Combate Global is the leading Hispanic mixed martial arts promotion, founded in 2011 by UFC co-creator Campbell McLaren. Built around the conviction that Latino fight fans were underserved, it produces live events, reality television and streaming content showcasing emerging Hispanic fighters, broadcasting across the United States, Latin America and Spanish-speaking markets worldwide.
Campbell McLaren is the co-creator of the UFC and the CEO and founder of Combate Global, the first Hispanic MMA sports and media franchise. The Scottish-born, American-raised TV producer dreamed up a 'no rules' fighting tournament inspired by the video game Mortal Kombat, produced the first 22 UFC events, and coined the slogan that both built and nearly buried the sport. Decades later he reinvented himself by betting on Latino fighters and audiences, building Combate Global into one of the most valuable combat sports organizations in the world.
