For the second time boxing will be televised in the United States in 3D. This friday tune into one of four ESPN channels that will be airing the 3D footage for your boxing enjoyment.
ESPN’s Feb. 18 telecast from Salisbury, Md., marked the first time boxing has aired in 3D in the U.S. It was enough of a success that Friday Night Fights will be aired AGAIN in 3D this friday. Joe Tessitore and Teddy Atlas will call the action ringside from the Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, Calif.
“3D is most impactful when you have close proximity to the subject. Nothing offers closer proximity than boxing. It truly makes you feel like you have a ringside seat,” said Phil Orlins, coordinating producer for ESPN 3D.
“TV is all about access and bringing the viewer close to the game. 3D is arguably the biggest step closer to the ultimate real life experience that TV has ever been able to take. Nothing makes you feel closer to the action than watching boxing in 3D.”
You can find the program on ESPN2, ESPN3D, ESPN Deportes and ESPN3.com.
