Cage Warriors secures FreeSports platform

Cage Warriors, the mixed martial arts event promoter, has secured a deal with UK free-to-air digital channel FreeSports.

Under the agreement, FreeSports will show live coverage of Cage Warriors events, starting this Saturday, September 16, with Cage Warriors 86, which is taking place in London.

FreeSports will also show the remaining three Cage Warriors shows this year, although the length of the deal was not disclosed.

The agreement will sit alongside Cage Warriors’ existing UK rights deal with pay-television broadcaster BT Sport, as well as the organisation’s digital-streaming partnership with The Sport Bible, which offers coverage via its page on social networking website Facebook.

FreeSports is available on the BT, Freesat, Freeview, Sky and TalkTalk subscription platforms.
