The third season of reality boxing show The Contender premiered at 8pm on Saturday, hosted by boxing legend and five-time world champion Sugar Ray Leonard.

The series follows the unscripted and often dramatic lives, fears and hopes of 16 of the best super-middleweight fighters in the US, as they compete for a chance to win $1million.

Sugar Ray guides the boxers through the most intense training of their careers to fight for the biggest challenge of their lives.

Another killer series Dexter makes its debut on Dubai One, starting on February 21 at 9pm.

Based on the novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter, the critically acclaimed smash hit show stars Michael C Hall of Six Feet Under fame.

Dexter Morgan is a jovial employee in the Miami Metropolitan Police Department's crime lab, but his meticulously crafted life masks his true nature as a clinical and murderous psychopath (a self-professed 'monster') who satisfies his blood lust at night by carefully eliminating the serial killers he tracks down during the day.
