I also want to point out that the tournament from the first show isn't exactly what they have lined up for this one.
From what I understand Holzken isn't certain just yet, in fact, he might be done with them altogether.

Josh Jauncey vs Max Baumert? I believe I saw something like that somewhere.

So what do you thinks guys, who take the HW belt? If zimmerman fight very aggressive and is in killer mode, he should win this by ko within 2 rounds. Rico has no chin, ko power or speed. Errol should fight very aggressive, the risk to be caught by a big one that will put him down is too small . Rico has no speeed and ko power. With his Ko power and chin, he should get through his strikes and Land the big one on rico bad chin. It should work.  |

As always I will be rooting for Errol but I've given up on him fulfilling the best of his abilities. I think I've posted it here before but he is his own worst enemy. I think back to that night when Errol sparked out Rico in their first fight, the same night Hari and Saki created a pre fight atmosphere (from my TV screen, anyway) that I don't think has been matched since, but the less wrote about the fight itself, the better. It seems a long time ago now, doesn't it?

Because the new CEO, that Franklin guy, says apparently they sell the SuperFight Series to around 30 countries and are making money off it. It doesn't matter that nobody has been able to figure out up till now which countries those are (and nobody interviewing this dude thought up to just ask him straight which countries are showing SFS :facepalm: , just let him bullshit as much as he likes I guess). And apparently they are working to have it broadcasted in US too, for like a 10th time. But don't worry, they will figure it out sometime soon LoL

If they are making money on those TV deals it can't be that much or they would be going out of the gate more often.
Just a totally uneducated guess but the old "we can't air the SFS straight away" cobblers was also trotted out by the previous CEO, Andrew Whittaker, who may have signed a draconian type of deal which GLORY are still contractually bound to and Mr. Franklin can't do jack about it.
Is Ristie still down to fight Aekpracha on the 31/1? That's a pretty quick turn around to be facing 2 quality fighters, even if your nickname is 'The Machine'.

The SuperFight Series is contractually bound to a few networks internationally as first-run programming. They air it on tape delay and pay okay money for it (not great money).
That's why there are all of these problems. Whittaker was treating these shows as they were fucking WWE Smackdown tapings. If you don't know how those work, WWE tapes Smackdown on Tuesdays and spins it off into two different shows; Main Event and Smackdown. Main Event was sold into syndication (think SFS) while Smackdown is aired later in the week. It's obvious he came from pro wrestling because pro wrestling has been doing this since the dawn of television. Hell, WWE tapes NXT shows four weeks in advance. They put on one, huge marathon of a show and then split it up into four weeks of TV.
I get what he was going for, but it's kind of stupid.

You know what networks exactly bought SuperFight Series? I know that EuroSport if showing shows the full event, also lately noticed ExtremeSports Channel has been airing initial Glory shows (also full) but what else?
