| http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2012/8/20/3256579/k-1-k1-spike-agreement-live-stream-broadcastK-1 has announced a new deal that will bring the kickboxing organization into US homes. K-1 and Spike have signed an agreement for all K-1 shows to be shown in the US. For the remaining four K-1 shows in 2012, including their next show on September 8 in Los Angeles, the events will be broadcast via web stream at Spike.com. Starting in 2013, the shows will air on TV at Spike. For the 2012 streaming shows, Spike is promising "live coverage of every fight on the card, including all the prelims." Exact details on the 2013 broadcasts are not yet announced. | |

| I'm assuming the Zuffa deal is what is keeping them of SPIKE TV until 2013. But I think this could end up being a great move. I hope it really takes off. | |

|  I can't wait for SPIKE to have K-1 and Bellator in 2013. | |

I hope both Bellator and K-1 start it off with a bang. Would be nice to see them both take off. | |

| Sounds like a nice move.
Helps make Spike that much more of a player in combat sports programming.
And one wonders if this possibly leads to K-1 to Bellator cross overs, and vice versa. Would be that much sweeter. | |
