Professional Fighters League
The Professional Fighters League (PFL) is a global mixed martial arts organization that reinvented the sport with a sports-season structure - a regular season, playoffs, and a championship where fighters compete for real money instead of matchmaker whim. Founded in 2017 by venture capitalist Donn Davis, PFL broadcasts to 160+ countries, has expanded into regional leagues across Europe, Africa, MENA and the Pacific, acquired rival Bellator MMA in 2023, and signed marquee names like Francis Ngannou and Jake Paul. It positions itself as the credible global challenger to the UFC.
Combate Global
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.
