Recent history shows BALY often trading lower following balance-sheet and transaction news, even when announcements appear strategically positive.

Recent Company History

Over the last few months, Bally’s has focused on balance-sheet restructuring and portfolio repositioning. Key steps included increasing revolving credit commitments to $670M, advancing a $735M Twin River Lincoln sale‑leaseback, and completing the €2.7B International Interactive sale, which reduced secured debt and reshaped its business mix. An amended commitment letter added up to $1.1B in term loan capacity. Against that backdrop, today’s Bally’s Atlantic City boxing combine news highlights efforts to drive traffic and entertainment value at property level rather than alter capital structure.

Analysis

This announcement highlights Bally’s efforts to enhance Bally’s Atlantic City as an entertainment destination through a televised TBL boxing combine, with over 100 fighters expected in a 13,000-square-foot setup and national broadcast plans.

Investors may watch how such events translate into property traffic, gaming revenue, and future partnership expansions.

Key Terms

1 terms

simulcast technical

"including a Spanish-language simulcast designed to engage TBL's strong Latin fanbase"

A simulcast is a live event or announcement transmitted at the same time across multiple channels—such as webcast, radio, TV, or social platforms—so all viewers hear the same information simultaneously. For investors it matters because simultaneous distribution reduces the chance that some people get material news earlier than others, improving fairness and allowing everyone to react based on the same real-time information, much like multiple rooms watching the same live feed.

Over 100 fighters expected for three-day event highlighting emerging talent

NEW YORK, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TBL Team Boxing League ("TBL") today announced they will host the first-ever televised open boxing tryouts, taking place January 16^th-18^th at Bally's Atlantic City in the Traymore Ballroom - this is the first step in an evolving relationship with Bally's and TBL. The event represents a major opportunity for emerging talent from across the East Coast to compete, be evaluated by professional coaches, and potentially earn a spot in TBL's Season 4 lineup. Over 100 fighters have already registered for the combine, which combines athletic testing, live entertainment, and fan engagement. This marks the first time in TBL history - and in the sport of boxing - that participants from all backgrounds can compete in an open casting call for professional team-based boxing. Fans are invited to catch all of the action with free admission to watch the tryouts.

Inside a 13,000-square-foot proving ground at Bally's Traymore Ballroom, athletes will progress through multiple evaluation stations, including:

• Fitness, endurance, and strength testing
• Punching power, speed, and accuracy measurement
• Footwork, hand/eye coordination, and sprint performance
• Heavy bag, speed bag, jump rope, and box jumps
• Live sparring and pad work inside two regulation boxing rings

All three days of the combine will be filmed for national broadcast and streaming, including a Spanish-language simulcast designed to engage TBL's strong Latin fanbase. Broadcast partners will be announced in the coming days, but TBL is emphasizing the national TV exposure to attract athletes and viewers alike.

The combine will also give fans unprecedented insight into the subtleties of being a fighter, including how athletes are evaluated individually and within the team dynamic. The evaluation process over three days will determine potential team selections for Season 4. TBL is also exploring opportunities for fan engagement through potential "fan favorite" voting, allowing viewers to have a voice in the team-building process.

"The TBL Boxing Combine represents a groundbreaking opportunity for emerging talent across the East Coast to showcase their skills in a high-energy, fan-driven environment. With over 100 athletes already signed up, we're thrilled to bring this unique team-based boxing experience to Bally's Atlantic City," said Kevin Cassidy, CEO of TBL Team Boxing League. "This event is just the beginning of our collaboration with Bally's, as we look forward to expanding our innovative league to multiple locations, delivering unforgettable experiences for athletes and fans alike."

"We're excited to partner with TBL to host their boxing combine at Bally's Atlantic City, bringing world-class athletic competition and live entertainment to our guests," added Soo Kim, Chairman of Bally's. "This collaboration aligns perfectly with our commitment to immersive experiences that captivate audiences, drive tourism, and enhance our entertainment portfolio. We look forward to expanding this partnership, creating a new destination for sports and entertainment across Bally's properties."
