Cage Fury Fighting Championship hails ‘game-changing’ CBS Sports Network deal

US pay-television broadcaster CBS Sports Network has struck a deal with the Cage Fury Fighting Championship to broadcast at least four events from the mixed martial arts series on an exclusive basis in 2015.

CBS Sports Network will begin its coverage with a live broadcast of CFFC 48, which will take place at the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on May 14.

CBS Sports Network will also broadcast a CFFC event on June 6 at the Sand Casino Resort in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, along with two further events at the Borgata on July 18 and October 31.

“This is a game-changer for us,” CFFC president Mike Constantino said. “We’ve worked extremely hard over the years to reach an industry-level position that recognises CFFC as a leader and this agreement with CBS Sports Network only helps to solidify that position.”
