    I see MTK have done a deal with ESPN to show their cards in America. Great news for them. More money coming in should only make for better cards. MTK seem to be growing and growing as a company. As long this doesn't lead to MTK PPV shows!

    Would not suprise me if MTK build and and up with a mainstream TV deal at some point.

    I'm looking at it from a fan's perspective, not from a business perspective, so I'd rather they don't go down the PPV route.

    The industry looks to be moving away from the current model towards subscription apps, the good news is they will have a massive appetite for new content, which is where MTK have come in with 30 shows to pad out the ESPN offering. They get to continue building their live show experience, their guys get exposure overseas and ESPN can provide their route to PPV. What may be of more interest to MTK though is the position they will be in when the Sky Matchroom deal comes to an end?

    This company has made massive strides in the game. Fairplay.
