Pursuit Media Announces Strategic Partnership with American Kombat Alliance (AKA)
A New Era Begins for American Kombat Alliance
Beginning immediately, Pursuit Media will distribute AKA content across Pursuit Channel, Pursuit UP, and Pursuit+, dramatically expanding the reach of one of America’s fastest-growing combat sports organizations.
This partnership marks a major milestone in AKA’s continued growth and represents another step toward establishing American Kombat Alliance as a premier destination for combat sports entertainment.
Bringing AKA to Millions of New Fans
Since launching in Louisiana in 2017, American Kombat Alliance has grown from a regional promotion into a nationally recognized combat sports organization known for delivering exciting fights, elite talent, and unforgettable live events.
Now, through Pursuit Media’s extensive television and streaming network, AKA will be introduced to millions of passionate viewers across the United States.
Rock Bordelon, Majority Owner of Pursuit Media, shared his excitement about the partnership:
“AKA represents the next generation of combat sports—raw, exciting, and deeply American. We are thrilled to bring their high-energy events and compelling content to audiences across our television and streaming platforms.”
More Than Live Fights
The partnership extends well beyond fight night, creating a new home for American Kombat Alliance content across multiple platforms.
Fans can look forward to:
- Live AKA fight events
- An extensive library of past events
- Original AKA programming
- Exclusive behind-the-scenes content
- Interviews and podcasts
- Future special productions
This expanded programming gives fans more access than ever before, allowing them to experience everything that makes American Kombat Alliance unique—not just inside the cage, but behind the scenes as well.
Building the Future of Combat Sports
AKA Founder and CEO Amber Bishop reflected on how far the organization has come.
“As a female-owned organization, American Kombat Alliance has always been driven by a vision to create opportunities for fighters while delivering an exciting, first-class experience for fans. Since founding AKA in Louisiana in 2017, what started as a small regional promotion has grown into a nationwide combat sports organization.”
She continued:
“We are excited to begin this new journey with Pursuit Media and introduce AKA to audiences across the country. This partnership represents an incredible opportunity to continue growing our brand, expanding our reach, and showcasing the talent, passion, and professionalism that define American Kombat Alliance. We believe the best is yet to come, and we look forward to building something truly special together.”
A Win for Fans, Fighters, and Partners
This partnership creates exciting opportunities for everyone involved. Fans will have more ways to watch AKA than ever before, fighters will compete before a significantly larger audience, and sponsors will benefit from expanded national television and streaming exposure.
Through television broadcasts, streaming services, social media promotion, and live event branding, both organizations are positioned for tremendous growth in the years ahead.
The Future Starts Now
The first broadcasts under the new partnership begin this week, with additional programming rolling out over the coming months. Fans can expect live events, exclusive programming, and new original content as American Kombat Alliance continues its national expansion.
What began as a Louisiana-based promotion has evolved into one of the country’s fastest-growing combat sports organizations. With Pursuit Media now bringing AKA into millions of homes nationwide, the future has never looked brighter.
