CSI Sports, a provider of televised fighting content, has signed a carriage deal for its new 24/7 HD Network Fight Sports with Pay-TV operator, Telia, becoming Scandinavia’s first dedicated network to support the entire genre through exclusive events and original programming.

The channel will be launched by Telia in Sweden on January 15th and by Sonera in Finland later this month.

The launch on Scandinavia’s leading Pay-Tv operator continues the rapid global expansion of the Fight Sports Network. Since launching in December 2012, CSI Sports has already secured multiple carriage deals with operators across Europe and the Asia Pacific region that has taken the Fight Sports Network into two dozen countries within two years.

Craig Miele, Co-CEO, CSI Sports, said “We are proud to announce the launch of Fight Sports on TELIA and look forward to providing the passionate fan base across Scandinavia with some of the best fights supported by our exclusive programing and original series, all in one destination”
