Victory Fighting League –
Live Broadcast from Times Square

Live MMA from the Heart of Times Square

On August 15, 2025, Victory Fighting League made sports history. This debut event wasn't just a league launch—it was the first time an MMA fight had ever been broadcast live from Times Square, New York City. Producing a high-velocity combat sports event in the world’s busiest outdoor location presented unique technical and logistical hurdles that required elite-level leadership.

Directing Under Pressure

John Carboni was brought in as the Live Broadcast Director to command this unprecedented production. Operating in a high-stakes, high-security environment, John collaborated with the technical team from Flypack New York to engineer a clean, broadcast-grade show for a global audience.

Project Highlights:

• A World First: The first live MMA show from the Times Square plaza.
• Tough Tech: We beat the signal noise of Midtown to keep the feed clear.
• Fast Action: We used many cameras and instant replays for a fast show.
• Zero Risks: We built a plan to protect the brand of this new league.

The Result: A Flawless Global Launch

Despite the extreme variables of an outdoor Manhattan production, the broadcast was technically flawless. Every angle was captured, every replay was timed with precision, and the Victory Fighting League successfully launched its global brand to an international audience.

This project remains a definitive example of Impact Studios' ability to deliver Mission-Critical Production in environments where there is no room for error.
