Lights Out which was a 1(season) & done show on FX last year was a very interesting behind the scenes look at a fictional boxing champ. Holt McCallany a career character actor finally gets his chance to take the lead role. He plays that of retired former Heavyweight Boxing champ Patrick "Lights" Leary. Leary has been retired for about 5 years now after he lost his title to "Death Row" Reynolds the current champ. But after financial troubles force him to come out of retirement he gets back into the boxing ring. Much to his wife's disappointment since she was the one who talked him into retiring in the first place since she didn't want to see him take any more punishment.
Very good acting by everyone involved in the cast and a real shame the show got the axe after only 1 season.
