Combat sports app FITE TV launches on LG

Combat sports streamer FITE TV has launched on LG Smart TVs.

The app is available on LG Smart TVs launched from 2018 onwards, and offers access to a wide range of premium PPV events, SVOD packages and free programming. The launch coincides with the all-women SuperWomen boxing event on March 5, and the anticipated pro wrestling PPV AEW Revolution 2021 on March 7.

Louis Lewow, FITE’s VP, Distribution said: “We enjoyed working with the LG teams on the launch of FITE on their huge ecosystem of Smart TVs worldwide. FITE offers more than 1,000 events a year so there’s a lot more viewing options.”

Matt Durgin, LG Electronics USA’s Senior Director of Smart TV Partnerships, said: “The debut of the FITE app on our LG webOS Smart TVs adds access to a wide range of top-flight sports and entertainment programming for our consumers. Big matches call for the biggest and best TVs. Our LG Smart TVs, especially our LG OLED TVs, and the must-watch content FITE delivers is a winning combination that delivers a front row seat to all of the action from the comfort of your home.”
