ESPN have announced that they have signed UFC Lightweight Kenny "Ken-Flo" Florian to host a new online MMA show.The show is still very much in the trial phase at the moment, with plans to make three online episodes to guage the audience. If this is successful, they plan to make a weekly internet broadcast. Depending on the success and demand from the audience, it may then make it onto TV.
Kenny is very excited about the move, here is what he said “(It’s) kind of a fast-paced show on the current news and events going on in the sport. There’s a whole lot of guys at ESPN that have been trying to get this done I guess for two years,”
The show will talk about all aspects of the sport, including various promotions including the UFC, EliteXC, Dream, and other organizations. Florian will be just one of the hosts, working along side ESPN’s John Anik and Newark Star-Ledger reporter Franklin McNeil.
Each show will be 30 mins long, with the first show debuting tonight on ESPN.com.
