Indongo's fight live on NBC
The Namibian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) will broadcast this weekend's title fight between Namibia's Julius Indongo and America's Terence Crawford live.
The WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF super lightweight title unification bout will take at the Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska on Sunday at 02:00 Namibian time.
The American has agreed to defend his WBC and WBO belts against Indongo, who puts his WBA and IBF titles on the line.
The national broadcaster's rights were made possible after the signing of a channel distribution agreement with Kwesé Free TV Limited.
This enabled NBC to provide the nation with a host of live international sporting events on its DTT platform.
Kwesé Free Sports on nbc6 is the latest addition on the NBC DTT platform.
NBC's executive sport producer Sackie Shikufa said: “As promised with the launch of Kwesé Free Sports on nbc6, the live free-to-air coverage of some of the best in global sports is now available to the Namibian public.
“Our mandate to educate, inform and entertain remains our number one priority; hence the NBC team worked hard to attain the rights to this boxing match.”
The NBC holds the bragging rights in being the only Namibian television station to broadcast the bout and clinched a sub-licence agreement which will allow the broadcaster to simulcast the boxing match on nbc1.
