Hi adirtykid,
As they say in the answer section...
"There we have a Gray area..."
We've been talking with them and even had an offer from them, but the reality is, they just don't have a lot of program space to offer or fill.
There are several issues related to the talks we've had with them and the current Kickboxing programing as well. As much as we would all like to see Kickboxing as a regular program on a station like ESPN, the fact is, it may never happen. Especially now with NFL season coming up. If you notice, NFL has had a lot of air time with NFL specials etc... Can't blame them for pleasing the proven programs that bring them the top $$$.
We do know you will see IKF Kickboxing on ESPN, soon. It has nothing to do with money in case you may be thinking this. Heck, we'd do it for free just to get our sport on TV. It "NEEDS" This!
The main issue here is program space on ESPN and ESPN 2. There just isn't much available.
Regardless of the delays, we know it WILL Happen. We just hate talking about it until it's actually "In the can" as they say in filming"...
What we will also say though is "Don't forget the many other cable stations out there." We have several things in the mix and again we say, It WILL Happen...
