MMAmania.com spoke to ESPN about its agreement with GLORY kickboxing that was announced earlier today (Nov. 5, 2015) for GLORY 25, which will be aired on ESPN3 and ESPN 2 on Friday evening.
News broke earlier today on GLORY coming to an agreement with ESPN to broadcast GLORY 25 tomorrow afternoon (Fri., Nov. 6, 2015) live on ESPN 3 and later on ESPN2 via tape delay (details here).
The reaction from GLORY brass was positive. That's because the kickboxing promotion was actively seeking a new broadcast deal long before official world came down that it would split from its its long-time partner, Spike TV.
