Fight Sport was only available for a year on OpenView and created for fans of boxing, sumo and wrestling. OpenView confirmed that today will be their last day on their platform.
Details on its removal still remain a mystery as this came in as a last minute announcement kind of like the time BBC World News was swapped for the French lifestyle channel, France24.
2020 has been a hectic year for cable providers where platforms like OpenView, Starsat and DStv have been witnesses loss of channels. To make for those losses they've been working around the clock to source out more content and channels.
Throughout 2020, OpenView managed to launch 3 unwatchable channels with one of them being a Mindset+ channel which is deemed useful. According to reports, they were planning to rollout more channels on top of a streaming service but due to the complications of covid19 there have been some minor setbacks.
Good news is OpenView will be rolling out more channels likely by November. According to witnesses, there's more than one channel rolling out and there's been speculation that one of them is an entertainment channel.
Even though, Fight Sports will no longer be available on the platform viewers can still enjoy the best of Impact and other sporting events on News&Sports (channel 120).
