The agreement marks a significant step forward for TBL as it expands its audience reach across both commercial venues and digital streaming platforms worldwide. Under the agreement, MAS will distribute TBL events and programming through its established network of 7,000+ commercial partners – including bars, restaurants, and casinos – while also leveraging its growing presence across Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) platforms and direct-to-consumer channels.

Metro Anthem Sports brings more than 45 years of experience in the sports and entertainment industry, with deep roots in the promotion and distribution of live boxing and professional wrestling. Drawing on decades of experience working directly with promoters, venues, and fighters, Metro Anthem Sports has evolved into a rights-driven distribution company focused on maximizing the value and reach of live combat sports content.
