Fight Quest is a television show on the Discovery Channel that had a preview episode air on December 28, 2007 and began airing weekly on January 4, 2008. The show followed Jimmy Smith and Doug Anderson as they travel around the world learning different styles of martial arts, spending five days training with notable masters of the styles they are studying, before exhibiting what they have learned in a final demonstration and/or fight. According to quotes by the hosts, the show was mostly unscripted and a true challenge.

A really cool show I always liked to watch. Pretty much all episodes can be found on YouTube/DailyMotion.
The show was cancelled in Season 2 because Discovery Channel wanted to move away from 'violent' programming (and subsequently moved away from quality programming altogether and decided to focus on shovelling all these horrendous scripted 'reality' shows down our throats). However I saw some rumors about a third season floating on the net so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
