The debut of the "PBC on NBC" will be March 7, and will be hosted by Al Michaels, a seven-time Emmy Award winner and the author of a recently-released New York Times best-selling autobiography.

In the coming weeks, additional "PBC on NBC" on-air personalities will be announced along with future show airdates and times for NBC and NBCSN telecasts.

Within the 20 live shows, NBC Sports Group will present more than 50 hours of PBC coverage, including NBCSN pre- and post-fight programming for NBC telecasts.

The breakdown of the 20 live "PBC on NBC" events is as follows (specific dates and times to be announced):

· 6 Saturday afternoon shows on NBC

· 9 Saturday primetime shows on NBCSN

NBC Sports Group will provide Spanish-language (SAP) audio for all live telecasts. In addition, NBC UNIVERSO, the modern general entertainment cable channel for Latinos launching on Feb. 1, will televise encore presentations of select shows.

All "PBC on NBC" shows will be streamed live on NBC Sports Live Extra via "TV Everywhere," giving consumers additional value for their subscription service, and making high quality content available to MVPD customers both in and out of the home and on multiple platforms.
