We’ve agreed deals with television stations in both Poland and Croatia to screen future shows.
The deal is with mainstream stations, meaning BKB™ will reach millions more people.
Croatian viewers will want to follow the career of their new world champion.
Marko Martinjak was one of the stars of BKB 29, a couple of weeks ago. Chad Kelly came from the States with an unbeaten record and a big reputation, while Marko had been out of the ring for a few years.
Marko produced one of the performances of the year and one of the knockouts of the year.
He shook up Chad, dropped him and finished him with a sweet left hook.
I had a feeling Marko would do that. He is a machine!
I remember him fighting on BKB 1 all those years ago and he had a stoppage win over Travis Dickinson, who won the English light-heavyweight title as a gloved pro and was managed by Frank – now Kellie – Maloney.
Marko had a hard pro gloved career, forever fighting top prospects at short notice in their back yard.
He gets 50-50 fights in BKB™ – and keeps winning them!
Marko has now stopped his last six opponents with BKB™ and it’s not just Croatian fans who are looking forward to his next fight. Everyone at BKB™ is looking forward to it.
We are confident that once Polish viewers start watching BKB™ shows regularly, we will have more fighters from there wanting to be a part of our future and follow in the footsteps of Szymon Szynkiewicz.
The show in Thailand in January is another step towards making BKB™ the global brand I always said it would be and I’m sure 2023 is going to be an exciting year for all of us!
Until next week
