Promoters will still need to organize and provide the venue, ring, announcer, lighting, etc., as well as handle any athlete-related matters.
No. Although the majority of WBC LIVE content will air in 4K, promoters’ personal channels will stream in a maximum resolution of 1920x1080p, as they are strictly web-based.

Live Events in UHD: Most Coveted Ticket on TV
Ultra HD viewers will be demanding to see compelling 4K content, especially live sports events on their brand new TV screens.
The success of live sports in Ultra HD is accelerating, so we [SES] have set up a dedicated SES Events channel as part of our Ultra HD platform, which offers the world’s largest channel lineup of linear 4K content, reception gear, and satellite distribution.
The Era of Streaming Niche Sports Dawns
Besides the incumbent television companies, tech powerhouses like Amazon, Facebook and YouTube are experimenting with sports rights.
"It is the greatest time to be a sports fan in the history of the world," says Burke Magnus, the ESPN executive in charge of programming

World's 1st Linear 4K HDR Network and Live Event Platform
VIVE Network aims to fill the UHD entertainment void by democratizing the production, distribution, and monetization of live UHD HDR content, such as niche sports with massive fan bases, thereby addressing the demand of multimillions of UHD viewers worldwide.
VIVE has developed a workflow that eliminates the need for satellite trucks, therefore allowing for small footprint at venues and backhauling to a central studio that packages and prepares streams for distribution in real time to all devices globally.
UHD Initiative
We Make It Our Mission to Break the Rules of Traditional TV
VIVE Network’s Objectives
Given the number of UHD screens sold globally, there is a deficit of premium UHD HDR content which makes for a captive audience.
Lifestyle and sports entertainment is fragmented as it is, and consumers are cord-cutting in favor of à la carte choices. Aggregating the best collection of UHD entertainment is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
VIVE’s interest is propelling the initiative to proliferate premium UHD HDR entertainment, hence VIVE champions the notion of all for one and one for all. In the case of its ’open’ and accessible PaaS for content owners, it’s all about flexibility and scalability.
Steady supply of quality programming ensures regular consumption, so VIVE has devised a mechanism whereby to train and recruit aspiring film and television production professionals entirely within the realm of ultra-high definition.

The UHD Opportunity
Major Milestone
Earlier this year the BBC received a total of 1.6 million requests for its 4K UHD test streams of World Cup and Wimbledon.
– Forbes.com, July 24, 2018
There will be over 220 million homes worldwide with an Ultra HD television at the end of 2018, an increase of 50% in twelve months. That figure is expected to jump to 600 million led by North American household adoption of 71% by 2023.
–Strategy Analytics
The success of Ultra HDTV has been driven by technology adoption rather than content and services. 4K video and TV services are now becoming more widely available, meeting the expectations of 4K Ultra HDTV owners for the best quality TV experience.
– David Mercer, Strategy Analytics

This has been a great year for Ultra HD with audience demand reaching new heights thanks to the draw of exciting live events.
While 2018 was the year of the 4K ramp up, 2019 will be all about Ultra HD growth and expansion, as we continue to collaborate with networks and content producers to bring new and brand name channels, live events, and more Pay TV providers and viewers into the world of Ultra HD. Stay tuned!
