the only one who would rather see Carol Channing topless instead, can I?
Got to be careful in the “bare knuckle world.” Don’t want a lot of knuckle children out there. To be on the safe side, wear latex gloves when…wait, are we talking about FIGHTING?
Never mind!
(though in real life, the only thing Terrence Howard beats is a yummy “djembe” poked through a hole in a truckstop bathroom stall).

Channing Tatum is seemingly everywhere these days.
That’s only because it’s hard to tell white people apart.
The first rule of Channing Tatum’s fight club is “Always respect your opponent’s safeword.”
This movie looks awesome.
Channing Tatum is seemingly everywhere these days.
That’s because he looks like every frat house douchebag MTV casts for the shit they feed their audience.
Rejected titles for this film include “Punching,” “Hurting” and “Bruised Dudes Make Out.”
This is the first part of a trilogy. The next one will be called Biting, followed by Riding on His Horse. Then, after 20 years of building up an argument for it being the best trilogy of all time, they’ll ruin it all with the prequels: Racing, Pacing, and Plotting the Course.
*leaves with the cup*
Channing Tatum isn’t like Terrence Howard. Instead of wasting his time beating poetry, he goes straight to the source and beats poets
*wishes MMA would have stayed on the down-low, known only to everyone except movie producers*
Wow…Terrance Howard went from War Machine to Whore Machine in just a few months.
Channing Tatum knows that the best defense of a rear naked choke is to always be the pitcher.
Channing Tatum gets tetanus injections to keep his jaw looking like that.
When the director asked Tatum to put his costar in a kimura, he asked the wardrobe coordinator where the nearest Oriental clothing store was.
Channing Tatum thinks a choke hold is when you force your opponent to deep-throat you until he passes out
Emus, Kangaroos, and Channing Tatum can’t walk backwards.
Terrence Howard will be providing the music for this film including Channing Tatum’s character track “Its Hard Out There For A Gimp”
When the casting director asked if he knew any Brazilian Jui Jitsu, Tatum said “No. I though most Brazilian’s were catholic.”
Terrence Howard plays a former underground fighting champion whose broken arm never fully healed after his opponent shattered his elbow in an arm-bar hold. Howard tried to tap out, but his opponent had him in such a position so that his metal-plated shoes couldn’t reach the ground.
“MTV says…”
Anything more pointless than getting a breakdown of a film from MTV?

Tatum: I’m gonna fuck you till you love me.
Better when it was called Lion Heart and had JCVD
