Combate Americas will be getting some airtime on national television.
The promotion has partnered with Telemundo, the second largest Spanish television network in America, to televise a portion of their eight-man bantamweight tournament, Copa Combate. The tournament is set to take place on Nov. 11 at 11:30 p.m. ET in Cancun, Mexico.
Copa Combate marks the first time Telemundo will broadcast a live MMA event. The entire event will stream online on TelemundoDeportes.com and the Telemundo Now app. Only the semifinals, finals, and the card’s co-main event — a women’s strawweight bout between Melissa Martinez and Gloria Bravo — will air live on Telemundo.
