Following their success and growing audience, Primetime have announced that it will begin broadcasting MMA events starting with Moosin 2 on Friday 21st May with Tim Silva and Mariusz Pudzianowski. Up until now Primetime have focussed scheduling on boxing and are the only UK broadcaster to show all fights in the Super Six World Boxing Classic Super Middleweight’s tournament.

The Moosin event will be broadcast live from the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts and will be a nine bout fight card including the headline fight.

It will be the first time former UFC champion Tim Sylvia has fought since he halted his three-fight losing streak and scored a TKO against Jason Riley in the first round. Many MMA fans see five times World’s Strongest Man Mariusz Pudzianowski as a novelty act but since his MMA debut in December ended after just 43 seconds when his opponent was forced to submit to strikes Pudzianowski sheer brute strength is not to be argued with.

The line up will also include Travis Lutter Vs Rafael Natal and Yves Edwards Vs Mike Campbell.

The event will be available for an introductory price of only £5.95 and can be seen on Primetime, channel 480 on Sky on Friday night 21st May.
