Bully Beatdown was a short-lived reality series where host Jason "Mayhem" Miller challenges bullies to fight against a professional mixed martial artist for a chance to win $10,000.
Premise[]
In each episode, there are two, 3:00 rounds of fighting with up to $10,000 at stake for each round. Round 1 involves grappling and submissions, the bully starts the round with $5,000 but will lose $1,000 every time he "taps out". If at any time the bully manages to submit the MMA fighter, the bully wins an additionally $5,000. Round 2 is all about kickboxing where the bully will win another $5,000 if he can survive 3:00 of kickboxing with the MMA fighter and not get knocked out. If the bully gets knocked out, quits or the referee stops the fight before the end of the round, he gets nothing. If the bully manages to knock out the MMA fighter, he gets a $5,000 bonus. Any money deducted from the bully in either rounds 1 or 2 will go to the victims.
NOTE: These rules are subject to change.
At the end of the show, Miller calculates the winnings and tells the bully how much he has lost and how much is going to the victims. After the fight is over, one would hope that the bully will have learned a valuable lesson and will stop picking on people smaller and weaker than him.
