Combate Global To Stage One-Night, Eight-Man Tournament
On Sat, May 29, Combate Global will cut itself a slice of MMA history in the state of Florida by becoming the first MMA promotion to stage a one-night eight-man MMA tournament in the Sunshine state.
The announced lineup consists of four U.S. fighters and four Mexican fighters. The athletes will be placed into separate pools, based on the country they represent for the quarters and the semi-finals, which will set up a Mexico-US final.
“The eight-man tournament is how I launched the UFC, and it is one of the ways that Combate has distinguished itself from other MMA organizations,” said Combate Global CEO Campbell McLaren.
