One Championship has a new, big-name broadcast partner in North America.

The Singapore-based promotion announced on Wednesday that it has entered into a five-year deal with Amazon Prime Video to broadcast 12 events annually in primetime live in the United States and Canada. The first event and the full calendar are expected to be announced soon. Those 12 events will be available exclusively on Prime Video in the United States and Canada.

“One Championship is thrilled to work with Prime Video, one of the largest premium sports content providers in the world, to bring our live events closer to fans in the United States and Canada,” One CEO Chatri Sityodtong said in a release.

“As the world’s largest martial arts organization, we believe our collaboration with Prime Video will allow us to reach a wider North American audience that is hungry for an authentic and differentiated product you simply cannot get with any other organization. We look forward to showcasing the absolute greatest martial artists on the planet, right here in the One Championship Circle and on Prime Video.”

Amazon Prime Video has a growing catalog of live sports offerings to its name, including WNBA, the Seattle Storm, the New York Yankees, and Seattle Sounders FC in the United States as well as other leagues and games internationally.

“We are proud to add exclusive coverage of One Championship events to our suite of marquee live sports offerings,” said Amazon vice president of global sports video Marie Donoghue. “In addition to offering a full suite of martial arts disciplines, One Championship shares our mutual commitment to elevate female athletes, boasting five reigning female world champions.”

One Championship is the first mixed martial promotion to air on Amazon Prime. Those who are exisiting Prime subscribers will have access to all One events with no additional fees.
