"We are very excited to be carried on this cutting-edge platform developed by PlayTV," said George Burger, President & CEO of The Fight Network. "Our strategic priority is to expand The Fight Network brand around the world on all platforms to reach every fight fan, everywhere, at anytime. The technology that PlayTV and its partners have developed enable specialty services like ours that have a unique sports content package and huge fan appeal to reach them in ways that were not available just a couple of years ago. Broadband delivery is the future, and the future is here with PlayTV."
The Fight Network is already hugely popular across the Canada, delivering the best of mixed martial arts(MMA) the fastest growing combatant sports in the world (featuring brands such as Montreal's TKO, the UK's own Cage Rage and Rumble on the Rock from Hawaii), boxing (including specialist 'Ballroom Boxing' and 'Guilty Boxing'); wrestling (featuring 'Ring of Honour' and 'Memphis Wrestling'); and other combat styles; along with fight theme films (with underground material from 'Tough-Guy Cinema'); documentaries, television series and breaking news.
Launched in September 2005, The Fight Network is available on virtually every cable and satellite carrier across Canada. In addition, its weekly radio show The LAW (Live Audio Wrestling) is heard on terrestrial stations in Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver, while its daily show Fight Network Radio is heard on Sirius channel 186 across North America hosted by Mauro Ranallo. Its news content and exclusive merchandise is also marketed on its website, www.thefightnetwork.com
Mr. James Thompson, director of PlayTV UK, says: "We knew GDB could take PlayTV global and our imminent launch is made all the more exciting with deals of this stature. It is certainly a great accolade for a British platform to be hosting eight channels from the world's leading MMA and combatant sports network."
Mr. David Wray, GDB co-founder and CTO, comments: "The GDB platform is a perfect fit for these guys and I can see The Fight Network becoming a leading sports multi-channel on PlayTV, especially with the ever-growing number of fight fans in the UK."
Mr. Jim Deans, co-founder and managing director of GDB, adds: "Seeing this deal come to fruition days before heading out to Amsterdam to demonstrate the portal at IBC2007, means that we can include The Fight Network in our trade launch at one of the most prestigious technology conventions in the world."

Vance you confused me today...I mean If I can't rely upon you, then who? tell me vance who?...who knew!
It's not then and it's not when ..it's now baby! right now! THAT REALLY MATTERS..:)
Bang Bang...Allotti.
The total number of shareholders who converted their preferred shares to restricted common shares was a relatively small percentage compared to those who had the opportunity to convert but chose not to.
HA! - the number of shareholders that converted was relatively low, yet it is unknown what the number of shares
converted is and in fact the relatively low number of share holders may have in fact the largest number of convertable shares....buyer beware!
Ok.
OT yo lazy mofo I said with cheese and extra mayo...hahahaha
Oh! baby!
I've got the number....Allotti. *maniacal laughter* drinks~.
And now we turn the page....lol
and....GO!
GLTA Allotti...bang bang
Morning crew how you doing...:)
Wishing everyone ~ a good week!
Allotti.
My opine! Photog..the fact that BOC is obligated to honor BKMP's 20% stake in all of it's interests relating to The Brand, "The Fight Network"....it would behoove the Hammer and the Bambino to look alive and see the big picture in what this Brand offers....And frankly I believe they do..:)..quantifying such a truly exponetially lucurative yet proven dynamic such as the Fight Network and Our 20% stake is not childs play...effectively representing the share structure favorably to the shareholder including the bambino..is proving to be a dance least wanted.....
Allotti.
OT I wonder, out loud, if BOC will look at the other bidders before signing away TFN....hmmmm :)!
~imo~ Allotti...bang bang
brovo photog...alot of experts have graced this place...hrhr throwing around the notion to convert...buyer beware...conversion will get you a r/s eventually...imo
other than that I'm poppin a cork ~ cubana time
Allotti....bang bang
cc/
hahahaha show me your teeeeets and we'll talk about it...hahahaaaaa
IMHO~~~~~~~because the buyer is offering a sweet deal! And being a significant multi media company with an eye on the big picture in an industry of cut throat competition and also having a great sense of viewer acuity and thereby understanding the exponetial value of this brand...makes the deal so much sweeter...like sugar!
Thatz why we be high priced ho's...!;)
IMO
Are you telling me that you believe BC/TFN/BKMP is a desperate ho...the art of negotiation forbids such a notion!
artfink stop playing around...no less than fifty!
what's 20% of BC worth...BKMP's vested interest in BC is a negotiatable value. I know the bambino once said that he would not give it up for less than .20.....I wonder, out loud, if that has changed?... this fight game is golden.
I know, I am a high priced Ho...so if you want my flava you are going to pay top dollar..haha
Let's drink! Allotti...bang bang
yes mimurray I believe the pr indicated that the company was "on track"....and as someone else said, "thats fine with me I may have time to increase my holdings"...:)
Allotti
keyword~ "Global" ~yes I agree...
Ok time for a walk....:)
Allotti...bang bang
significant multi-media communications company ...
What say you, Vance ,about that?...:)
Allotti...
I'll take that one...shareholders diluted for the most part..and if any of them that diluted had any balls they would man up and raise their hands now..hahahahaaa
IMO I hope they don't! ha.
Allotti...
I know atleast one person that told me personally that he had sent his shares in for conversion...So I'm sure others have as well and this alone will increase the O/S...bad move!
GO! Allotti...
