The Professional Fighters League arrives in Latin America through the new DIRECTV Sports FIGHT channel
DIRECTV will air an exclusive fight channel, which will broadcast the 2022 Mixed Martial Arts season, thanks to an agreement with Torneos.
From February 18 and on the DIRECTV grid, a new channel dedicated exclusively to combat sports will be available: DIRECTV Sports FIGHT, which will broadcast the 2022 season of Mixed Martial Arts, of the League of Professional Fighters (PFL, for its acronym in English), which lands in Latin America.
This new and innovative proposal is possible thanks to an agreement between DIRECTV and Torneos, which acquired the PFL's television rights.
Also participating in the deal is Athletic Sports Group and its subsidiary Fight Globe, the world's largest combat sports distributor. A great alliance to bring the best content to the region.
DIRECTV will exclusively broadcast all the fights of the Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) championship, regular season and playoffs to users in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay and the Caribbean. Starting February 18, “DIRECTV Sports FIGHT” will broadcast live evenings and exclusive original content. The channel will be found on DIRECTV's 620 grid or 1620HD, and also on its DIRECTV GO streaming platform.
Two outstanding South American fighters participated in the presentation of this historic agreement for the PFL: Brazilian Bruno Cappelozza, 2021 world champion in the heavyweight category, and Argentine Emiliano Sordi, 2019 light heavyweight champion. Both fighters are part of the PFL talent pool along with Raush Manfio and Antonio Carlos Jr., from Brazil, and Alexander Martínez, from Paraguay, among others.
