PLAZAMEDIA stages fight night with strict safety and hygiene concept

In view of the COVID 19 pandemic, the boxing night at the event location ziegelei101 will be held in Ismaning with a strict safety and hygiene concept without an audience on site. A lighting concept by star light designer Ollie Olma, among others, provides for an impressive atmosphere despite these circumstances: Studio floor and ceiling are equipped with the most modern show light and take the spectators with them into a fighting arena of a special kind. The event branding is all about the Trophy's namesake, boxing legend Muhammad Ali. The official press conference was also held yesterday on the PLAZAMEDIA grounds in Ismaning, and today the official weigh-in took place.

In addition to the entire technical production of the worldfeed, PLAZAMEDIA as production service provider will also handle the post-production and production of shoulder content, the worldwide distribution of the broadcast signals via satellite, fibre and livestream, as well as the handling of all national and international media partners, archive and CMS (Content Management System) services for the World Boxing Super Series and all media partners and, in the run-up to the fight night, the livestreams of the press conference and weigh-in.

„We are full of anticipation for the spectacular Final in this extraordinary ambience“, says a delighted Andreas Benz, Managing Director of Comosa AG, which organizes the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS). „It is the fifth Final in the history of the WBSS and the first to be held in Germany. We are bringing the Muhammad Ali Trophy to Germany and presenting the two current best cruiserweight fighters in the world in Mairis Briedis and IBF World Champion Yuniel Dorticos.“

Jens Friedrichs, Chairman of the Management Board of PLAZAMEDIA GmbH: „The World Boxing Super Series Final tomorrow night will not only make boxing history. By staging this world-class boxing event in Germany in these extraordinary times marked by the effects of the pandemic, PLAZAMEDIA is also sending out a signal of great importance for our production site: Thanks to our innovative and highly-modern infrastructure, the know-how of our excellent team and our comprehensive safety and hygiene concept, we can stage events of the highest standard for customers from a wide range of sectors and for all media platforms.“
