Hirsch, 18, has been picking sports winners since the age of 10 and is recognized as the world’s best teenage sports handicapper and analyst. He has become a popular social influencer with more than 350,000 Instagram followers. Hirsch will join the IMPACT broadcast team alongside boxing great Antonio Tarver, who will call the action from ringside.

Starting with events in November, December 2020, and then regularly in 2021, Hirsch will provide analysis and interview boxers before and after each fight.

SMH and IMPACT recently entered into a 5-year deal to bring live boxing matches on Saturday nights from 10:30 pm to 12:30 am ET, with 36 events slated for 2021. The program is sponsored by T&K Boxing Promotions in association with DiBella Entertainment.

“I’m so excited to be working with the IMPACT Network and to be paired up with Tarver, and Bhatia,” said Zach. “This is going to be an awesome experience and I can’t wait to get started!”

Zach’s new role as an official analyst with IMPACT makes him the youngest professional combat sports analyst in the world, and it’s his youth and social media prowess that made him the best fit for the role, according to Steve Marcano of SMH Group.

“Zach personifies the future of what all entertainment is becoming: live events, tied to social media,” Marcano said. “He is smart, articulate, and understands that the new wave of the sport of boxing is all about the social media base, and the fact that he’s already interacted with many of the key players, like the Paul brothers and KSI made him a very attractive draw for our new series on IMPACT. Zach is going to do great things in his life, and at age 18, he’s got quite a future ahead of him.”
