Guilty Goes Global!

LAS VEGAS (January 27, 2005) – Guilty Productions has become a major player among the heavyweights of professional boxing broadcast programming, expanding the reach of its “Guilty Fight Night” weekly series to more than 33-million households across the United States and worldwide. Founded in 2004, Guilty Productions, along with its parent company, Guilty Boxing, annually provides a minimum of 48 episodes of “Guilty Fight Night” that also includes an extensive amount of high-quality features and behind the scene looks of the events and fighters. Guilty’s broadcast team is a KO combination with Boxing Hall of Fame announcer Colonel Bob Sheridan, handling blow-by-blow action at ringside, and former NFL kicker and veteran color analyst, Benny Ricardo.

Earlier this week Guilty Productions announced multi-year telecast rights agreements with America One in the U.S. (23-million households) and Fox Sports International in the Middle East and portions of Africa (1.52 million households), augmenting previous deals with BEN Television in Great Britain and Ireland (7.34 millions households), as well as WCVI, the UPN affiliate in the Virgin Island (750,000 households). “Guilty Productions was a first-time exhibitor at the NATPE Conference and Exhibition this week and it’s been a very successful show,” Jay Hassman, Vice President of Guilty Boxing, reported from Las Vegas.

“We’re adding broadcast and cable platforms to our already outstanding carriage, domestic and international. This is just the start for Guilty. We are building one of the largest boxing distribution platforms that the boxing category has ever seen in order for our fighters to become household names.”
