What I love about them is how they are willing to experiment with different formats. They stand out in a sea of "us too"/UFC-lite MMA promotions. Plus their owner (or CEO, whatever) is like how I would be if I owned an MMA promotion. You can tell he loves the fights and the stories behind the fighters
I hope this lromotion succeed, they're awesome at bringing entertaining fights.
I love the South American athmosphere, it's like watching boxing.
Why do you keep referring to Combate Americas as South American? It's true that it's focused on the Spanish speaking market, but the CEO Campbell McLaren is American and most of their events take place in the U.S. or Mexico, both of which are in North America. Most of their roster of fighters are American or Mexican or from other countries in Central America, which is also part of the North American continent.I hope this lromotion succeed, they're awesome at bringing entertaining fights.

They are covered fairly regularly on most MMA media sites and especially lately since DAZN added their English language broadcasts to the service. Very fun promotion to watch with a lot of finishes.
I would strongly disagree. I rarely see them on sites, and on fight nights the message boards have 0 chatter about the shows.
In between the expiration of the Fight Lass contract and now being on DAZN, Univision was their only outlet, and coverage of their events went way down. Their ceo Campbell McClaren actually made a bit of a stink about it, and called out Heleani. Apparently their ratings on Univision often equal or exceed what the UFC often does on FS1.U ain't paying attention this shit was all over mma sites

I don't have Univision myself, as my cable doesn't offer it with most standard packages in my region.Not about to pay for a channel for one show, either. I will say that McClaren had a good point when he went after the mma media for their lack of coverage, considering most of the popular mma media sites are American based, as is Combate, while plenty of outside organizations like Rizin, KSW, ACB, and ONE are always getting event coverage.it was just hard to watch their events live since univision tape delays Combate, DAZN is the only way to watch their events live.

i would watch this... they have a deal with ESPN Latin America so hopefully they are going to air it live (ussually they make the majority of the evenst on tape delay)
The broadcast team is 100% mexican, maybe the same team that go live in Mexican tv... ESPN LA aired some events at 2 or 3 am on ESPN3. (of course tape delay)Really? Never heard of that or watched ESPN LA broadcasting MMA
Yeah that's pretty nice.
This is how you make a poster.
