The entire fight card for the July 19 "Affliction: Banned" card will be televised thanks to a new deal the upstart fight promotion has reached with FSN.
The main card of the event, which takes place at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., airs via pay per view, and the night's preliminary card will now air on FSN, a collection of cable TV regional sports networks located throughout the U.S.
TAGG Radio, first reported the FSN deal last week, and Affliction officials confirmed it during yesterday's public events in Los Angeles and New York City.
Affliction's debut features a main event of former PRIDE title-holder Fedor Emelianenko vs. UFC champ Tim Sylvia, as well as an undercard full of familiar names. Just yesterday the organization announced the addition of Paul Buentello vs. Aleksander Emelianenko to the fight card.
Affliction also recently announced the signing of former PRIDE fighter Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (13-3), the twin brother of current UFC interim heavyweight champ Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.
