ProElite Signs DVD Distribution Agreement Deal
Thursday, 20 March 2008
ProElite, Inc. a sports entertainment and media company dedicated to producing world-class mixed martial arts (MMA) events, today announced it has signed an agreement with Mill Creek Entertainment to distribute DVDs showcasing ProElite’s premier global MMA brands: Rumble on the Rock, ICON Sport and Cage Rage.

Under the terms of the agreement, events will be distributed to retailers nationwide in the form of multi-event DVD box sets. The first box set will be the Rumble on the Rock “Superstar Collection” (5-event set) featuring MMA superstars Anderson Silva, BJ Penn, “Tank” Abbott, Takanori Gomi and Jake Shields (street date: March 18, 2008). Future DVD box sets will include such superstars as Matt Hughes, Rich Franklin, Robbie Lawler and Vitor Belfort.

“This is an excellent opportunity to leverage our existing library that features three of our premier MMA brands,” said Douglas DeLuca, executive chairman and co-founder of ProElite. “Through the years, the biggest names in the sport have fought in these shows, which, in many cases, will now be available on DVD for the first time.”

“Partnering with an industry leader such as Mill Creek ensures that our DVDs will receive optimal distribution to retailers in important markets throughout the country,” said Turi Altavilla, vice president of home entertainment at ProElite.

“Audiences are hungry for high-quality MMA content that showcases their favorite stars,” said Jeff Hayne, director of content acquisition at Mill Creek Entertainment. “ProElite’s MMA library is an ideal entrée for DVD box sets featuring top-notch MMA action, as well as providing retailers with a compelling product that we believe will draw customers far and wide.”
