Fight Night
Grissom, Sara and Warrick investigate the brutal world of boxing when a middleweight boxing champ dies in the ring after taking a brutal beating from his nemesis. Grissom finds evidence that points to murder. Outside, in a nearby parking lot, Catherine works a crime scene where a Los Angeles gang member was gunned down, apparently by a rival gang. Also, Nick investigates a 'smash and grab' at a jewelry store, which soon turns into more than a simple robbery than may involve an insurance scam.
Synopsis
‘Fight Night’ in Las Vegas: busy, busy, busy. A boxing champ dies in the ring after taking a brutal beating from his nemesis, but Grissom finds evidence that points to murder.

Review
Sara processes the boxing ring with Warrick, showing one of her only aversions: saliva. She doesn’t know much about boxing, and is not impressed with the sport. There’s a Sara and Hank moment, as he shows her the ‘wraps’ taken off the boxer on the way to the hospital. She admires Warrick as he demonstrates the difference between normal gloves and weighted gloves.
Notes
- Sara has an aversion to saliva.
- Sara doesn’t know much about boxing, and doesn’t like it as a sport.
Quotes
Sara: Nice sport.
Warrick: Well, it’s only dirty if you make it dirty. You know, boxing’s about discipline.
Sara: It’s two guys beating their brains out in a race for early-onset Parkinson’s.
Warrick: What’ve you got?
Sara: Saliva.
Warrick: Oh, spit bucket. (pauses as Sidle picks up the bucket with a rather odd grin) What’s so funny?
Sara: Smiling, uh, supresses the gag reflex.
Warrick: This from the same woman who processed fecal fat from a ruptured colon?
Sara: Every crim’s got at least on problem area. Mine’s saliva.
Warrick: Want me to get that [bucket] for you?
Sara: No! No.
Warrick: You sure?
Sara: Mind and body. Right?
Sara: So why did you keep hitting, because real fighters don’t stop hitting until somebody makes them, right? When you’re in the ring, your life’s in the ref’s hands.
