Nielsen research indicates that an astounding 91 percent of Combate Global viewers in the U.S. are not regular viewers of other MMA content, demonstrating that Combate Global has garnered a new MMA audience with its World Cup-style, country vs. country-style competition.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Combate Global<\/a> today announced a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fight card headlined by a lightweight (155 pounds) main event bout between Mexican star and 2021 \u201cFighter of the Year\u201d award winner Cristian \u201cPuas\u201d Perez (8-1) and Spanish standout Sebastian Santana Guedes (8-4-1) on Friday, April 22, live on Univision (12 a.m. ET\/PT) and TUDN USA (12 a.m. ET\/9 p.m. PT) in the U.S. from Miami, Fla.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old Perez of Ensenada, B.C., Mexico was nearly unstoppable in 2021, winning five straight fights \u2013 four by way of (T)KO or submission \u2013 in a span of just seven months before losing a unanimous decision to Enrique \u201cBaby Bull\u201d Gonzalez in the championship stage of a one-night, eight-man tournament last November 12.<\/p>\n

Santana Guedes is a 27-year-old native of Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, Spain, a hotbed for MMA, and a veteran of Combate Global\u2019s first-ever, one-night European tournament that took place last August 1. He has earned five of his eight professional career victories by way of submission.<\/p>\n
