Fubo has debuted a new free, ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channel dedicated to a combat sport.
The channel, called BKFC TV, offers matches from Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, including BKFC Prospect Series and BKFC Fight Night.
BKFC TV first rolled out to fight fans within the BKFC app. Through Fubo, the channel is now available outside the app for the first time.
“BKFC fight content took off on our Fubo Sports FAST channel, and we couldn’t wait to bring a dedicated BKFC network to Fubo’s live TV streaming platform,” said Pamela Duckworth, the lead executive in charge of Fubo Studios. “Fans crave high-energy combat sports, and we continue to see that trend hold true with BKFC fights. Now, Fubo subscribers can watch BKFC content around the clock.”
“Fubo has been a great partner for BKFC,” said BKFC Founder and CEO David Feldman. “We have achieved phenomenal viewership on Fubo Sports, and thought the timing was perfect for us to launch our FAST channel with Fubo. We look forward to giving the fans nonstop BKFC action any time of the day, any day of the week.”
Though described as a FAST channel, BKFC TV is currently only available on Fubo and the BKFC app. It was not clear from Fubo’s announcement on Thursday if the channel will be distributed on other FAST platforms in the future, as is the case with the Fubo Sports Network.
