Kevin James to moonlight as an MMA fighter
Allan Loeb wrote the script, which centers on Kevin James' character, an affable physics professor who moonlights as a mixed martial arts fighter. He takes on the second gig due to budget cutbacks at his school, and he's trying to earn enough money to save his friend's job and the school's music program. It was said his fighting path will take him all the way up to the Ultimate Fighting Championship circuit.
Sony has distributed Kevin James' recent movies Paul Blart: Mall Cop, Grown Ups and the upcoming comedy The Zookeeper, which is set for release on July 8, 2011
Deadline New York reports that Sony has put the movie on the fast track, and hopes to go into production sometime next year. No director has been attached at this time. Kevin James will also produce the movie along with Todd Garner.

@Diagma lol the hat says FDNY - its a pic from when he portrayed a New York Fire Fighter in Chuck and Larry lol
Im all for movies with KJ, but i hate when he collaborates with Adam Sandler. I hate Sandler with a passion. he hasnt been funny since Billy Madison. I would say that Happy Gilmore was alright, but its been on TBS or WGN or WB or whatever every god damn Sunday for the past 10 years. Enough already!
