“We
worked extremely fast to get this developed, launched, and
available in the Amazon Fire TV store because we believe that OTT
TV distribution of our proprietary action-packed live content is a
game changer in the market for fans of MMA,” commented Greg P.
Bell, Chairman & CEO of B2Digital. “Now, the remaining B2
Fighting Series fights of 2020 will be Live on PPV on Amazon Fire
TV with our top-tier amateur and professional Live MMA events. Our
major title bouts and rising stars of MMA that our hardcore fans
love to watch can now be viewed on Amazon Fire TV. We will also
have exciting news very soon on delivering the B2 Fighting Series
over Apple TV.”
Management notes that over 40 million viewers consume
content through Amazon Fire TV as of January 2020, which represents
over 18% growth on a year-over-year basis, and a sizeable lead of
nearly 8 million viewers over Roku, according to TechCrunch.
Overall, analysts calculate the OTT live sports market to be worth
an estimated $6.8 billion annually.
The B2
Fighting Series App for Amazon Fire TV was developed in conjunction
with PRESTOSPORTS, LLC (“PrestoSports”), a leader in digital sports
entertainment distribution, who is also assisting in the
development of other versions of the app targeting additional OTT
platforms.
As noted
in the Company’s release dated September 24, B2Digital is pursuing
a unique monetization model for its OTT app product, with free
download using an email address, no monthly subscription, and free
access to all content other than LIVE PPV event content, which will
be available for a PPV charge, and then made free 36 hours after
the conclusion of the event.
Bell
added, “We are moving toward some of our biggest and most exciting
events ever, our B2InstaStore PPV marketing model is beginning to
have a material impact as a viral sales engine, and now, with the
launch of our Amazon Fire TV OTT presence, we have massively
widened our distribution footprint. If you add in the fact that
there seems to be a pent-up demand dynamic in play right now in the
live sports market as a pandemic effect, the result is a perfect
storm that should be very exciting for B2Digital shareholders over
coming months.”
