FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif. -- Sherdog.com, the largest and most trusted
MMA website, joins production and streaming partner iBN Sports to produce “Fight Week
LIVE” at select events across the nation as a complement to its
upcoming weekly studio production, “Fight Week.” The live show will
be a fast-paced format previewing upcoming fights with news,
professional analysis of the card, interviews with fighters and
celebrity co-hosts.
The anchor show, “Fight Week,” comes to Sherdog.com and iBNSports.com in July, 2010. The preview episode of “Fight Week LIVE” kicks off Wednesday, June 16 during The E3 Expo and “Strikeforce Live” in Los Angeles at the Nokia Live Theatre.
“We are very excited to work with Sherdog in creating a ‘Live’ show on fight day that gives the fans a full serving of MMA,” says Sam Strayer, Executive Producer at iBN Sports. “Sherdog’s fan-base, access, and unmatched news coupled with iBN Sports’ production and infrastructure will change the way MMA fans consume content online.”
The next episode of “Fight Week LIVE” will broadcast from the much anticipated “Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Werdum” card in San Jose, Calif., on June 26.
“With iBN Sport’s expertise in this field, ‘Fight Week’ and ‘Fight Week Live’ will allow Sherdog.com to deliver its readers the latest news, features, and expert analysis in a whole new medium,” said Loretta Hunt, news editor for Sherdog.com and the ‘Fight Week’ shows. “Delivering the most complete coverage we can to MMA fans is what Sherdog.com is all about.”
