Oh good I have TUDN but not Univision so only get the Spanish Broadcast. Not that it really matters but nice to have English commentary.

Also good on Combate... shows are decent... I'll check it out.

 

[Wrestler160]

And here I thought they were going to BUY Bellator!!!

Thats a good way to make sure I never watch it, put it behind a non sports paywall.

Paramount Plus has a pretty nice sports catalog coming along…

Combate taking over.

Combate will be absorbing bellator very soon.

Paramount Plus carries all the soccer streaming rights for most of the major leagues in Europe and south america. If you are going for the hispanic market, putting Combate on there with soccer makes all the sense.

 

[GueseGuy]

Lmfao one step closer to buying Bellator

 

[Bubba32]

Also sounds like bellators days on Showtime are coming to an end. I wonder how bellator on paramount + will go.

One step at a time, first streaming, then every American tv station, buy out Bellator, then UFC is next

 

[You Will Vote For Dreyga]

Proof that Combate is bigger than Bellator

Proof that Combate is bigger than Bellator

I mean how many people live in Mexico and Latin America? Combate is bigger then UFC. Can't beat the Goat Chatri tho with billions of viewers in Asia

 

[Hellowhosthat]

One step at a time, first streaming, then every American tv station, buy out Bellator, then UFC is next

Then WWE, NFL and the Champions League.

World fucking domination

 

[SokoudjouFanboy]

Combate taking over.

Combate will be absorbing bellator very soon.

That might have legs if Cambell McLaren is as good a marketing guru as he and yourself claim. The roster of a true competitor exists in Bellator but they need new strategic partners to get that roster more recognition.

Paramount+ is expected to air 30 live Combate Global events annually in 2022 and 2023, while CBS Sports Network will complement that coverage with a one-hour recap show following each event. Additionally, CBS Sports Network will feature re-airs of past Combate events, while the promotion’s entire fight library will be available on Paramount+.

"The addition of Combate Global’s exciting MMA action is a tremendous opportunity for Paramount+ to further expand its reach to a young and diverse fanbase,” said Executive Vice President and General Manage of CBS Sports Digital Jeffrey Gerttula in a release. “We believe Combate events will complement the expansive live soccer programming that is now a cornerstone of our industry-leading sports coverage on the service and deliver even more unique sports content across CBS Sports platforms.”

This is confirmation Viacom is replacing bellator/coker with Combate/Cambell Mclaren.
